No. 7
Gio Ponti
1960s
From a series of illustrated letters sent by Italian architect and designer Gio Ponti to his publisher Daria Guarnati in the 1960s.
The letters often deal with ordinary matters, but are treated with a sense of play and invention. As he wrote: “Enchantment: a useless thing, but as indispensable as bread.”
The original work is held by Drawing Matter, an organisation that explores the role of drawing in architectural thought and practice. We have collaborated with them to bring highlights from their extraordinary collection to a wider audience. Explore Drawing Matter here

Our frames are fitted with an FSC timber sub-frame, providing stability and longevity to the outer frame and glass.
Your frame is designed to be hung using the split batten method (hanging guide here). This enables your frame to sit flush against the wall. If you would prefer the more traditional option of D-rings and picture wire instead, please leave a note for us at the cart when you place the order.
