Born in Brianza, Italy, Tura developed a passion for design from an early age. He studied at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, where he honed his skills in painting and sculpture.
In the 1930s, Tura established his own workshop in Lombardy, specializing in furniture production. He quickly gained recognition for his innovative approach to design, combining traditional techniques with modern aesthetics. Tura's creations were characterized by their use of luxurious materials, such as parchment, lacquer, and brass, which he skillfully transformed into elegant and timeless pieces.
Tura's work often featured bold colors and geometric patterns, reflecting the influence of the Art Deco movement. He drew inspiration from various sources, including the natural world, ancient civilizations, and contemporary art. Tura's designs exuded a sense of sophistication and refinement, attracting the attention of discerning clients and collectors.
Throughout his career, Tura collaborated with prominent architects and interior designers, creating bespoke furniture and decorative objects for prestigious projects. His pieces were sought after by affluent individuals and institutions worldwide, including royal families, celebrities, and museums.
Tura's iconic creations include his signature "Goat Skin" chairs, which showcased his mastery of working with parchment. These chairs, with their distinctive curved lines and exquisite craftsmanship, became synonymous with Tura's name and were highly coveted by collectors.
Despite his success, Tura remained dedicated to his craft, constantly experimenting with new materials and techniques. His commitment to quality and attention to detail ensured that each piece he produced was a work of art in its own right.
Tragically, Tura's life was cut short in 1963 when he passed away at the age of 54. However, his legacy lives on through his timeless designs, which continue to inspire and captivate furniture enthusiasts and collectors around the world.
Aldo Tura's contributions to the world of furniture and decorative arts have solidified his place as one of Italy's most influential and celebrated designers.
