Function, Aesthetics, and Innovation
Gianni Lo Giudice is the pioneer of the High-Dech style, an innovative concept that transcends the boundaries of traditional high-tech by integrating it with decorative elements and soft forms. This style, a fusion of industrial materials and refined aesthetics, gives life to dynamic spaces and furniture pieces with a strong visual impact.
High-Dech enhances the use of materials typical of high-tech architecture—steel, glass, resins, and reflective surfaces—transforming them through sinuous curves and fluid structures, creating a design that balances modernity and harmony. Geometric rigidity gives way to more inviting forms, while integrated lighting and smart home technology amplify spatial perception, shaping environments that are both technological and immersive.
Gianni Lo Giudice’s design is a synthesis of technological research and aesthetic sensibility, where every project—from interiors to industrial design—is conceived to merge functionality with visual identity. This section presents a curated selection of works spanning interior design, furniture, and industrial projects, all characterized by the High-Dech style, which seamlessly blends innovation with formal harmony.
With High-Dech, technology is not just about functionality—it becomes an artistic expression.
The Infinite Levels of Vertical Design.
A futuristic furnishing piece that merges design and functionality in a perfect balance between technology and decoration. Created in 2000 by designer Gianni Lo Giudice, Tech-Tree is an exemplary synthesis of the High-Dech style, where advanced materials and dynamic forms come together in a modern and highly adaptable structure.
The lamps designed by Gianni Lo Giudice in 2006 blend elegance and irony in the High-Dech style. Dado is a floor lamp made of steel and glass, inspired by a gaming die, while Slim, available in Floor, Wall, and Desk versions, is a collection of sleek and minimalist lamps featuring a chrome steel structure and borosilicate glass diffusers.
The Intersection of Industry and Design
One of Italy’s first brewpubs, pioneering a new concept of space dedicated to craft beer.
From the first project in Bresso in 1999 to its evolution in San Polo d’Enza in 2005, Officina della Birra set a precedent, transforming industrial aesthetics into an immersive experience through the High-Dech style.
In central Milan, SM 29 is a refined, sophisticated restaurant that attracts sports and entertainment personalities. Black, paired with neutral tones, creates a bold yet inviting ambiance, while mirrored walls with dressing-room style light bulbs add a scenic, iconic touch. It’s an exclusive spot where design and atmosphere merge into a unique experience.
Opened in 2011 in a former industrial site, Barouge is a nightclub with a futuristic design inspired by the sets of Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Arches and platforms with curved, illuminated profiles change color, dynamically transforming the atmosphere. At the far end of the venue, the DJ booth is framed by a large circular screen projecting images of outer space, recreating the effect of an interstellar porthole. The bar counter, inspired by the architecture of New York’s Guggenheim Museum, completes this immersive journey through technology and design.
A collection of sculptural seating in stamped steel, where the illusory softness of the surface—inspired by the capitonné pattern—interacts with the solidity of the material. Presented at the 2002 Salone del Mobile in Milan within the "High-Dech" exhibition, it embodies the essence of absolute and timeless design.
