Between 1986 and 1996, he worked alongside his wife, architect Terry Dwan – designing buildings both in Europe and in Japan.

In 1987 and in 1994, Antonio Citterio was awarded the prestigious Compasso d’Oro-ADI.

In 2000, Citterio founded “Antonio Citterio and Partners” architecture and interior design practice – developing many projects across the globe and embracing all scales of intervention. In 2010, the practice changed name into “Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel and Partners”. The practice – now known as “ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Cittterio Patricia Viel” is led by Citterio (Chairman), Viel (CEO), and eight partners.
