Federico Babina is an Italian architect and graphic designer who has practiced both disciplines since 1994. Born in Bologna in 1969 and based in Barcelona since 2007, he utilizes a minimalist, geometric approach to investigate the structural essence of the world around him. His work is defined by a rigorous yet playful observation of how built environments communicate with other creative forms. His practice often bridges the gap between architecture and popular culture, notably through celebrated series like "Archist" and "Archicine." Babina’s influence extends into industry leadership, having served as a juror for the Archiproducts Design Awards and collaborating on high-profile projects such as the "Hidden Rooms" concept for Salvatori and animated architectural histories for Domus magazine.

Visual voice

Babina’s aesthetic is rooted in geometric minimalism, using clean lines and flat colors to deconstruct complex buildings into graphic icons.
