Studiopepe was founded in 2006 in Milan by Arianna Lelli Mami and Chiara Di Pinto. Both studied at the famous Politecnico di Milano University where Lelli Mami studied interior design and Di Pinto studied industrial design.
This broad background has made Studiopepe a multidisciplinary design agency working in interior design and architecture as well as in creative guidance and product design. Studiopepe's philosophy is based on a conceptual approach inspired by the unexpected and visionary, generating results that are unique in their own right. Studiopee's design can be described as structured and strict, yet eclectic and poetic. Their designs are recognizable by their strong identity created through a lot of experimentation and careful research on colors and materials. Since Lelli Mami and Di Pinto founded Studiopepe, they have gained international recognition for their unique color palettes and well-composed interiors. Studiopepe has a long CV of successful projects and collaborations. Fritz Hansen's flagship store in Milan, the MaxMara building in Tokyo and collaborations with Agape, &Tradition, Elle Décor and Fendi are just a few examples of all the projects and collaborations Studiopepe has been involved in.
In 2015, Arianna Lelli Mami and Chiara Di Pinto set up a branch of their studio to dedicate their work to retail, private interiors and product design. They focus on experimenting with new combinations of colors, shapes and materials. They allow themselves to be inspired by a wide range of subjects, such as astronomy and art, in order to find a unique and new aesthetic. They believe that beauty is not only related to form, it is rather a moral attitude.
At NO GA you will find products designed by Studiopepe for brands such as Baxter, Audo Copenhagen, Tacchini and Petite Friture. For Petite Friture, they have created the Unseen lighting series consisting of table lamps and chandeliers inspired by classic neon lamps. The series was launched in 2020 to celebrate Petite Friture's 10th anniversary.
