Patrizia Moroso is recognised as the driving force behind her long-time friend Patricia Urquiola’s rise to fame, and is known for discovering and elevating fresh young talent to the international spotlight with the likes of Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien indebted to her vision. She brought Issey Miyake to the table with sculptor Ron Arad in ground breaking collaborations that fuse fashion, sculpture and furniture.

She teamed up with friend and performance artist Marina Abramovich for an unusual contemporary art installation. She gives a voice to the creative visions of the likes of Ross Lovegrove, Tom Dixon and Sebastian Herkner and marries traditional craft with sophisticated production techniques to deliver a brand, Moroso, that sets the pace of design. Patrizia is unquestionably design royalty.
