ANTONIO CITTERIO<br />
THE<br />
GENTLEMAN<br />
OF<br />
ITALIAN<br />
DESIGN<br />
Antonio Citterio shapes international<br />
design like few others.<br />
The Milan-based architect and designer’s creations<br />
are usually based on existing styles. “Above all else,<br />
I am an architect,” commented the analytical spirit,<br />
who takes his inspiration from modern life and living<br />
in the world’s cities. Citterio’s top priority is always the<br />
room space as a whole. The product comes second.<br />
At 13, he designed his first piece in his<br />
father’s furniture workshop.<br />
At 18, he received a design award for a handmade<br />
cupboard. At the age of 22, he opened his first office,<br />
even before completing his architecture studies in Milan.<br />
Today, some fifty employees work on international<br />
architecture, interior and design projects: From the Milan<br />
metro to offices and hotels. Citterio’s work also stands<br />
for modern living design. In 2007, he received the title<br />
“Royal Designer” from the British Royal Society.
