Aside from his collaborations with the likes of Plumen, Adidas, Reebok and MADAgency,
Simone Colombo’s innovative designs have also landed him a position on the Forbes 30
Under 30 list. He’s one to watch out for.
Before launching his career, Colombo completed a higher education in applied
experimental art and then went on to study industrial design at the Institute of
Engineering Design. He describes himself as a “typical” Italian - enthusiastic,
energetic and creative. Inspired by the streets of his hometown, Milan, Colombo
produces pieces that are fresh, modern and honest, without trying to cater to one
specific style. Objects, buildings, shapes and colours he saw during his travels to
India inspired his evocative work now.

innovative, forward-looking work, which is rooted in the quality, discreet luxury
and attention to detail that Italian design is known for. To him, good design cannot
be created without passion. Azzolina likes to spend his Sundays with a double
coffee, a swim and an inter-Milan football match in the evenings.
