Luigi Bruno, Italian architect and designer, was born in Naples in 1953 and he took his graduation at the Naples University “Federico II” in 1981.
His education gave him the opportunity to learn from the masters of the Italian architecture and of the classic and contemporary design, as Riccardo Dalisi, Alberto Samonà, Massimo Pica Ciamarra and others.
His professional growth has been constantly fed by the attendance at several international conventions, which allowed him to learn avant-garde techniques and the latest design trends. In Luigi Bruno's opinion “Each day you have to learn something, otherwise it is a useless day”. After
his first experiences in southern Italy, where he nicely interpreted the Mediterranean nature of architecture in that area, his most important professional turning point was the move to Verona in the Nineties. Verona is an historic city of Northern Italy, but also the cradle of a great architectural tradition, the district of high-level cabinetry companies, the place of the excellence of furniture making, of marble works and of every element that the pure Italian design offered all over the world.
It was a big geographical leap, but above all a cultural leap, and Luigi Bruno felt the desire to study the architecture and the furniture of the local tradition, merging them with the inner features of the Mediterranean architecture. He started to study again the working techniques and he understood the value of what he was seeing and experiencing, instead of rejecting the elements which were out of the rationalism he was taught during the university period... and this fact made his fortune..
Companies in Veneto found in Luigi Bruno an outstanding interpreter of the classic modernity in everything he designed, such as houses, interiors, offices, shops and showrooms . His will to mix elements with rigorous lines and antiques with classic taste, even produced with unusual materials, is always perceptible. This choice grants a sense of continuity between functional interiors and the -often- antique exteriors of villas, historic buildings and court-houses of Veneto.
All
those experiences, gained in more that 30 years of professional practice, result in many interventions in the United States, in Europe and in the countries of Eastern Europe, making Luigi Bruno the testimonial of a high-level “Made in Italy” and of an unmistakable , personal Architecture. Luigi Bruno creates his Customer's “dream” and “need”, and he make it real. It is essential for Luigi Bruno to get acquainted with the Customer, and understand him: only after that he can use his experience and his technique to carry out the project.
Luigi Bruno always says “Look in the eyes who is in front of you, and listen to him.. and the right project will be brought into life”.It is like having a baby: you have to help him grow up, you have to take care of him, day after day, until he becomes a man. Luigi Bruno's mission (his “doing architecture”) is inside these simple words: an Architecture which is made of soul, technique, knowledge and respect for different cultures

Офис | Стиль
Луиджи Бруно, архитектор
Здание начала прошлого века в провинции Вероны было отреставрировано и превратилось в полноценный офисный центр. На первом этаже размещены зона ресепшн и рабочие офисы, второй – полностью отдан для руководящего звена. Пол выполнен из плитки необычного геометрического рисунка, лестница – из белого мрамора, стены оштукатурены в соответствие с традиционной старинной техникой, а двери из клена и вишни полностью изготовлены по индивидуальным эскизам.

ке оказалась малоэффективной. Она не учитывала врожденную человеческую лень. И офис для большинства людей в мире так и остался офисом. Пока. На пике своего развития (он пришелся на 1990 годы) офисное пространство не только усложнилось технически, разнообразие стилевых решений позволило сделать его максимально индивиду42

альным. Производители мебели это поддерживали – у одного даже появился слоган: Tailor Made Office. Тон в создании офисов по индивидуальной мерке задавали заказчики – крупные корпорации с особыми условиями работы. И условия эти далеко не ограничивались семейными фотографиями на столе и ежегодными корпоративными вечеринками. Интерьер офиса дополнили зимние сады

ИДЕЯ И ПРЕДМЕТЫ
Когда я думаю о кухне, сразу же начинаю ощущать различные запахи! Ароматы съестного варьируются в течение дня: букет терпкого кофе и свежего круассана утром, сладкая мелодия овощей, пасты и соусов в обед и решительный дуэт мяса и рыбы за ужином… В истории Кухни происходило множество изменений, особенно в области инноваций и технологий. Современная модель эргономична, удобна в использовании и гармонично вписана в интерьер. За последние годы поиск инноваций превратился в настоящее наваждение... Моя «Идеальная кухня» – это место, защищенное от домашних травм, территория, на которой современные технологии становятся невидимыми Luigi Bruno помощниками, это олицетворение комфорта и гармонии цвета архитектор и материалов с нашими чувствами. Сталь, стекло, кориан и другие материалы – достойные составляющие современного интерьера кухни, но для меня они никогда не заменят ощущения теплоты и запаха, идущего от живой, деревянной поверхности… Кухня обязательно должна быть персонифицированной и выполнена в согласии с интерьером дома. К сожалению, сегодня она становится чем-то отстраненным, некой супердизайнерской задумкой для показа и только! Хотелось бы не забывать о ее прямом назначении, о старинных рецептах удивительно вкусных блюд, приготовленных своими руками, с душой! Семейные традиции и теплая дружеская атмосфера делают кухонную сталь мягкой, как кашемировый шарф.
