Designer in Profile: Marco Braghiroli Position within company Director Company Prestige Architects Website www.prestige.eu.com Tell us a little about your background in design (education, experience, etc) I studied architecture in Italy obtaining the Laurea in Architecture at the Politecnico of Milan and studied Interior Architecture at the University of Hasselt in Belgium. After obtaining the full qualification in Italy I moved to the UK in 2000 and I have been a Chartered Architect since 2005. I started working in the UK in 2001 with Traditional Architectural practices on various projects from large residential developments to institutional colleges and in that period, I discovered my passion for private residential projects which has been my focus since early 2003 and I had the opportunity to follow this further with other practices where I reached senior associate level. I was lucky enough to be the architect of many luxury homes in the UK and abroad delivering beautiful buildings, an experience which has fulfilled my desire for beauty without the restriction of institutional committee and only based on a personal relationship with the private client. How would you describe your personal interior design style? My “Architect Ego� is more for a contemporary and modern approach with the challenge of integrating the traditional design and existing building envelope but the best way to describe my interior design style is focusing on the Client taste and drive the design based on their requirements: after all is their home and it must reflect this, architects should be like Virgil guiding the Client through the design underworld.
