Italian architect, designer and art director Piero Lissoni won this year’s Mark Wilkinson Award for Lifetime Achievement. Announcing this year’s award, Martin Allen-Smith, editor of designerati, said: “Piero Lissoni is a powerhouse of industrial design in the Italian bathroom and furniture sectors. For over thirty years, he has developed projects the world over in the fields of architecture, landscapes and interiors, as well as in product and graphic design.
“His eye for proportion is also what truly sets him apart and, a desire to steer clear of ‘boring functionalism’ and instead bring a little of his beloved Italian lifestyle into everything he does.”
