Made to be held, and to hold you

Agustina Bottoni is not just a designer—she’s a quiet poet of objects. Originally from Argentina and now rooted in Milan, her journey took her from the bustling world of fashion in Buenos Aires to the heart of Italian design. After studying at the University of Buenos Aires, she followed her curiosity to Milan’s Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, and in 2016, opened her own studio. Her signature creation, THE GLASS LINE, is a luminous collection of borosilicate glassware—graceful, sculptural, and made with heart. Produced in collaboration with local artisans, each piece carries the soul of Milan’s rich craft heritage and is designed to elevate the everyday. Agustina’s work is a gentle rebellion against the throwaway. Her philosophy? Objects should be lasting, loving companions—honest in material, poetic in form, and created with care. Whether designing tableware, furniture, or installations, she composes with balance, softness, and intention.
