Carlo Stanga is an Italian architect, illustrator and author, now working out of Berlin. He trained in architecture at the Polytechnic of Milan, then under designers including Bruno Munari, and has spent the years since drawing for La Repubblica, the Wall Street Journal, UNESCO, and clients across Europe and the United States. This notebook's cover, front and back, is his. It is part of Bonvini's Quaderni d'Autore - a series of notebooks made with artists who work alongside the historic Milan stationery shop on its broader cultural programme of exhibitions, residencies and publications. The spine is Singer-stitched - the visible machine-sewn seam that holds the signatures and lets the book lie flat. The paper inside is made in Italy from post-consumer recycled stock, blank, for whatever the owner needs to put there. Exclusive to Australia.
