tablished in 1989 with offices in Lon-
don, and since 2006 in Milan also.

ally acclaimed hip hop artist and producer
Kanye West. Recently completed projects

ment in Singapore, Oblix restaurant at the

Highly creative, Claudio Silvestrin was
born in 1954, studied under A.G. Fronzoni
in Milan and at the Architectural Associa-
tion in London.
His interest in philosophy, his vision, his
integrity, clarity of mind, inventiveness
and concern for details is reflected in
his distinctive architecture: austere but
not extreme, contemporary yet timeless,
calming but not ascetic, strong but not
intimidating, elegant but not ostentatious,
simple but not soulless.
Claudio Silvestrin has lectured extensively.
In 2013 he was appointed as a Walton
Critic and tutored at the Catholic Univer-
sity of America, School of Architecture in
Washington DC.
