Andrea Branzi, architect and designer, graduated in Florence in 1967 and lived and worked in Milan. Branzi was part of the avant-garde Radical Architecture movement, which began in 1966 with the "Superarchitettura" exhibition at the Jolly 2 gallery in Pistoia. From 1964 to 1974, he was a partner at Archizoom Associati, a key figure in the Florentine Radical Architecture movement, and is one of the most respected voices in the movement. In Milan, he developed the themes of "New Italian Design", which led to the birth of Alchimia and Memphis. In 1982, Branzi opened his own studio to focus on architecture, urban planning, interior design, and industrial design. In 1994, he received the prize "Compasso d’Oro ADI alla Carriera".
