the designers

Elena Salmistraro
Designer and artist, lives and works in Milan. She graduated from the Milan Polytechnic and in 2009 founded her own studio, collaborating as a designer and illustrator with many companies in the creative industry. Attention to detail, harmony of shapes and poetic style characterize her creations, a mix of art and design: the research for the expressive language of the object, which can fascinate people by evoking emotions, is a priority of her work. Her projects have been selected for several international exhibitions. In 2017 she won the “Salone del Mobile Milano Award” as “Best New Designer”. Since 2107, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has appointed her ambassador of Italian design in the world. In 2018 she was appointed Ambassador of Brera Design District.
