GAMFRATESI
GamFratesi was established in Copenhagen in
2006 by Danish architect Stine Gam (born
1975) and her partner, Italian architect Enrico
Fratesi (born 1978). The couple divides their
time between their hometowns of Copenhagen,
Denmark and Pesaro, Italy. Their dual
heritage affects the products they design – a
combination of Scandinavian balance and
harmony and Italian exuberance and openness.
Understanding their differing backgrounds
and addressing them actively in the workshop
makes it possible to expand upon them.
As a pair, they operate in symbiosis, sharing
everything across their personal and profes-
sional lives. Gam takes a particular and
thoughtful approach to design, while Fratesi
moves more conceptually and energetically.
This instinctive and spontaneous fusion of two
ways of working is one of their key strengths.
