Kazuhide Takahama (Nobeoka, 1930 – Bologna, 10 febbraio 2010)

Born in 1930, he studied architecture in Tokyo and after graduation joined Kazuo Fujioka's studio.
In 1957 he came to Italy to supervise the architectural installation of the pavilion with which Japan participated for the first time in the XI Triennale di Milano, where he met the designer and entrepreneur Dino Gavina (1922-2007) with whom he began a professional collaboration that would last a lifetime. Consequently, in 1964 he moved to Bologna and went to work as a furniture and lamp designer in the San Lazzaro factory.
In 1968 Gavina sold his company Gavina SPA to Knoll International, with its Foligno factory designed by Achille Castiglioni, and founded the Simon International manufacturing company (later acquired by Cassina) together with Maria Simoncini (1927-2010) and the following year opened the Marcel Duchamp exhibition and commercial center in Bologna with the participation of the famous Dadaist painter and photographer Man Ray.
In these new locations, Takahama had the opportunity to collaborate with the famous architect and designer Carlo Scarpa and in the following years he carried out an intense professional activity that led to the creation of furniture and lamps of various types, which still constitute works of art, always characterized by great simplicity and formal cleanliness and very often rigorous like Zen compositions.
His colleagues said that he was so silent that he was called "the stone man" but his presence was clearly perceptible.
Takahama continued to work as a designer until his death in 2010.
