Internationally renowned, his most well known project is perhaps his role in the designing of the Trump Towers.

His creative instincts have been present from a young age. Reminiscing on his childhood, he says: “When I was a boy during high school, my teachers got angry because I was drawing during class hours. For me, drawing has always been a passion and a pleasure. For this reason I consider my work to be the most extraordinary, because I do what I like and someone pays me to do it!”.

This creative intuition is what led Matteo Nunziati to pursue a career in the fields of architecture and design. Following this, he made his first steps in the professional world when he opened his own studio in Milan in the year 2000. Like many of his national counterparts, Matteo Nunziati perfectly translates Italian style into all of his projects, selecting the finest quality furniture for his clients – Manufactured in his home country, of course.

Though he comes from humble beginnings, Nunziati is grateful for the many opportunities he has been given. “Although I believe that dissatisfaction is fundamental for an artist, I sometimes stop and looking back and I am deeply grateful for what I received. I come from a simple family from a small town in the Italian province and now I travel around the world to realize extraordinary projects and I have among my clients the President of the United States of America. I receive extraordinary gifts!”

Still enamoured with his field nearly two decades after first opening his studio, Matteo Nunziati is already thinking of the future of design, hoping that it will continue to make an international impact.

“Sometimes I think my work is superficial, we spend a day choosing the colour of a pillow, but instead I am realizing that the real beauty has a fundamental importance in human life. I become happy thinking of my children’s smile, my parents’ affectionate and deep gaze, a romantic dinner with my wife, this beauty is energy to live. And our job of making beautiful interiors and product can contribute to transmitting beauty and therefore making the people’s life more positive. I hope that the future of design will always be greater awareness and responsibility of all of us designers to look for real beauty in our products.”
