Daniele Menichini

Architect and designer, he was born in Engelberg, Switzerland in 1968. In 1995 he graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in Florence and in 1996 founded the "Studio di Architettura Daniele Menichini", which deals with planning, interiors, design, visual communication and art direction for companies in the home and contract furnishing sector.  Accurate theoretical research is flanked by careful practical work in the field of architecture, interiors and design, dedicating himself to the study of the problems of living, contemporary living and hospitality. From the very beginning of his activity, his design style immediately stood out for its contemporary lines, materiality, colour, atmosphere, emotionality and the multi-sensoriality of space, with particular attention to the development of eco-based concepts and details, starting from a technical, creative and managerial training based on research and projects on integrated and sustainable design with reference to northern European countries, which, with the experience gained, led to the drafting of projects with an eco-responsible imprint and philosophy. His many activities include being president of the Green Hub Cultural Association, presidency of the Tuscany Section of the National Institute of Architecture, and teaching as a visiting professor in Morocco at the School of Architecture Planning and Design in Benguirr. He is a member of the task force Sustainable Development Goals Agenda 2030 UN of the International Union of Architects. He was part of the curatorial team of the Italian Pavilion "Resilient Communities" at the 17th International Architecture Biennale in Venice and of the organisational team of the collateral event "Students as researchers" at the 18th International Architecture Biennale in Venice. He is a member of the organisational team of the event "Peccioli Forum, meetings on social biodiversity" and of the curatorial team of the project "We are out of time" supported by Architetture Sostenibili per i luoghi della cultura and promoted by the Direzione Generale Creatività Contemporanea of the Italian Ministry of Culture.
