Branca, Inc.

Call her a passionate neoclassicist. Alessandra Branca developed an aesthetic steeped in antiquity. Nonetheless, she’s a designer of our times. American designers have always absorbed and reinterpreted influences from abroad to create a distinctly Yankee sense of style. So what happens when a designer born and raised in one of the most style-conscious countries and one of the oldest cities in the world comes to love, live and decorate on the plains of the Midwest? When that designer is the Italian-born Alessandra Branca, it means that her work includes Italian luxuriousness, English country comforts, French sensuality and a healthy dose of New World energy and practicality. Her work is known for its updated classicism and comfortable chic interiors which include a combination of wonderful upholstery and patterns, antiques mixed with contemporary furniture, art and accessories within beautifully edited and detailed spaces.

With over 200 interiors projects on 3 continents, Branca is frequently published both nationally and internationally, as well as broad array of product designs and her first book, “New Classic Interiors” bears out her focus on craftsmanship and quality and her seamlessly chic style. Dividing her time between offices in Chicago and New York, Branca finds constant inspiration in the world around her. Recently a keynote speaker for Architectural Digest on social media, the design maven shares her inspirations with her 16k+ Instagram followers. Her work has been receiving accolades for years, including ELLE DÉCOR’s A-List year after year, and the awarding of House Beautiful’s first Master Class Designer and a host of new projects that continue to come her way which range from interiors for residences as well as commercial projects for a global clientele.
