Hillsideout

Hillsideout is a joint studio by Andrea Zambelli and Nat Wilms which came to life in 2009 out of a mutual concern over the degradation of abandoned sites in the Italian Apennines. Hillsideout expresses the need to transform the state of uselessness and forgotten stories into practical functionality. Ancient and mainly medieval mountain villages are the starting point for transforming the past into “living memory”. Hillsideout brings the past into the present in the form of uniquely handcrafted contemporary Italian furniture.
