Alessandro Paglia - Pen Drawings

Hailing from Milan, the Italian capital of design, Alessandro Paglia has always been fascinated by the sheer elegant simplicity of that most classic of colour combinations, black and white, whether it be in the fine-arts, design, fashion, film or photography.

With an education and background in product design and over ten years of experience in that field, Alessandro says "Objects attract me, in particular their aesthetics, textures, materials and volumes. I feel inspired by the stories they tell, their personalities, the ingenuity of their creators, their hidden world. At some point I simply felt that I had to combine these two passions." The result of this fusion are his exceptional artworks.

Residence Remodel - Ascona, Switzerland

The climate is also mild Mediterranean that produces lush gardens with rare and exotic plants. When Caviano, Switzerland- based Wespi de Meuron Romeo Architects created a remodel plan for a single-family home in the area, they took all of these aspects of the environment and history into account.
