It's the turning point. The production of the first analog telephones demonstrated to the market the design autonomy and technological competence of the company.
It is the birth of "domestic telephones" which controls access to Italian homes.
Today it is an iconic object, but for a long time it represented one of the most used means of communication in everyday life by ordinary people. Practical and economical, it has changed the habits of people throughout the peninsula.
A monitor and an intercom are placed side by side, connected and inserted into a plastic-coated wooden cabinet to create a video intercom. The idea took some time to be well received, becoming a massively distributed product a few years later.
Another milestone in the history of telecommunications: an additional tool for using public telephones, without having to search for or change coins to pay for phone calls.
The era of services begins: what do Italians need to make everyday life easier? Services that simplify usual activities and satisfy any need immediately, improving the experience of those who use them.
