Pietro Virzi was born in Enna in 1954, but raised in Milan. There, he began learning the vocation of upholsterer at a very early age, collaborating with the most talented artisans in the city.
In 1981 he launched his company, VI.MA.S. It specializes in designing and producing a wide variety of custom furniture, from chairs and curtains to luxurious wallcoverings created with fabric in tension.
Careful research is carried out to ensure only prime quality fabrics and materials are selected, including the latest-generation organzas and polyesters, as well as innovative flameproof products.
VI.MA.S has worked with leading architecture studios in Milan right from the start, and since 2014 has been responsible for the interior design of all the Christian Dior retail outlets in Italy. In 2018 Pietro Virzi was awarded the title of MAM-Maestro d’Arte e Mestiere (Master of Arts and Crafts) by the Cologni Foundation for the Métiers d’Art.
