Germano Marchetti was not born an artisan, he became one. His family background and his studies were far from the dust of woodworking, but his passion for this craft was larger than life. Over the years he patiently learned from established master artisans. From his native Italy he travelled the world, becoming a design product manager first, then moving to Barcelona in 2010 where he settled, honed his skills in cabinetmaking and developed his art deco signature style. Germano's specialties are marquetry and veneering. He says he never loses touch with the context and intention of a piece while he is creating it, aiming for a client to still be in love with a piece of furniture in ten years’ time.
