Andrea Branzi

Andrea Branzi was born in Florence in 1938 and co-founded Archizoom Associati there in 1966, the year he graduated in architecture. Based in Milan from 1973, he worked with Studio Alchimia and Memphis, was founding director of Domus Academy, taught at the Politecnico di Milano and won three Compasso d’Oro awards, one for his career. He died in Milan in 2023.

For the fiftieth anniversary of Superonda, the sofa he designed with Archizoom in 1967, Poltronova invited him to create Superonda Stripes, one of six limited editions presented at the Milan Triennale in 2018.
