Massimo Marcomini
With a degree from the prestigious “Biagio Rossetti” School of Architecture in Ferrara – a student of Achille Castiglioni, Giò Ponti and Giulio Romano – Massimo Marcomini founds the atelier-brand Les First – Design Made in Italy in 2015, together with Nadia Marconato, as a natural evolution of his architect’s activity.
Born to answer his clients’ needs for interior lighting and decoration, the Les First project involves traditional companies from the Veneto and Lombardy regions to create luminous sculptures combining centuries-old craftsmanship and sustainable hi-tech.
Classical inspiration and design, exquisite ceramics and tradition combine to both preserve and reimagine the long tradition of excellence, quality and style that make Made in Italy so unique. Steeped in the vibrant mythological stories retold by Giulio Romano in the halls of Mantua’s Palazzo Te, Les First gives a modern slant to the creative vision and Know-How of great Italian design: a new craftsmanship devised to answer a new era’s need for beauty and meaning.
