Simone Bonanni

Simone Bonanni was born in Pordenone, Italy in 1989 and graduated from Milan's Istituto Europeo di Design in 2011. After working as a product designer and project leader at Marcel Wanders' studio in Amsterdam, Bonanni returned to Milan in 2015 to found his own studio, as well as teach and lecture at the Istituto.

Bonanni's design philosophy is based in understanding the essential functions and context of an object. This understanding can in turn influence the aesthetic choices of a design, allowing each object to communicate its own unique meaning and evoke emotions within the user.
