BIOGRAPHY
Denis Guidone

Denis Guidone is involved with architecture, design and visual communication.  His project process was born under the idea of  “subtraction.”  He follows the unification of opposite through a constant approach on the border between architecture and visual communication, at the same time mediated by expressive research addressed to work on the basis of  subtraction.

Using the design concepts of A.G. Fronzoni as a springboard, Guidone developed his unique approach, "For Denis Guidone, materiality and function seem to be consistently and exquisitely reduced to a conceptual premise where use becomes the embodiment of form – in fact, idea, service, and aesthetic emerge in his work as inseparable.”  James Wines   (SITE architecture NY)
