About

Innovation, new technologies, and alternative materials define MN Studio, reflecting the thirty-year journey of exploration and experimentation by interior designer Massimiliano Naldi.

Born in 1966, Naldi’s roots are deeply embedded in the Tuscan soil that also nurtured Piero della Francesca and Giorgio Vasari. His cultural and artistic growth was significantly shaped within a family environment, particularly influenced by his grandfather, a renowned artist close to the post-war Florentine avant-garde, guiding him towards a career in architecture and design.

By 1995, Naldi became an associate at Studio Baciocchi in Arezzo, where he spent two decades overseeing the design department. This period honed his identity as a designer known for innovative solutions, the use of alternative materials, and the integration of new technologies.

Throughout his career at Studio Baciocchi, Naldi contributed to the development of concepts for prestigious brands such as La Perla, Only Roses, Coccinelle, Golden Point, Waldorf, and Drome. He also designed for Italy’s most exclusive multi-brand stores like Folli Follie, G&B, Wise, Stefania Mode, Valenti, and Cuccuini, among others.

Parallel to his fashion industry work, Naldi focused on residential spaces, crafting refined and original homes that reflect the personalities of their inhabitants and feature the unmistakable warmth of artisanal craftsmanship.

In addition to his primary role as a designer, Massimiliano Naldi continually feeds his insatiable curiosity and desire for experimentation by curating art exhibitions and participating in renowned design events.

In 2018, embracing his evolution, Naldi founded WPA (Work in Progress Architecture) based in Arezzo, taking on projects both in Italy and internationally. WPA has notably designed architectural projects for major luxury fashion stores such as Tessabit, Angelo Minetti, and Susi.

With nearly thirty years of experience, in 2021, Naldi embarked on an individual professional journey and established MN Studio.
His goal is to encapsulate his extensive and intricate process of architectural research and experimentation.
Specializing in retail and luxury fashion design, MN Studio also excels in crafting cutting-edge living spaces and interior design.

Massimiliano Naldi’s signature is evident in each creation, distinguished by meticulous attention to every detail, from the selection of innovative materials to avant-garde construction solutions.
