At 8pm on a Friday winter evening, Claudio Luti would usually be on his way to St Moritz; week days are for working hard, but weekends are spent out of the city – skiing in the mountains from Christmas to Easter, and by the sea in Portofino during summer. But Luti, owner of the Italian company Kartell, which is known for its brightly coloured acrylic furniture, hasn’t yet left his office. Last October, he took over as the president of Cosmit, the company that runs the Salone Internazionale del Mobile – Milan’s furniture fair that takes place every April.
以往冬天每到周五晚8点时，克劳迪奥•鲁提(Claudio Luti)就会去圣莫里兹(St Moritz)度假；他平时发奋工作，到了周末则出城度假——从圣诞节至复活节(Easter)去山里滑雪，夏季则去波托非诺(Portofino)海边度假。但意大利卡特尔公司(Kartell)老板鲁提如今依然在自己的办公室加班，因为去年10月，他又接任了米兰国际家具展公司(Cosmit)主席——米兰家具展(Salone Internazionale del Mobile)每年四月举行。卡特尔公司以生产亚克力材质家具著称于世。
