Daniele Mingardo

The second generation is not always able to maintain and evolve the family business. This is not the case for Daniele Mingardo, who is successfully reinventing the traditional metal workshop founded by his father Ilario in 1970. Growing up in the blacksmith workshop, where he started learning the craft at the age of 18 years, Daniele took inspiration from the masters of functional design, as well as from the more recent makers movement, and grew the business, which was purely focused on high-end custom made pieces before him. Daniele opened the doors to new collaborations with architects and designers, creating a collection of handmade and numbered design objects named Designer Faber. What has not changed is Mingardo’s passion and respect for the unlimited potential of metal.
