'samarcanda' easy chair 1998, for campeggi


do you discuss your work with architects and designers?

nobody, milan is the city of solitude, nobody.

describe your style, like a good friend of yours would describe it.
style is a word which I detest, I think that the two greatest architects
of this century were frank lloyd wright and le corbusier,
I try do design as simply as possible, remove excess.
I like mies when he said less is more.
I think that this is the proper way to understand our work.
