I am Franco Miotto
I am an Italian interior designer who has refined Birch Plywood
into my signature medium for crafting exquisite furniture pieces.

After graduating from the Fine Arts Academy of Venice in the mid-90s, I completed my studies in Scenography, traveled a bit, and then founded my own company in Italy, focusing on designing and creating custom-made furniture and interiors with a more experimental and artistic approach.
In 2005, I made the pivotal decision to move to London, where I embraced the potential of birch plywood in my work as an interior designer.
This material became central to my practice, allowing me to innovate and craft handcrafted pieces that blend seamlessly with their surroundings.
My expertise lies in the concept of spatial compression, a design philosophy that optimizes space while maintaining an aesthetic of elegance and functionality.
Over the past two decades, I have mastered the art of transforming living spaces through the integration of form and function, with birch plywood serving as the primary medium for my creations.

Innovative Design Through Spatial Compression and Birch Plywood
Durability and Aesthetic Appeal without Sacrificing Spaces.

What does “Spatial Compression” mean?
As previously mentioned, we are living in an era where space has become a luxury. Factors such as:
- Inflation
- Rising building costs
- Limited land availability and its escalating cost
- Increasing property prices
seem relentless in their growth.
The result?
Our living spaces, and those available on the market, are being pushed to the brink of liveability.
Anyone residing in a major city can attest to this reality.

Preserving our Mental Well-Being
So, what can we do?
The only way to preserve our mental well-being and psychological health is through
Organisation infused with a touch of creativity.
Every house or flat contains “negative space.”
The goal is to transform such area, often unused or neglected, into environments that are:
- calm
- organised
- inviting
- cosy
This transformation is achieved using birch plywood or other natural materials as the medium.
