MIRO architetti was founded in Bologna in 2009 by Valentina Cicognani, Giacomo Minelli and Riccardo Pedrazzoli. It deals with design at different scales, dedicating to each of them the same passion, curiosity and invention.
In almost ten years of activity MIRO has developed the experience and competence to manage all the phases of the design process from the analysis to the construction, always striving to find in the final result the same quality and poetry of the first sketch.
MIRO’s portfolio includes several built interior projects, installations and settings, competition entries in the field of architecture and design. The office is active in Italy, China and Middle east. The three partners are also active in the field of University teaching, in the research and in the public debate around the architecture of our times.

PROJECTS

The penthouse unit with the city inside. An extroverted penthouse in a historic building in Bologna

Just a few steps from Bologna's Two Towers, on Strada Maggiore, an apartment of more than 120 square meters spread over two floors becomes the penthouse with the city inside, thanks to the meticulous renovation that transforms the panorama into a scenography for its interiors

The House Tre Prismi. An interplay of spatial matriosche in a progression of intimacy and unexpected viewpoints

In the very center of Bologna, from the renovation of an apartment on the main floor of a historic building, Casa tre prismi takes shape: a scalar project that transforms the traditional layout from the rooms connected in sequence, a game of boxes that identify functional rooms in a progression of intimacy

Zigo-Zago, a tribute to Enzo Zacchiroli. The renovation of an apartment in the Le Torri complex in Bologna

On the tenth floor of the Le Torri residential complex designed by Enzo Zacchiroli, who said with his architecture that he was "always looking for the well-being and happiness of the Little Man," an apartment is equipped with the Zigo-Zago container volume to create through the new design a direct connection with the original structure
