Spalvieri & Del Ciotto

Simone Spalvieri and Valentina Del Ciotto, both born in 1982, met in 2003. Having graduated in Industrial Design and Interior Design respectively from Milan Politecnico, they immediately became a couple both in their personal and professional lives.They lived and worked in Milan and London before moving their base to Tolentino, a small village surrounded by nature. Spalvieri & Del Ciotto design studio is a meeting place and melting pot of ideas, research and experimentation. Their work, characterised by formal, functional purity, is based on the idea that every designer product needs to be a value that can be passed on to future generations and contains and conveys a piece of our history and our culture. Through design, they endeavour to render new materials and new technologies more people-friendly, with the aim of making more innovative objects easier to understand and use.
