About

We believe in architecture shaped by sustainability and driven by innovation — a design culture that responds to context while anticipating the future.

Based in La Spezia, Milan, Paris, and Dubai, working internationally, Marco Bernardini Architects
designs spaces combining experience and technological depth with a clear architectural identity.
Each project is rooted in place, shaped by dialogue, and tailored to the specific needs of clients and communities.

Our approach brings together advanced tools such as 3D printing, BIM,
and cutting-edge technologies, supported by processes with a strong commitment
to material quality and design precision. We work across disciplines and scales,
translating complex ideas into coherent, efficient, and enduring spaces.

At the core of our work is a belief in architecture as a tool for impact — spatial, social, and cultural,
able to generate long-term value while remaining responsive to the evolving challenges of our time.

We craft architectural identities timeless expressions of precision and excellence.

We work with clients who value discretion, clarity, and enduring quality.
For us, architecture is not about spectacle — it’s about designing spaces that speak quietly,
but with presence. Every detail is considered, every line purposeful.
From private residences to cultural landmarks and bespoke yachts, our projects reflect a commitment to excellence that goes beyond style.

Approach

Flexible Thinking, Precise Making

Our design method is based on continuous dialogue
with clients, with places, and with change.
We see architecture not as a fixed solution, but as a flexible process that adapts to the needs of each project.

By integrating research and our solid experience from the early stages, we are able to develop strategies that combine clarity, customisation, and long-term efficiency. Each project evolves from specific conditions: site, function, ambition. We respond to these conditions with technical precision, but also with sensitivity to space, time, and materials.
The result is an architecture that balances innovation with coherence, and vision with control.

Good architecture
it is about sensitivity.

We manage the entire architectural process — from early-stage ideation to on-site execution — using collaborative workflows and integrated digital systems.

  • We design homes that are deeply personal, combining technological precision with spatial clarity. Each residence is tailored to context, lifestyle, and long-term value, integrating sustainable systems and custom-built elements.

  • Our design services for the yachting industry are defined by precision, adaptability, and discretion. We develop custom interiors, architectural elements, and onboard environments that reflect the highest standards of spatial clarity and material quality.

    Working closely with the best naval engineers, shipyards, and private clients, we create solutions that respond to the unique constraints of movement, scale, and performance. Every detail is calibrated — from layout optimization to finishes — to ensure elegance, comfort, and lasting identity in confined, dynamic spaces.

    Whether for refits or new builds, we bring architectural discipline to the complexity of yacht design, delivering spaces that are as refined as they are resilient.

  • Our projects in hospitality and culture balance functionality and identity. We create spaces that offer a strong experience, rooted in place and enhanced by innovation — from material choices to layout strategies.

  • We collaborate with developers who value design as a key asset.
    Our contribution brings architectural depth to exclusive projects, combining performance, elegance, and a distinct spatial identity. elemento

  • We approach interior and industrial design as an extension of architectural thinking. From spatial layout to custom furniture and product elements, our work focuses on coherence, material quality, and user experience — always tailored, always essential.

  • From cultural foundations to public administrations, we develop projects that reflect civic values. Our work focuses on architectural clarity, durability, and a sensitive response to site and function.

Projects

Over the years, MBA has worked across sectors and geographies, designing buildings and spaces that reflect a consistent commitment to quality and purpose. Our portfolio spans private residences, cultural institutions, public competitions, and hospitality spaces — as well as more experimental formats like installations and temporary architecture.

In every project, our focus remains the same: to create environments that are functional, intelligent, and meaningful. Whether small or large in scale, our work is the result of specific thinking, shaped by its context and guided by a clear architectural intent.
