Andrea Brugnera

“I love to design in silence and I believe that design should be functional and passionate, with attention to details, a design that conveys both poetry and astonishment, being fun at the same time.”

Since 2004 I am working at Luciano Bertoncini Studio, dealing with design and installations in the Architecture, industrial design and brand identity field. I studied Wood Industry and Botany at the University of Padua and this allowed me to love and know nature deeply. In 2009 I earned the degree with the thesis “Honeycomb cardboard furniture”, subject that have led me to specialize in cardboard installations to create furniture and interior spaces made of cardboard, in Italy and abroad. In the same year I started as freelance designer and I won several design contests.

In 2015 I was selected with the Young & Design award, I exhibited at the “Triennale di Milano” in the project “Toyssimi” and I started a collection of self-production. I collect numerous publications in magazines such as Interni, MarieClaire Maison, Living Corriere, AD, area, Cosmopolitan, Vanity Fair, Gentleman and more
