Cristell / Gargano
Emanuel Gargano was born in Assisi, in Umbria where he formed creatively and sentimentally and where he still maintains his home, despite the numerous experiences that often see him present in many places in the world and which led him to establish his studio in London. . It is difficult to confine the multifaceted activity to a single professional sphere as his work ranges from architecture to industrial design, from contemporary art to the study of light. Over the years he has obtained various awards, most recently the prestigious Compasso d'Oro. His work reveals a deep fascination for the material of natural and synthetic elements that he uses and shapes, in search of their inner soul; probably the same thing that life is continuing to do with him day by day. Anton Cristell was born in 1972 in New York. While studying at the School of Visual Arts (SVA) in New York and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts (SMFA) in Boston he works as an illustrator for various magazines and in the advertising field. In 2001 he decides to move to Rome to open his own design studio. He begins a long activity linked above all to the commercial sector and the world of catering, in which he manages to blend architecture, design and graphics.
