Born in 1974 in Italy, Carmine Deganello is a creative marvel in the design realm and received his degree from Florence's ISIA. He works as a product and architectural designer that has made a stellar reputation for himself both in Italy and internationally. By working back and forth between Amsterdam and Milan, Deganello's work shows the cultural differences for appealing features.

His designs are highly experimental and show incredible attention to detail. Research is an integral part of Deganello's process, and that helps him create eye-catching pieces that look ideal in a contemporary setting.
