Studio GISTO, founded in 2010, develops design and research projects with attention to the context, resources, sustainability of materials and circular development processes. The working method involves a collaborative approach in all phases, from design to implementation, and a close relationship with institutions, companies, realities active in the territories. A multidisciplinary team guarantees attention to the quality of the projects and the well-being of all the people involved.

Frakas Design  Following our initial project for Parco Gallery, completed in 2024, we returned to Via Zuretti, now Frakas Studio, to follow its next phase. The project arose from the need to create a dedicated space for production: a home for the neighbourhood’s new Risograph printer, but also a venue for workshops, laboratories and collaborative working sessions.

Framing Problems  From a single stable form, the cone, a whole exhibition language: freestanding concrete bases, aluminum poles, and custom 3D-printed fittings, modular and reconfigurable, carrying colophons, texts and labels across every venue of Framing Problems, guiding visitors through works by Steyerl, Forensic Architecture and others across the city.

Tavolo Mariano  One year after Fradeo, another dialogue with Enzo Mari: not a replica, but a reinterpretation. His truss table's logic — cut whole from one sheet, joined only by nails — is inverted into buttress-like legs, letting construction itself shape a new archetype for the Ferrando Family in Turin.

A Journey Into Biodiversity  The exhibition curated by Telmo PIevani part of the 24th Milan Triennale Inequalities is presented as a journey into biodiversity through eight immersive stations that tell the stories of cities and communities around the world. Each station leads to a sensory immersion and recounts a key concept of biodiversity through stories whose central theme is the possible co-evolution of human activities and ecosystems, happy to be part with our exhibition design.

Dati Sensibili  Dati Sensibili turns Olivetti's archive into a live conversation. Akira Kimura's storage containers become both content and support; nine unrolled velvet carpets flatten the Sala dei Plebisciti into a non-hierarchical ground for dialogue with OLO.

Seeing Beyond Fading  A project by Daniele Costa on the line between presence and absence, made visible through a warmth that resists disappearing, transforming the body into a shared landscape.

Tavolo Fradeo  Tavolo Fradeo is a table created as a tribute to the work of Enzo Mari, designed for shared assembly and easy transport, turning the act of moving it into a collaborative experience.

Parco Gallery  Parco Gallery is the graphic design gallery and bookshop, a meeting place in between designers, schools, locals and lovers from the neighbourhood, a place for talk, exhibition, book selling, meeting room, and party room. We designed a new landscape to be configured in multiple scenarios to maximise the use of space.

The Gossips' Chronicles  Set design of an immersive scenography at Venice Immersive, the Extended Reality section of the 81. Venice International Film Festival

Frantoio Sociale  The project's aim is to reveal and promote alternative practices of transformation and re-circulation of materials through workshops, events and dialogues.

Circulations  Development of the artworks in dialogue with artist Rossella Biscotti through drawings, models and prototypes in order to make the project system of elements that can be adapted and modulated within the exhibition space. The project was initially developed for the artist's solo exhibition at Castello di Rivoli and then remodelled and implemented for the Sharjah Biennial 2025

GISTO is a studio/workshop based in Milan and Treviso, working in between architecture, design and craftsmanship.
