Ignazio Gardella (Milan, 1905) was born into a family of five generations of architects. He began studying civil engineering in 1931 at the Milan Polytechnic and graduated in architecture from the IUAV in Venice 19 years later. He is considered a pillar of the third generation of the Italian Modern Movement and stands out for his embodiment of Italian Rationalism. Architect and industrial designer, Ignazio Gardella has an extensive portfolio of architectural designs, as well as lighting and furniture pieces, being co-founder of the design company Azucena.
