Claudio Silvestrin: Eye Claudio

Fire Water Earth Air Geometry Thought

Claudio Silvestrin, Mario Nanni, Clare Farrow, Francesco Alberoni

Born in 1954, Claudio Silvestrin studied under A. G. Fronzoni in Milan and at the Architectural Association in London.
His integrity, clarity of mind, inventiveness and concern for details is reflected in his 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 Architects was established in 1989 with offices in London, and since 2006 in Milan also.
The work of the practice encompasses real estate development, newly built houses and resorts for private residence, art galleries and museums, domestic and retail interiors and furniture design.
Clients include Giorgio Armani, Illycaffé, Anish Kapoor, Calvin Klein, Poltrona Frau, Victoria Miro, the "Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo" for whom he has designed the museum in Turin, and the internationally acclaimed rap artist Kanye West.
Claudio Silvestrin Architects have just completed the Victoria Miro private collection space and are currently building a new 40.000 m² construction resort in Cearà, Brazil, compromising of a hotel, spa and villas. They are also building two new 31 villa development of 20.000 m² in Singapore, a 5000 m² wellness centre in South Korea, and a 2,000 m² Hotel Resort in St Tropez.
