Giorgio Marianelli

Giorgio Marianelli was born in Castiglioncello, in the province of Livorno, in 1939.
He took a degree in Architecture at Milan’s Polytechnic, then applied his skills specifically to residential planning.
The phenomenon of design of 1968 attracted him to Milan, where he worked at Olivetti’s design practice. During this period he also designed a showroom in New York and the Italian Cinema Pavillion at Venice’s Biennale.
He then opened his own practice in Milan, focussing on design and interior design but also on graphics and corporate image for Italian and international companies.
He co-operated as designer with some of the sector’s best-known brands, such as Guzzini, Tronconi, Foppa Pedretti, Zucchetti Rubinetterie and many of his designs have won important international prizes.
