FOXTROT

The world offers so many possibilities and I want to seize them to leave a significant trace for those who will come after us.

MATTEO NUNZIATI

Matteo Nunziati set up his studio in Milan in 2000. Studio Nunziati focuses on architecture for interiors and design by working with top companies in the fields of furniture, lighting and objects. Specialised in designing luxury hotels, , spas and residential projects, he obtained various prestigious awards, including: the 2011 Chicago Good Design Award – USA, the 2011 Wallpaper Design Award – UK, the 2013 Cityscape Award – Saudi Arabia for the best architectural project.

Since 2004 he has been teaching in design institutes and schools such as the National Taipei University of Technology in Taiwan and the IDI Interior Design Institute in Milan. In 2006 he was selected as part of the most representative international designers from 1954 to 2006 for the “50+2y Italian design” exhibition in Beijing. His projects are published in top Italian and international trade magazines.

THE PROJECT

As always in my projects, the starting point is designing something that doesn’t really look like it has been designed. Meaning that I’d rather seek the essence of things in my projects! I believe that despite the contemporary nature of my projects, there is actually a strong classical sense. I don’t mean classic as the copy of a capital or a baroque floor, but as proportion between all the parts, a balance in terms of form. This is why for Foxtrot I thought of reinterpreting the worlds of Dutch artist Piet Mondrian. While being a strong innovator, Mondrian has a strong Classical element in him.”

Foxtrot stands out for its uniform, elegant and yet essential appearance. When taking a close look to the wooden surface, we discover a geometrical pattern that can constantly generate new, different shapes by simply moving the angle of view.
