Founded and led by Sarah Zezza, SZZ is a Milan — based architectural practice that reflects Sarah’s strong design skills, extensive technical knowledge, and wealth of experience as lead architect — enabling her to manage projects of various types and complexities.

Each project is designed to deliver a bold boost to everyday living.

With a seamless blend of creative vision, in-depth technical expertise, and cross-disciplinary competencies, SZZ approaches architectural challenges of all scales with dedication, confidence, and precision.

Our portfolio reflects an integrated and flexible approach — encompassing new builds and extensions, thoughtful residential and commercial renovations, immersive installations, interior design projects, and custom-made furnishings.

These areas of intervention are interconnected phases of a comprehensive process that we are equipped to manage in their entirety, delivering fully integrated architectural services through the support of a flexible and scalable team.

From initial concept to the Grand Opening — or for targeted support at any stage — SZZ can manage the entire project or step in exactly where needed to help shape meaningful places.

At the heart of our work lies a client-focused approach, rooted in a deep understanding of each client’s vision, needs, and aspirations.
Transparent processes and open dialogue fuel design that goes beyond the expected — optimizing space, enhancing comfort and aesthetics for private clients, unlocking value and potential for investors, and crafting expressive, brand-aligned spaces for companies and retail.

Aesthetics, functionality, user experience, and purpose guide the creation of tailored, lasting design solutions — transforming spaces into meaningful places where people love to live, work, and connect.

This design philosophy, deeply rooted in Italian culture, is grounded in solid experience and proven results.
We approach new builds and extensions with deep respect for existing structures, revitalizing them through design solutions that infuse new life and coherence into the entire project.
We have extensive experience in residential design, where the client’s personal identity converges with comfort and a welcoming atmosphere.
A key strength of our practice lies in designing bespoke furnishings that make each space truly one of a kind. At the same time, we are skilled in sourcing high-quality, ready-made pieces that enhance the character of every interior project.
Our award-winning office design projects reflect our ability to interpret contemporary work needs and create spaces that transcend the conventional idea of a workplace — a skill recognized when we won a competition to design an Innovation Hub dedicated to sustainable innovation.
Our creative vision, which extends from temporary installations to showroom design, was recognized with our winning proposal for a vegetable garden installation at an Expo 2015-related event in the Royal Villa Gardens in Monza, and has seen several of our projects featured during past editions of Milan Design Week.
We were selected by the Milan Architects’ Foundation to participate in Homi at Milan Fiera, presenting our work during the Design and Sustainability and Retail editions of the event.
Our experience with international clients ensures a fluid and effective design process in cross-cultural contexts.
