L'architecte et designer Marcelo Joulia, originaire d'Argentine, a étudié en France avant de fonder sa propre agence, "Marcelo Joulia Naço", en plein cœur de Paris en 1991. Sa vision globale transparaît à travers son approche unique qui intègre l'architecture, le design d'intérieur, le design de produits et graphique, ainsi que la scénographie. Il embrasse les cultures internationales et relève tous les défis avec un regard novateur, que ce soit pour des maisons individuelles, des hôtels, des restaurants branchés, des bureaux, des boutiques, des bateaux ou encore du mobilier de design. En langue guarani, "Naço" signifie "intuition", l'un des nombreux mots qui illustrent le désir de liberté du fondateur de l'agence. Aujourd'hui, 30 ans plus tard, Marcelo Joulia Naço possède un réseau de bureaux à Paris, Shanghai et Buenos Aires, et intervient dans plus de 20 pays.
