Panel: Life in Design - Young Italians

Join us for an panel discussion to close out the Taglietti: Life in Design exhibition on Friday 28 August from 2-3:30pm in the Design Gallery

Hear from a collection of young Italian architects, designers and creatives, including Simona Falvo of Trower Falvo Architects, Andy Dal Pozzo and Laura Frazzetto from Pepper and Well on their work, background, and the influence of Italian design thinking, culture and lineage on their own approach to architecture and design and looking to the next generation of influential designers with links to Italy.

Simona Falvo is an architect and director of Trower Falvo Architects, and a design educator at the University of Melbourne. She believes in design which recognises history yet is committed to the contemporary; design which celebrates function, space and proportion; and design which is responsive to place and context.

Pepper & Well is a Melbourne-based architecture and interiors studio founded by husband-and-wife duo Andy Dal Pozzo and Laura Frazzetto. The firm is known for bespoke residential renovations and extensions that prioritize heritage preservation, material honesty, and client-first design.
