Giulia Archimede

Giulia Archimede is an Italian interior and product designer based in Florence. She produces everyday objects that appear to carry a sense of ancient history, and her designs are influenced by nature whilst embracing a spiritual philosophy. What is presented in her work is a feeling, an emotion taking shape. Every object is a conveyor to express emotions in a way that would not be possible through the use of words. Archemide developed her passion for design from her hometown and the information she learnt from her father.

After obtaining a bachelor's degree, Archemide spent numerous years living in Cape Town, she then accepted a place at the wood program of Alvar Aalto in Helsinki, before returning home to Italy with a burst of new inspiration under her belt. At the start of her career, Giulia Archemide focused on crafting furniture from wooden materials, but after founding BASE Milano, she became curious about working with other materials.
