Ciao,
I’m Matteo Renna multidisciplinary independent designer working internationally between Milan and Amsterdam.
Currently based in Amsterdam I’m co-founder of Studio MAST / wearemast.eu
My works range between physical and digital with a focus on creating spaces and experiences for people, to live and remember.
With a strong passion for interior design and architecture, I merge my knowledge of user interaction, digital and spatial design with the beauty of Art, aiming to imagine and develop a new sustainable and fair future through meaningful moments.
After graduating in Interior design in Milan, I’ve worked as a visual and product designer in Italy and Switzerland.
Keen to take a step forward in my design career I moved to Amsterdam where I was welcomed in one of the most creative design firms of the city: NorthernLight, taking leading roles for projects like: “Brew You Ride – Heineken Experience”, “WordPressPhoto Flagship exhibition” in the Nieuwe Kerk, and international concepts and pitches for Museums in Europe, China (Shanghai Science and Technology Museum) and Russia (Park of Science and Art Sirius).
In 2019 I hosted a workshop during FrameLab with the topic: Closing the Distances: Can Technology Create Community? and in 2020 I was selected as a jury member to award the interior of the month for the Frame Awards 2021.
During the same year, I joined the fastest-growing company in the Netherlands Rituals on the design and development of their very first flagship store, House of Rituals.
