Sul tetto della Triennale ricompaiono le guglie del Duomo, forme appuntite come le idee dei milanesi che guardano al futuro, alle innovazioni, al bisogno di pensieri profondi e acuminati.

he LED installations can be split between enlightened buildings and enlightened objects, animals or flowers. From the “enlightened buildings”, I picked the ones that I liked the most. Title: “Le punte di Milano”

Artist: Michele De Lucchi. Location: Triennale. A tribute to the Design Museum, the enlightened peaks on top of the building also remember the Duomo’s pinnacles.

Michele De Lucchi was born in 1951 in Ferrara and graduated in architecture in Florence.
During the period of radical and experimental architecture he was a prominent figure in movements like Cavart, Alchymia and Memphis. De Lucchi has designed furniture for the most known Italian and European companies.
For Olivetti he has been Director of Design from 1992 to 2002 and he developed experimental projects for Compaq Computers, Philips, Siemens and Vitra.

He designed and restored buildings in Japan, Germany, Switzerland and in Italy for Enel, Olivetti, Piaggio, Poste Italiane, Telecom Italia.
In 1999 he was appointed to renovate some of ENEL’s (Italys principal Electricity Company) power plants. For Deutsche Bank, Deutsche Bundesbahn, Enel, Poste Italine, Telecom Italia, Hera, Intesa Sanpaolo and other Italian and foreign banks he has redesigned the service environments and corporate image, introducing technical and aesthetic innovation into organization of their working environments.
He designed buildings for museums including the Triennale di Milano, Palazzo delle Esposizioni di Roma, Neues Museum Berlin and the le Gallerie d’Italia Piazza Scala in Milan. In the last years he developed many architectural projects for private and public client in Georgia, that include the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the bridge of Peace in Tbilisi, the Radison Hotel and Public Service Building in Batumi.

His professional work has always gone side-by-side with a personal exploration of architecture, design, technology and crafts.
In 1990 he founded Produzione Privata, a small-scale production and retail company through which Michele De Lucchi designed products that are made using dedicated artisans and craft techniques. From 2004 he has been using a chain saw to sculpt small wooden houses which create the essentiality of his architectural style. In 2003 the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris has acquired a considerable number of his works. Selections of his products are exhibited in the most important design Museums in Europe, United States and Japan.

he philosophy adopted by Michele De Lucchi’s office seeks to maintain a steady interaction between architectural thinking, industrial design and global communication. This transverse approach is backed by Michele De Lucchi’s own international experience acquired in more than forty years’ work.

Founded in the early 1980s, the office has kept its original multicultural and multidisciplinary origins. Producing architecture and design for Italian and foreign institutes, public and private organisations, businesses and individuals, it carries out in-depth surveys of matters relating to contemporary society, especially the role of industry and crafts, technology and nature.

Formed by architects and designers from all over the world, the office shows a predilection for teamwork. Its projects are developed without ever being confined to the visual aspects traditionally associated with design, but rather by contemplating every necessary step – from analysis to concept, from realisation to forecasts of future scenarios. The office staff comprises some forty professionals from different cultural backgrounds and experiences who are committed to complex projects. These ranger from the scale of products to that of architecture and city planning. Always at the forefront of the international cultural scene, the firm implements a policy of technical, performing and functional quality related to reasonable completion and management costs.

The firm’s head office is in central Milan, in an Art Nouveau building that was converted in 2006 into a creative workshop.At Angera Michele De Lucchi has established his atelier-archive, where architectural experiments start off and the documentary records of his work are kept.

aMDL operates through the work of Michele De Lucchi and four Project Directors: Nicholas Bewick, Alberto Bianchi, Giovanna Latis, Angelo Micheli, each of whom coordinates a project design group.

As proof of a design reaching for excellence, the office was this year awarded the ISO 9001:2008 certificate for its architectural, urban, interior and exhibition design.

Michele De Lucchi é um dos designers multifacetado e extremamente produtivo. A sua carreira desenvolveu-se dentro de uma simples disciplina do design. Move-se entre o mobiliário, design de interiores, iluminação, e arquitectura, alternando entre diferentes campos.
Desenhou computadores para Olivetti, candeeiros de mesa para Artemide, puxadores de portas para Valli Columbo, e acessórios de fita adesiva para a Pelikan. Projectou escritórios de entidades bancárias na Alemanha, apartamentos no Japão, cadeiras, vasos, e mobiliário de escritório.
Nasceu em Ferrara no ano de 1951, estudou arquitectura em Florença e fundou o “Gruppe Cavart” em Pádua quando ainda era estudante, propagando assim um design radical.
Ensinou o design industrial na universidade de Florença durante os meados anos 70s tornando-se um dos colegas e amigo mais próximo de Ettore Sotsass’. Mais tarde, De Lucchi foi contratado por Olivetti como um consultor de design. Junto com Sotsass, projectou a série de mobiliário de escritório “Icarus” para a Olivetti, decorou e projectou as lojas Fiorucci em todo o mundo.
O sentido da cor, e das formas exuberantes vistas por De Lucchi é expresso nos seus objectos e artigos diários assim como nos seus projectos de mobiliário tais como o aparador Kristall desenhado para Memphis em 1981 que faz lembrar um animal de quatro patas. É um designer versátil criando objectos que impressionam pela sua elegância, a sua meticulosa sensibilidade pelo fabrico e acabamento. Um exemplo disso mesmo é o candeeiro de mesa Ptolemeo, galardoado com o prémio “Compasso d’Oro “.
As actividades no seu próprio estúdio em Milão variam entre o design industrial e de mobiliário até ao design de interiores. Vistosi, Haworth, Fontana Arte, Artemide, RB Rossanan, Arflex, Acerbis, e Bodum são alguns dos que se encontram na sua numerosa lista de clientes.
Os seus trabalhos obtiveram prémios tais como: o “Compasso d’ Oro”, G-Mark (Good Design), Japan; Design Plus; Design Team of the Year, Deutschland, 1997; e IF Design Award, Hannover, Smau.

A Haworth encomendou-lhe a criação de uma linha de mobiliário de escritório em 1999. O projecto baseou-se em resultados científicos de DEGW e foi produzido em colaboração com a Haworth Itália. Dando origem à conhecida linha de mobiliário TUTTI, nascida em 2001.
