NAME: Simone Mantovani Arquitetura PROFILE: Simone Mantovani has been working, since she got majored in architecture and urbanism, as partner and creative director at the family business Construtora Mantovani, where she developed many enterprising projects as single residences, apartments, business offices, condominiums and high standard buildings. At the same time produced several interior design projects and furniture design. In 2001, she started up her own new firm, Simone Mantovani Arquitetura, with a whole new profile; aiming the integration of her background experiences on commercial, residencial and institucional architecture with interior design. All her projects are developed on the basis of research into materials and on elaborate construction, always taking into consideration the environments in which they are to come to life. There is no pre-determined script for the architectual incursions which, in general, starts with the overall layout and might terminate, for example, in designing a very special lamp. The client's briefing and the analysis of how he interacts with his environment is the starting point, that will ally experience to the art of spaces creation. |
