about Gloss Design

Gloss Design is an Italian multidisciplinary design studio founded by Architect Stefano Carugno, specializing in advanced Design and R&D solutions across the marine, product, and transportation sectors.
Stefano began his career in leading automotive design centers such as Pininfarina and I.DE.A Institute, later expanding his work through collaborations with European R&D institutions and universities, contributing to research, teaching, and training in the automotive field.
Building on this background, Gloss Design has evolved into an international studio serving clients in Europe, the United States, Asia, and the Middle East. The studio has completed numerous projects from concept to production, supported by strong competencies in advanced 3D modeling, A-Class surfacing, and integrated design development.
Gloss Design maintains long-standing collaborations with the design centers of BMW and Audi, contributing to concept and production vehicles.
In the marine sector, the studio has participated in the design of more than 40 vessels between 6 and 60 meters — including leisure craft, commercial vessels, USVs and special / high-performance boats — working closely with leading experts in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering.
Operating within a network of trusted partners, Gloss Design provides clients with comprehensive, turnkey design and development services, covering concept creation, styling, engineering, production support, prototyping, and project management.
