Alessandro Mendini (1931 - Milan) is an Italian designer and architect with
an important role in the development of Italian Design, pushing the
boundaries of the products essence and one of the main personalities of
the Radical Design movement.
Just as works of the Renaissance period expressed human values and
sensibilities, Mendini has contributed to bringing into the heart of design
those “values” and “sensibilities” that have been eclipsed by commercialism
and functionalism. He works with Ettore Sottsass and collaborates with
leading international brands including Cartier, Hermes, Swarovski, and
Supreme New York. He has been awarded several international prizes,
including the Compasso d’Oro in 1979,1981 and in 2014. He holds an honorary
title from the Architectural League of New York and the title of *Chevalier
des Arts et des Lettres* from the French Republic.

Alessandro Mendini
Alessandro Mendini was born in Milan in 1931. Through his work as an architect, designer, journalist, theorist and publisher, Mendini helped establish the Italian design sensibility on a global scale with a particular focus on neo-modern, avant-garde design as well as the crossover between art, design and architecture.
Mendini’s influential work spanned the arenas of graphics, furniture, interiors, architecture, stage design, writing and painting. He graduated from the Polytechnic University of Milan in 1959, and he began his career at the studio of artist-designer Marcello Nizzoli. He went on to become the publisher of the popular magazines Casabella (1970–76), Modo and Domus (each 1979–85).
In 1979, Mendini joined Ettore Sottsass and Michele de Lucchi as a partner at Studio Alchimia, a harbinger of the Memphis Group before he cofounded Domus Academy in 1982. In 1989, he and his brother Francesco established their architectural practice, Atelier Mendini, in Milan, where he worked until his death in February 2019. In recognition of his outstanding body of work, Mendini was awarded the Compasso d’Oro twice, in 1979 and 1981. He was also honored by the Architectural League of New York, made Chevalier des Arts et Lettres in France, and, in 2014, he was awarded the European Prize for Architecture.
Mendini’s work is included in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum and the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Centre Pompidou in Paris, among others.
