Philippe Nigro, French designer born in Nice, studied Decorative Arts and Product Design (LTGC, Antibes – La Martinière, Lyon – Boulle, Paris). Today’s activity is divided mainly between France and Italy. Characterized by a connection between prospective research and pragmatic appreciation of the “savoir-faire” of manufacturers with whom he works, Philippe moves between projects of different scale, whether it is well-know brands, luxury industry or local craftsmanship. Over the years these experiences, enriched by a mixture of Franco-Italian culture, allow him to meet head-on the very different aspects of Design. He started his career alongside De Lucchi with whom he participated in many projects of product, furniture, lighting, interior design, events design. Some prospective projects are supported by the French VIA (Valorisation for Innovation in Furniture).
