Biography
Maria Cristina Mariani Dameno —better known as Cini Boeri— was a leading Italian architect and designer. She graduated in architecture in 1951 from the Politecnico University in Milan. After a short experience with Gio Ponti, she started to collaborate with Marco Zanuso until she opened in 1963 her own studio in Milan focusing on architecture, interior, and exhibit design both in Italy and abroad. She always gave a great care to the psychological relation between human being and the environment developing uncommon and innovative design solutions.
