Alessandro Mendini (1931-2019), an architect, designer, artist and critic born in Milan, was among the theorists and promoters of the renewal of Italian design. He produced objects, furniture, spaces, paintings and was a consultant to several industries.
He was the editor of the magazines Casabella, Modo, and Domus. Monographs in different languages were published on his work and on the work he shared with his groups.
Alongside his brother, architect Francesco Mendini, he worked in the field of architecture and designed factories, underground stations, Olympic swimming pools, museums, office buildings, commercial and residential buildings.
Mendini received many design awards, including three Compasso d’Oro. His works are on display in both museums and private collections.
