With design projects ranging from toothpicks to 6-star hotels, Gabriele Chiave certainly has a diverse portfolio of winning looks. Regardless of the nature and size of the product, however, attention to detail is the underlying priority. After all, he is creative director for Marcel Wanders, Dutch design house extraordinaire, and his job is to ensure that Wanders’ design philosophy and spirit shines through in each and every project.
