Milan, A’ Design Award Bronze, 2025
Winner
I'm honored to share that my work FS418 has received the A’ Design Award in 2025. I’m proud that this commissioned project for a private client was awarded by the A’ Design Award & Competition, based in Milan. It is a privilege for me to be part of the history of one of the world’s largest and most prestigious international design competitions. Past awardees include globally recognized names such as Zaha Hadid Architects, Pininfarina, and Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, alongside young emerging artists and designers.
The desk is designed as a monolithic piece of marble – minimalist in form but rich in function. It integrates concealed storage, hidden charging ports, and a retractable writing surface, allowing for a clean, cable-free workspace.
What makes this piece truly unique is the marble itself: After an extended material search, we selected a specific block from "Michelangelo quarry" in Carrara, Italy. The pattern was chosen to resemble the visual experience of looking through a forest canopy, which gave the piece its name: FS418 – Forest Walk.
I’m thankful for the trust my client placed in me to bring this project to life – and for the opportunity to share it on an international stage like A’ Design.
