Designers Lucio Micheletti Micheletti + Partners

Lucio Micheletti was born in 1961 in Milan, where he lives and works. At a very young age, he expressed his creativity in the field of art, attending Edoardo Krumm's atelier of the postimpressionist school. An architect and designer, he graduated from the Polytechnic with a thesis with Marco Zanuso in which the aim was to combine artisan knowledge with the emerging rapid prototyping technologies. Active in the fields of product design and architecture, he has a predilection for car design, collaborating directly with Zagato, Nardi, Momo and working with various German and Japanese car manufacturers on product development and process innovation. After opening Micheletti+Partners in 1987, he decided to transfer his creative intuitions to the world of design and architecture. His approach is contaminated but pure, passionate, enthusiastic, always in search of emotions to transfer into his work. He carries out architectural projects in America, Russia and China, creating hotels, theatres, palaces, shopping centres and places to live. He creates artefacts that have a strong conceptual link to the territory, living over time as an environmental system. Theses that also emerge in the installations at the Venice Art Biennial in 2014, at the Portofino Art Museum, and in the various land art works and installations created in America and Europe. In 2009 he opened a nautical division. Sketches with a clear automotive vision, clean and functional interiors, simple and powerful decks were born. In this field, the experiences of the Taylor-made world flourish: out-of-series boats for private customers and one-off design objects are born. The need was born for a Brand Identity that would go back to talking about process, systemic design, and not just product. What is needed is a modus operandi, the result of a global vision of lifestyles and innate ways such as innovation in the use of materials and research into detail. Over the years Lucio Micheletti has worked with companies such as Zagato, Audi, Nardi, Momo, Lexus, BMW, Ferrari, Bayer, Pratesi, Neri, Flos, Breil, Swatch, Ebel, Gerard Peregaux, Vismara, Solaris, Infiniti Yacht, Baltic Yacht, and for some of these he has been the art director over the last twenty years.
