AFRODITE CHAIR BY ANDREA BONINI

Andrea Bonini

Born Verona, Italy, 1985

An Italian designer and art director, Andrea Bonini reinterprets deceptively simple shapes with an impassioned attention to detail to create exceptionally sensual and luxurious pieces and environments. Constructed with the finest craftsmanship and materials, Bonini’s sculptural furniture collection is noted for its elegant geometry and proportions, along with meticulously crafted symmetry, bold lines, and ample curves. His pieces simultaneously evoke emotional narrative and highlight artisanship in material and form

Born into a family of metal craftsmen in the world’s cradle of marble artisanship, Bonini’s deep knowledge and passion for these two materials often find their way into his designs. This background has inspired him to explore the raw, natural beauty of materials and to create bold conversation between contrasting elements within his pieces. At his atelier in Milan, Bonini creates limited edition pieces, signed and numbered, that singularly combine refined Italian taste with an utterly contemporary vision

After graduating in interior design from the Marangoni Institute in Milan, Bonini founded his studio in 2014. Creating collections for several Italian luxury brands, he received international awards at the Salone del Mobile, and his work was published in leading international design and architecture magazines. In 2019, Architectural Digest Italia named Bonini as one of the best designers under 35
