Barberini & Gunnell

Barberini & Gunnell, founded 2009 in Ancona in Italy by architects Francesco Barberini and Nina A. Gunnell, is the result of a philosophy, thinking of design and architecture as a work of art. The architectural and interior design activity carried out by ‘The Studio’ complements the creations of ‘The Atelier’, which are the result of an artistic playground and highly skilled craftsmanship, a place where artworks and sculptures come to life.

The Studio Barberini & Gunnell designs high-end residential and retail spaces that are out of the ordinary and beyond fashion. Barberini & Gunnell creates refined, timeless, and harmonious environments by inserting collectible design, "talking pieces" that create unique and bespoke homes according to the client' s eclectic and aesthetic desires.

The Atelier Barberini & Gunnell
creates artworks and collectible design, one-off pieces, and limited editions for a small niche of high-end projects; bespoke solutions for luxury and ultra-luxury projects all over the world.

FLAGSHIP DIOR LONDON

The choice of the most precious materials, the maniacal cure for detail is the basis of our modus operandi aiming to create timeless pieces, using marine grade stainless steel, brass, cast bronze, precious wood essences, marbles, onyxes, semi-precious gemstones, crystal glass, together with the most sophisticated technologies and quality craftsmanship.

Values such as sustainability, the use of natural materials, the rediscovery of eco-sustainable craftsmanship, and the protection of refined and ancient techniques that are increasingly being lost are the basis of the design.
