Fabrizio Giugiaro

Born in Turin on March 7, 1965, Fabrizio continued his family's artistic path by attending the Liceo Artistico and later the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Turin.
As a teenager, free from school duties, he followed his father Giorgetto by enthusiastically immersing himself in the magical atmosphere of Italdesign: The Style Center, the Model Shop, the Prototype Construction Laboratory.

The complementary nature of this world transmits to him that all-encompassing culture of design that involves experimenting with new structural composite materials for chassis and subassemblies, engines applied to new sources of propulsion, techniques for allocating mechanical apparatus in the chassis layout, the most innovative safety devices, driver assistance systems, on-board comfort and infotainment.

In 1991 Fabrizio assumed responsibility for managing research cars. His creativity is expressed in autonomous designs of experimental vehicles and in the constructive and performance conception of vehicles to be developed at the company engineering centers. At the same time he attends the two-year Management course at the Industrial Union of Turin, earning a diploma in Business Administration.

In July 1995 he was appointed Head of Style and Prototypes at Italdesign, supervising a hundred employees and developing 30 to 150 projects a year. Since 2004 he has also been responsible for managing Giugiaro Design, which, alongside the parent company, has been developing exclusively non-automotive design projects since 1981.

In 2010 Italdesign became part of the Volkswagen Group. Fabrizio will continue in the same role for 3 years before taking on the position of style consultant for the Group, reporting directly to the Volkswagen Group Style Manager.
On March 15, 2012, Fabrizio Giugiaro was awarded an honorary degree in Architecture from Georgian Technical University in Tbilisi, Georgia. Fabrizio Giugiaro has contributed to the growth of Giugiaro Architettura in the world of design and architectural development with constant innovation in the services and activities offered.

In 2016, together with his father Giorgetto, he created GFG Style, a new company totally dedicated to design services for the automotive sector, of which he is still managing director. Following the line of work developed in over 50 years of activity in the sector, GFG Style continues the path of method, functional and stylistic, that characterizes the Giugiaro Family.

The design methodology adopted by Fabrizio Giugiaro emphasizes functional elements combined with comfort. Each creative challenge is approached with a focus on feasibility and production costs through the use of the most advanced technologies.

Fabrizio is President of Giugiaro Architettura parent company of GFG Style and GFG Rail, a company totally dedicated to design services within the rolling stock industry.
