Enrico
Girotti

An entrepreneur and an industrial designer, he found his own form of expression in the word “maker”.
He graduated in Industrial Design in 2002 at the IUAV in Venice, and established a close link, in his products, between the “intimate” creative process and the “shared” production process, combining his technical background with his personal research and expressing himself through an on-going exchange and technical remodulation between the design of “Soft” and of “Hard” products.
One fundamental trait of his work is a close link between object conception and object realization achieved through a respectful and integrated approach that is unveiled and expanded across the development process, where no event occurs by chance.
In 2017 he founded his own brand lapiegaWD out of a direct expressive design need.

For Artemide, in co-operation with architect Matta, he designed “Nuboli,” a sculptural lighting object intended to treat light emission as “materialized” energy by arranging it according to hypothetical spirals, in view of creating a centrality and communion effect.
