More and more workplaces are being dedicated to sharing and meeting, but in a creative way to accommodate the new agile working methods that have transformed common areas and meeting rooms into environments for team building activities.
FAS Pendezza started its activity in 1964 at the height of the economic boom, with an intuition of Alfonso Pendezza and his brother Davide: to create instruments for games and entertainment of adults and children, made with raw materials of the highest quality and crafted by the best artisans in the Bergamo tradition.
Since then, the conception of games, intended as an occasion for recreation, has evolved up to the present day when, in addition to their value as an instrument of social aggregation, they enter unexpected contexts such as workspaces to encourage the creative process or for a necessary break. A process made possible thanks also to the Art Direction entrusted to Basaglia + Rota Nodari since 2019, who know how to interpret the new requirements by working alongside Donatella, Simona, Elisabetta and Marco Pendezza, the second generation now at the helm of the company.

Products expressing this unprecedented game/work contamination will be on display at the fair: the Ciclope Capri table football, a special edition inspired by the car “spiaggina”, an Italian beach buggy from the 50s, with chromatic reference to the sky and the sea of the islands and inserts in wood and molded wickerwork, which, thanks to a convenient top, becomes a conversation table or a table top; the Dada table tennis made of two separate modular elements, which when the conjunction with the net is removed, can become a table to seat 16 people; the Etoile billiard table, equipped with a convenient double top which can also become a table. All of these are games that can be transformed as required.
The selection of furniture/games on display is completed by the Ghost indoor table football, with its precious playing area in transparent crystal with metal finishing, and the Attico weights (from 0.5 to 2kg), inspired by the columns of classical architecture. A precious material makes them unique: beech wood, FSC certified, with a range of colours that reflects the typical colouring that the essence takes on in relation to the drying temperature: the higher the temperature, the darker the wood.
