Spaces that work.
Places that speak.
We design and deliver spaces for luxury, from the first sketch to opening day. Design, engineering and site in one team, anywhere in the world.
One partner for the whole project. Design, engineering, site and handover, with the care of an atelier and the rigour of an engineering firm.
IDEM brings architecture and interior design, engineering, project management and works supervision under one direction. We work for luxury brands, hospitality, private residences and corporate clients, with the same standard on every project, in Italy and worldwide.

The whole process, or only the part you need.
Architecture and engineering are not two departments: they are the same project. Every service can be commissioned on its own, in a tailored combination or as the full turnkey process. The client always has a single point of contact.

Luxury is our language. Every space, our field.
From the flagship store to the private villa, from the hotel to the headquarters: same method, same care for detail.

From Florence, wherever the project takes us.
We know the regulations, contractors and timing of every market we work in and we act as local partner: permits, certifications and compliance under the rules of each country. The client finds the same standard in Paris as in Dubai or New York.
Ten years of sites, first hand.
More than fifteen thousand photographs of sites, surveys and openings: here are a few. They were taken by our team, on site, from day one to opening day.

















































A core of designers and a network of more than 65 specialists, under one direction.
IDEM was born in Florence from the meeting of architecture and engineering. Architects, engineers, project and site managers work as one team, joined by selected professionals for every specialist discipline.
