Philosophy

Since the beginning of his career Enrico developed his design approach as a combination of direct exposure to the Italian artistic heritage and a deep commitment to the creative exploration of complexity in architecture and design.

The dual architectural and engineering background playsa critical role in keeping his work at the intersection of design, craftmanship and cutting edge technologies. He spent over a decade working side with state-of-the-art Italian fabricators and learnt how to shape his ideas with the finest design solutions and details.

Enrico honors elements in nature and in the human cultural heritage to inform his design on a multidimensional level. His creations are always the result of a multidisciplinary approach and hide, under the exterior surface, their source of inspiration.
