The guest today is Michael Menescardi Product & Industrial designer MrSmith Studio in Milan.

Describe who you are, what are you doing and how you like it.
I graduated in Industrial Design at the Politecnico di Milano with a thesis on a housing unit modular convinced that the border between design and architecture (and between designers and architects!) Is increasingly thin. I am mainly of product design, even if I have a strong passion for graphics. They are perpetually glued to my programs 3D, in constant search for perfection in synthetic images that work. When can I try to ispirarmi some paintings of Edward Hopper and Piero della Francesca. For too many pencils, but I like to use a Pentel 0.9 mm. In 2005, together with some fellow university, I founded Studio MrSmith an alter ego originated as a business card to present to companies, usually a little sceptical towards young people. My first industrial product was the desk lamp “Bend”, designed to FontanaArte.
