Giulio
Gianturco
Milan, Italy
Born in 1953, he graduated in medicine and surgery (specialising in medical
hydroclimatology and thermal medicine, and phlebology). Starting from the
Eighties he participated in many regattas and learned to appreciate and love the
characteristics of various technical materials (stainless steel, aramid fibres, …).
From there he learned to transfer his experiences with these materials to designing
and building the first pieces for his home. He began to receive requests from
friends and started short production runs.
In 2008, after a sabbatical spent in the USA, he left the practice of medicine,
only to follow the design product.
