Boffi|DePadova Opens A New Showroom In San Francisco

Nearly 20 years ago, Gregory Herman, founder of lifestyle brand 33Sixty, almost went to work for Boffi, the Italian outfit founded in 1934 renowned for its kitchens, bathrooms and wardrobe systems. “I’ve continued to admire their collection and the growth of the brand throughout my career,” he says. In 2015, Boffi merged with Italy-based De Padova, which dates to the 1950s and produces iconic furniture, including pieces by Vico Magistretti and Patricia Urquiola. Now, the stars have aligned, and 33Sixty has partnered with Boffi|DePadova on a showroom in San Francisco—a collaboration Herman describes as embodying a “shared commitment to excellence and timeless aesthetics.” Amid an industrial loft-like setting, products are presented to evoke elegance and warmth. The new showroom, Herman notes, allows clients “unparalleled levels of design and craftsmanship for every room in the house … from Tahoe ski lodges and wine country retreats to San Francisco penthouses and Big Sur estates.” To Roberto Gavazzi, Boffi|DePadova CEO and president, they are offering more than fixtures and furnishings. “Here, we put it all together,” he says. “We are selling a lifestyle.”
