Gio Ponti: Furniture Designer, Artist, Industrial Designer, Architect and so much more

Gio Ponti was an Italian architect (and so much more, as you will see in the video created by theprofile). If you've been to the Denver Art Museum, you've seen a great work of art before you've even walked into the building. The Denvert Art Museum was designed by Gio Ponti. 

Gio Ponti is a perfect example of the difference between someone who has many great ideas, and someone who has many great ideas and ALSO brings them to life. The variety of work he created in his lifetime is beyond impressive.

Here's the Gio Ponti Wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giò_Ponti

 

Thank you to theprofile for creating a wonderful video about Gio Ponti, and for posting it to YouTube so everyone could enjoy it.
