"The Chin Family" represents a new example of playfulness: The caps, key rings, magnet sets, bookmarkers and cell phone charms are all printed on individual pieces as if they were wooden figures or porcelain dolls and the details of their clothing's oriental decorations, typical of Stefano Giovannoini's design, are painted by hand.
These new objects are the continuation of "The Chin Family" Collection created fom the joint project between Alessi and the National Palace Museum in Taiwan. In addition to the National Palace Museum management, Alessi asked distinguished designer and architect Stefano Giovannoni to design a mascot for the new face that NPM wants to give to the 21st century. For the "A di Alessi" catalogue a series of little characters was created from the mascot, each of whom a household function.
