Biografia
Background
Elisa Ossino is an architect and designer born in Sicily. She trained in Milan at Politecnico di Milano and founded Elisa Ossino Studio in 2006. The practice spans residential and retail interiors, product design, art direction and set design.
Signature Style
Ossino's official profile describes a language of geometric abstraction, monochromes, metaphysical and surrealist references. Essential lines, light and objects are composed to create a scenographic sense of suspension and lightness. Molteni&C also notes the studio's interest in artisanal craftsmanship and experiments with materials informed by circular-economy processes.
Notable Work
Her projects were included in the 2016 W-Women in Italian Design exhibition at the Triennale Design Museum. Her Balnea project for Salvatori received the 2020 EDIDA award for Best Bathroom. Molteni&C credits her with the Pantalica sunbed, coffee table, stools and rug.
Practice and Teaching
Ossino co-created the children's design brand Nume in 2004, helped establish Officina Temporanea in 2010 and co-founded H+O in 2019. Since 2016 she has taught in the Interactive Media for Interior Design master's programme at IUAV University of Venice.
