Finemateria

Finemateria is a Milan design studio founded in 2020 by Gianluca Sigismondi and Stefano Bassan. Its stated aim is to visualise materials, processes and cultures — to make the physical substance of things legible — through product and spatial design, creative direction and consultancy.

The studio works with brands and institutions as well as on self-initiated projects, with furniture and objects for Quadro Design, Kristalia and Campeggi and installations for clients such as Besana Carpets Lab. In 2025 it opened House of Finemateria, a space that combines the studio’s headquarters with a programme of dinners, presentations and community events.
