"Meeting Matteo, over 10 years ago in Hoxton Square has led me to
develop a genuine respect and curiosity about his work and
approach. I was excited and apprehensive when I decided to write
his story. Such a responsibility. This book is not simply about
Matteo's transformation from Marketing to the world of Interior
Design over the past decade, but more about what inspires and
drives someone and how they get through it. "From nothing, Matteo
has created a design studio with a reputation for elegance, quality
and quirkiness. I feel lucky to have been allowed such unlimited
access, which has brought me closer to Matteo. I hope what I have
discovered keeps you turning the pages, as I know that there is a
lot more to come. Have a look for yourself." Matteo Bianchi is an
award-winning Interior and Product Designer with an entrepreneurial
flair. Born in Venice, Italy, Bianchi's inherent passion for design
led him to train at the Chelsea College of Art & Design in
London, after a career in marketing and advertising. Matteo Bianchi
is the Founder and Director of Matteo Bianchi Studio, launched in
2007 and he also teaches Interior Design related courses at The
Interior Design School, London and Chelsea College of Art in the
United Kingdom and The United Arab Emirates. Matteo Bianchi's
Studio combines unexpected, unique and refined Interior and Product
Design.

Porto Velho is another of Brazil's "last frontiers," a place where
the adventurous or unemployed have gone to find fortune or flee
misery. Given any community's natural tendency to reshape the
meaning of words to fit local context or invent new words for new
things (Brazil has at least 6 words for speed hump), as well as
Brazil's common tendency to various types of linguistic
imprecision, bringing them all together in a city essentially
founded by Americans, with workers from various parts of the world,
and encountering dozens of local tribes, confusion was almost
inevitable.. Being a translator/interpreter makes me (Simon) a bit
more anal about words than Beto who is more into the real world.
Many a time I commented "but this actually means X ," to which he
replied: "Yes, interesting isn't it "
All of Simon's earnings go towards funding www.antoninomuseum.com
