THE HISTORY OF THE OBJECT. Luca Meda was a master of design, and his genius shone above all in his radio designs. His passion for precision and functionality has made him a true artist in taming technology, transforming it into objects of unparalleled beauty. His radios were not simple devices, but functional works of art. With astonishing precision, Meda drew every detail, providing precise inputs and impeccable proportions. But what made his designs truly special was the ability to convey the harmony between the external casing and the complexity of the internal mechanics. Luca Meda's radios were much more than technological objects; they were expressions of elegance and innovation. Through his work, he managed to capture the beauty of industrialized production, combining form and function in an extraordinary way. His contribution to the world of radio design is a lasting legacy, a tribute to his dedication to aesthetics without compromising utility, practicality and precision. Luca Meda created objects that not only satisfied technical needs, but also thrilled with their timeless beauty. Radiomarelli was founded in 1929 as part of the Fabbrica Italiana Magneti Marelli, a company founded as early as 1919. During the 1930s, Radiomarelli became a leader in the production of radios, consolidating its position in Italy. During the economic boom of the 1950s and 1960s, the company expanded its product range, also introducing televisions. The collaboration with RCA began in 1930, leading to the creation of high-quality radio sets. However, with technological evolution and the arrival of color television in the 1970s, the company had to face new challenges. Despite the difficulties, Radiomarelli maintained its prominent position in the Italian market until the 1980s. Its historical importance is not only linked to quality products, but also to the pioneering role it had in the development of the Italian electronics industry.
