Giorgio Bena

Giorgio Bena is a furniture designer and maker born in 1995 near Turin, where he lives and works. He designs and produces furniture pieces with a pragmatic approach that he transfers from product design to interior design consultancy, moving between a more experimental, craft-based practice and a more traditional take on interiors and products.

Over the years he has built a particular experience in technical issues, concentrating on the executive aspects of the elements he designs. In 2022 he started working as an independent furniture maker and in 2023 he presented his first collection, Lockwerk. He is also a professor of Design History and Culture at IAAD in Turin.
