Metaproject designer, Laura Polinoro graduated from DAMS in Bologna. In 1989 she wrote "L'officina Alessi. Alberto Alessi and Alessandro Mendini: Ten years of projects, 1980-1990". In 1990, with Alberto Alessi and Alessandro Mendini, she founded the Alessi Study Center (CSA), a place of experimentation that involves professionals and young creatives from various disciplines. There, she conducted workshops and created innovative collections proposing the concept of metaproject. Since 2000 she continued her collaboration by founding and directing the LPWK Design Studio. She's currently a visiting associate professor at Domus Academy and NABA. Jim Hannon-Tan's style and viewpoint have been shaped by a diversity of inputs and ideas. Born in Spain, he grew up with Asian influences in multicultural Australia before moving to Europe to hone his skills in the design studios of Milan, Amsterdam, and London over 15 years. His creative base is now back in Australia, where he is inspired by the vast landscapes, East-West fusion, and the potential of design to humanize new technologies and advanced manufacturing.
