Cristina Celestino

After completing her university studies at the IUAV’s Faculty of Architecture

in Venice, Cristina Celestino (Pordenone, 1980) began her professional career by

working for leading architecture firms, with a particular focus on interior architecture

and design.

In 2009 she moved to Milan, where she founded the Attico Design brand, under

which she created original lamps and furnishings with distinctive materials and forms.

In 2012 she was chosen to take part in SaloneSatellite; further to this important

showcasing opportunity, Attico Design pieces went on display in a large number of

international galleries and showrooms.

As designer and architect, Cristina Celestino creates exclusive solutions both for

private clients and for a few carefully chosen companies; her work also includes the

creative management of a handful of firms, and interior and exhibition design.

At Design Miami 2016, she designed the The Happy Room collection for Fendi;

the following year, for Sergio Rossi she created a fascinating interior design and a

furniture collection for the concept for the brand’s new boutiques.

A passionate collector of Italian design masterpieces, she is a curious

investigator of objects: her work is based on observation and research, springing

from in-depth analysis of the potentials linked to the concepts of form and function,

and also including both historic and contemporary references to the world of fashion,

art and design.

During her career she has received a number of international prizes, such

as the Special Jury Prize at the Salone del Mobile Milano Award and the Elle Deco

International Design Awards.
