MIRO is an architecture studio founded in Bologna, Italy in 2009.

The office operates mostly in residential and commercial interior design but since its birth brings on a continuous research in the architectural planning field, through competitions and large scale proposals (often mixing architecture and business projects).

The office’s operational field ranges over a wider area that includes object design, graphic art, garden planning and temporary settings. MIRO won several prizes and mentions in national and international competitions and in 2011 has been included by New Italian Blood in the Top 10 of the most promising under 35 architecture offices of the country.
