SPECIAL NOTE
Luciano Nustrini was a Florentine architect known primarily for his specialization in airport design. He won a «Compasso d'Oro» in 1957 for the design of the PA1 stools. In the last 16 years of his life, before dying in a plane crash, he moved to New Zealand where he embraced an academic role, teaching architecture at a local university.
