Milanese by adoption for thirty-three years now, Modigliani continues to be extremely proud of having being born and raised in Florence. He inherited his passion for architecture and design from his parents, who when he was a kid took him to visit sensational places and locations around Italy and Europe. After completing classical studies, his first (much-loved) job was as a graphic designer. His passion for print media took him to work at the editorial offices of “L’Uomo Vogue”, “D la Repubblica delle Donne”, “Elle Decor Italia”, and “AD”, where he naturally moved on to writing.

A professional journalist and digital communication expert, I’m that rare breed: 100% Milanese. With a degree in Philosophy, I had the heady experience of working on a daily newspaper, first in the News section and then in the Sports section of Il Giornale. Then one fine day I discovered the world of design, architecture and interiors and decided to devote myself to that. I started working on the web at the RCS MediaGroup in 2009. I was at Living for a few years and then wrote for Cabana, ViviMilano, Elle Decor and Icon Design.

Matias, who is Uruguayan, has worked in kitchens since he was 14, and four years later he started honing his skills in the kitchens of an Italian restaurant in Montevideo, from which he took off directly for Milan to give his friend and fellow Uruguayan chef Juan Lema, who was already working at the Pont de Ferr, a hand. His boundless creativity meant that it wasn’t long before Matias took up the reins in the kitchen, instituting a veritable revolution in terms of recipes, preparations and presentations.
