Philippe Nigro is French designer born in Nice. Characterized by a connection between prospective research and pragmatic appreciation of the “savoir-faire” of manufacturers with whom he works, Philippe moves between projects of different scale, whether it is with well-know brands in the luxury industry or local craftspeople. Over the years these experiences, enriched by a mixture of Franco-Italian culture, allow him to meet head-on the different aspects of design.
