About Matteo Congiu : Matteo Congiu is a 33-year-old young designer and entrepreneur from Sardinia, graduated in Product Design from IED in Cagliari and a master's degree in Digital Fabrication and Innovation from IED in Milan. Sustainability and innovation are his greatest passions. The first innovative project is an interactive breathalyzer, developed by Matteo in partnership with Samsung Italy and presented at the Milan Furniture Fair in 2015; in 2017 he founded the OTQ Design brand, designing and presenting BISU: the world's first cork bed capable of improving sleep quality thanks to the antistatic properties of cork. 2017 brought the development of another innovative idea. Igloo, an intelligent lamp connected to one's home, capable of communicating live home consumption by changing its color. The project won the DYSON AWARDS and ILLUMIA. Today, he collaborates with IED as a teacher, designs furniture for private clients and large companies in the high-end furniture sector. He also directs the OTQ brand as Creative Director and CEO.
