Mascheroni: one atelier, two languages — Heritage and Contemporaneo

Mascheroni Contemporaneo executive desk in leather and wood

Few workshops speak two dialects with equal fluency. Mascheroni does: a Heritage line that carries the classical grammar of the executive office, and a Contemporaneo line that strips it back to clean volumes — both drawn from the same hands in Cabiate, in Italy's Brianza furniture district. What began roughly fifty years ago as a small laboratory became, in the 1980s, a name recognised well beyond Italy, without ever leaving hand assembly behind.

That range lets one brand answer two very different briefs — a traditional boardroom and a pared-down leadership floor — with the same leather-and-solid-wood quality. La Mercanti specifies Mascheroni abroad with real hide and timber samples, so an international project can choose its language and still receive the Cabiate standard of finish.

FAQ

What are the Heritage and Contemporaneo lines?

Heritage is Mascheroni's classical executive language; Contemporaneo is its pared-back, modern one. Both share the same hand assembly. La Mercanti advises which line fits an international brief.

Does one brand cover both traditional and modern offices?

Yes: the two lines let Mascheroni furnish a classical boardroom or a minimal leadership floor with the same leather-and-wood quality. La Mercanti aligns the choice to the project.
