Description

The original works by Andrea Incontri, designer who intertwines codes and aesthetics of fashion and visual arts, digital communication and applied arts.Andrea Incontri delved into his passion for art and illustration when, in 2016, he started creating his now iconic Tipe Umane.Drawn freehand by the designer on his Instagram account on videos and photos of his daily life, they are female figures, which come alive as rapid yet detailed sketches following no preparatory study. Executed by using the entire Instagram color palette, Le Tipe Umane embody IncontriÆs personal representation of a feminine universe. Ladies walking with their dogs or young girls going out for shopping û women of different ages and attitudes, these characters wear an infinite variety of outfits, curated in every detail, that reveal their diverse personali¼ties and show their creatorÆs attentive observation of aesthetic and social norms.

Referring to HonorÚ de BalzacÆs ComÚdie Humaine, Caro


Andrea Incontri (1971), architect, designer and artist, for many years, Incontri has cultivated a passion for drawing and illustration. He takes continuous inspiration from his day-to-day life, especially from the observation of nameless objects and everyday people. He is fascinated by that apparent normality which is then revealed as being far from normal. He has been men’s Creative Director for Tod’s, fashion designer for Jil Sander, Missoni, Max Mara Fashion Group, Fratelli Rossetti and designer for Samsung Fashion Division and Alessi.
