Marco Riccardi’s laboratory strikes a perfect balance between quality, research, and craftsmanship, where design is continuously refined with care and vision, always looking to the future.
Being a bronzesmith means mastering every phase of the process, from the project’s conception to its final realization. Each creation first takes shape on paper, meticulously planned with precision and creativity, laying the foundation for an artistic process elevated to a true “architecture of art.”
The creative journey begins with client consultation and needs analysis, gathering inspirations, stylistic preferences, and technical details to define the client’s objectives and vision.
Next comes the ideation and sketching phase, where conceptual sketches and prototypes are developed to explore forms and details. Once the model is created, the most suitable materials are selected to achieve the desired aesthetics and durability.
Following prototyping, the process moves to technical design and modeling. Detailed drawings with precise measurements are prepared, often using 3D modeling software to visualize the final result and anticipate any technical challenges. Every aspect is meticulously assessed, including the most appropriate casting and finishing techniques.
Finally, the development of a working prototype or model takes place to test proportions, materials, and the feasibility of the final design. This ensures that every piece meets Marco Riccardi’s high standards of quality and beauty, embodying his signature artistry and craftsmanship.
