About me

Giorgio Patuelli

Architect, sculptor, artist. And Argonaut.

I graduated in Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano, studied descriptive geometry in Florence and the calculation of lamellar structures in Venice. I have always worked where art meets technique: architecture, industrial design, sculpture, ceramics, painting, communication.

In my Atelier Ark59-Design in Imola, Italy, I design, model and publish. I have taught technology, computer science, art history and descriptive geometry, and I am a member of ADI, the Italian Association for Industrial Design.

Why Argonaut

The Argonauts set out without knowing what they would find, aboard a ship that could speak. I recognise myself in them: every new tool, from the compass to artificial intelligence, is a sea to be crossed with curiosity and a steady hand on the tiller.
