Design

All the products of the Deisgn Apparat collection were deisgned by Mirko Tattarini.

Mirko Tattarini was born and raised on the Amiata Mountain, a unique natural enclave in southern Tuscany, homeland of visionary and anarchic personalities, a mountain that preserves the charme of an ancestral world now keen on sustainable development.

After experiencing the thrills of professional ski racing, in 1995 he graduates at the ISIA of Florence with a thesis supervised by Paolo Deganello. Before then, his works are already published on different newspapers and magazines, among which Domus, Modo, Professione Architetto, Pluriverso, Experimenta.

He founds Lagos Design in 1996 aiming to apply the methodology of Italian design to the new digital domain. Few years later, he starts teaching Communication Design at the ISIA of Florence. He’s art director of the Millennium Celebrations “Monnalisa Overdrive” in Florence. In 2001 and 2002 he is founder and director of the X-Media International Conference.

In 2005, he publishes the book “Digital Medina”. The text includes, among the others, the contribution of Arthur Kroker, Derrick de Kerckhove, Giuseppe Furlanis.

In 2005 he opens a Lagos subsidiary in Sofia, where he mainly follows interiors and product design projects working with different companies through a strategic design approach: from brand to product design.

In 2006 he wins the concept competition for a skyscraper to be built in Burgas, Bulgaria.

Last but not least, the launch of Design Apparat is his ultimate but not less exciting adventure.
