  • Welcome back to our podcast! Today, we're in conversation with artist and designer, Matthew Fisher. Brought up in a family steeped in geology, his early interactions with quarries, dinosaur fossils, and sediment lines imparted a unique understanding of time. This childhood insight fostered a deep love for timeworn materials like stone, a love that shines through in his work today.

    Originally trained as a ballet dancer, Matthew’s career took an unexpected turn after a career-ending injury. After enrolling in an Egyptian Art and Architecture course by chance, he developed an interest that soon expanded to include Roman art and architecture. With his design process deeply rooted in the study of ancient cultures, Matthew skillfully distills modern designs, creating pieces that exude an ambiguity of time and place.

    His work has caught the attention of esteemed publications like Galerie, Surface, and T Magazine, and has been showcased in the Noguchi Museum's group exhibition “On the Verge”. Join us today as we delve into the fascinating creative process of Matthew Fisher!

  • In this episode of The Right Angle Podcast, Elle Liu interviews Francine Monaco, co-founder and principle architect of D’Aquino Monaco. D’Aquino Monaco is a design firm she established in 1997 with Carl D’Aquino to allow and create more opportunity for the dialogue between “the container” and the “contained.”

    As an architect and interior designer, Francine has created a diverse career combining the practical with the magical to create memorable timeless spaces. Her focus on the intersection of architecture and interior design led to a uniquely balanced practice and holistic approach.

    For the past 23 years she served as a professor at Pratt Institute's Interior Design Department. Her constant encouragement for students to pursue design in both conceptual and practical matters, easily made her one of my favorite studio professors when I studied there.

For each project, he created an underlying narrative – inspired by historical context, cultural movements, and behavioral insights – and used it to organize the design and infuse emotion into the guest experience.

    Prior to AvroKO, Matthew was Senior Associate at Rockwell Group, where he developed a wide range of project types, including hospitality, exhibitions, and scenic design. Matthew’s projects have included design for established hotel brands such as Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton, brand creation for the new Arlo hotels, restaurants for clients including Garces Group and Boka Restaurant Group, food halls such as Gotham West Market, and innovative casual dining experiences for Dean and Deluca, Barnes & Noble, and Panera Bread.
