History
Porada states that everything begins with a love of wood: solid wood worked with the artisanal skill of those who can transform a trunk into a small work of art. The company says it was founded in 1968 by Luigi Allievi with the intention of continuing the chair production he had undertaken in 1948. It reports that his children supported him, promoting a company built on quality and professionalism, and that qualitative excellence and experience in woodworking gave it a solid, well-defined identity. It describes its key to success in international markets as the ability to find the right balance between form and function in every object, together with an evolved and modern yet sober and essential taste for pieces made to last. It states that over half a century this work transformed the founder's dream into reality.
