Iosa Ghini (Bologna 1959) Massimo Iosa Ghini received his degree in architecture after completing his studies in Florence and at the Milan Polytechnic. In 1982, while still pursuing his degree, he began producing comics and illustrations which were published in Italy by the magazines Alter Linus, Frigidaire, and Vanity; in the United States by Heavy Metal; and in Japan by Fashion News. In 1985 he began working for RAI, creating stage sets, costumes, and objects and videos for musical or cultural programs. His work with the Memphis group dates back to 1986, the year he founded the Bolidismo movement in Bologna together with several other young architects. His participation in the avant-garde of design distinguishes Iosa Ghini's search for innovative form, as seen in the 1986 seating system, Dinamic, created for the firm Moroso. Starting in the mid 1980s, he began producing interior design projects and exhibition spaces for Piaggio, Fiorucci, Renault, Ferrari, Maserati, Aprilia, Omnitel, Superga and Infostrada. Ferrari, Maserati, Superga and Omnitel were so taken by his flair for creating interiors that his work now distinguishes all their offices and sales points. In the realm of industrial design his collaborators in Italy have included such names as Cassina, Fiam, Flou, Giemmegi Cucine, Mandarina Duck, Moroso, Poltrona Frau, and Twergy by Alessi. Foreign clients have included: Alfi, Ritzenhoff, WMF, Yamagiwa, Hasashi Glas, and Silhouette Modelbrillen. He has held conferences in various universities including the Milan Polytechnic, the Domus Academy, and the University of Rome, La Sapienza. |
