About Us

Arper is a global design brand that envisions products for the ways we live.
Founded in 1989 as an evolution of a leather artisan enterprise launched by the Feltrin family in the 1980s, the company was created by the father Luigi (President of Honour until his passing in 2020), together with his sons Mauro and Claudio Feltrin, current President. A family-owned and independent company driven by a deep sensitivity to those who use its products, Arper offers, through empathetic and enduring solutions and products, a perspective of the contemporary way of life that expresses needs for fluidity and versatility.

Arper approaches design through the project of living, a dialogue that embraces change, whether it concerns the world as a whole or people as they evolve: “Underlying everything we do is a sensitivity towards the communities, relationships, environments, and individuals for whom we design. We believe that spaces shape ideas. We aspire to a beautiful world. We create furnishings that support harmonious, comfortable living in its many forms that inspire and grow with us over time. We create spaces and solutions to move forward with intelligence and ease. Together, with our clients and partners, we design the world we want to live in, with openness and humanity”.
Sustainability plays a central role for Arper, which aims to become an example of responsible business.

The strong drive to succeed in the international markets has distinguished the company since its inception. Arper develops about 90 percent of its sales in international markets: in addition to Europe, the U.S., the Middle and Far East contribute to the total turnover of 48 million in 2025. Arper is distributed in 90 countries.

The company employs a total of 250 people in Italy and abroad. Arper owns 14 spaces around the world. Of these, five are the headquarters of the Group's subsidiaries: New York, (Arper USA), Dubai (Arp Middle East), London (Arper UK), Tokyo (Arper Japan) and Mexico City (Arper LATAM); The showrooms in Milan, Stockholm, Cologne, Amsterdam, Chicago and Los Angeles are used as exhibition spaces, branded spaces and meeting points for local design communities. There is also an in-house showroom at the Treviso Headquarters. Lastly the meeting hub in Munich (Germany) and the branch in Singapore complete the list.

SPACES AND SOLUTIONS FOR THE PROJECT OF LIVING

Life is in constant change. We live, work, pause, travel, in fluid and interconnected ways. Spaces are required to silently support us, to make us feel good as we move at our own pace.

At Arper, we listen and observe what surrounds us. Together with our partners, we shape solutions that are intuitive and responsive. Environments that integrate seamlessly, enhancing experiences, simplifying transitions, creating harmony. Sustainability drives our choices. We explore, research, and innovate - rethinking traditional resources, experimenting with new solutions and designing with care for today and tomorrow. A continuous pursuit of balance between creativity and responsibility.

Looking ahead, we imagine what’s next: environments that connect, simplify, and inspire, driven toward people and the planet’s wellbeing.


REDEFINING BEAUTY

Redefining Beauty is our intention. We aim for a beauty that embraces natural qualities over perfection, that values care over abundance, that seeks meaning over novelty. A beauty not just seen but felt, through spaces that enrich the way we live. Redefining Beauty comes to life through innovative materials in design and the responsible reinterpretation of iconic collections, proving that creating with greater care and responsibility is possible.

SPACES AND SOLUTIONS

How can design empower and inspire new kinds of spaces? At a moment when it’s more relevant and necessary than ever, modularity has always been core to our design approach. Rigorously modular and endlessly flexible and customizable, our agile systems can be adapted with ease to diverse and changing needs and spaces, allowing easy assembly and disassembly for maintenance, reuse, and recycling.

SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES

How can design help to build a more responsible business and a more sustainable future? We explore innovative materials and responsible production to reduce our environmental impact without compromising on beauty or function. By reimagining iconic collections through a more conscious lens, we turn sustainability into a creative opportunity.

CULTURE AND IDEAS

How does design foster dialogue, grow community, and build connections? We believe in the profound impact of culture— exploration, experimentation, and expansive thinking — to educate and inform the world of design. We’re building a legacy of support to enrich our community, steward our brand, deepen our perspective, and contribute meaningfully to the future. Our many efforts, including the Arper Feltrin Foundation, A Lot With Little curated by Noemi Blager, and the Lina Bo Bardi Bowl Chair, showcase the power of culture in design and our aspiration to share new practices, methods of production, and ways of living.
