The Breskachin family celebrates this year the 40th anniversary of their offspring — the company Milldue. Stefano Breskachin tells about the main landmarks in her stories

MILLDUE is a family business. The reins of power belong to the founder of the brand Mario Breskachin and his two sons. “We have a clear division of responsibilities in our family,” Stefano tells. “My older brother Giorgio is the manager, I do marketing and development, and Mario is the boss!” The company was founded in 1976 and presented its debut collection in the same year. "36" is one of the first modular programs for decorating the bathroom, including both furniture and plumbing. “The company is constantly evolving,” says Stefano, “last year we finally divided our model line into two separate lines. Classic is now released under the brand MITAGE, and collections with a strict, concise design, under the brand name NOORTH. This is a logical step, which has its own background. ” In 2006, the company began cooperation with two of the brightest and extravagant designers of the interior industry — Alessandro La Spada and Samuele Mazza. The result of their creative duet was the Majestic and Four Seasons collections, which embodied a completely new, modern look at the classic style in the bathroom interior.

The forms of furniture, plumbing and accessories are simple, although they clearly recognize the classic prototype, and the finishes are luxurious: oak, macassar, marble, onyx, leather, platinum. “At some point, these collections determined the main direction of development for MILLDUE, but it was far from the only one,” Stefano says. Three or four years ago, we realized that both directions are equally important for us, but in order to translate different tastes, we must simplify communication with the client, making it more transparent. So we decided to launch two new brands — MITAGE and NOORTH. For their development, we attract both designers who have already collaborated with us and new authors. I'm talking about the architect Massimo Yosa Guini, who embodied the characteristic image of MILLDUE for luxury without pathos in the new Algonquin collection, which debuted at the last exhibition in Milan. The Milan review, by the way, showed that the market responded well to the emergence of two new brands. Yes, they are young, but behind them is the experience and history of the company MILLDUE. ”
