The world of architecture and design mourns Tiziana Turi, who died at dawn today, November 12, at the Prato hospital. He was 62 years old and had been battling a serious illness for a long time. She leaves her husband, the well-known physiotherapist Luciano Battiston, and her two daughters Bianca and Irene, who followed in their mother’s footsteps by becoming an architect and joining the Prato Architects 202 team, founded by her mother more than 30 years ago.
Turi was considered a point of reference for the layout of interior spaces thanks to that contemporary touch and at the same time sunny and warm that he knew how to capture in all the contexts in which he operated. Important public interior design projects bear his signature, such as the furniture in the Hall of the City Hall of Palazzo Buonamici and Palazzo Vestri when it housed the offices of the Province and the Apt, the headquarters in via Paronese di Alia Environmental Services and the first aid desk of Mercy and Sweet. These are flanked by an avalanche of collaborations with individuals in Prato and in the rest of Tuscany, such as the arrangement of Caffè 21 and Le Logge, pharmacies, dental offices and even luxury homes. Strong collaboration with the world of sports to furnish especially the homes of footballers, in Florence and abroad. A woman of great taste, effervescent, outgoing and strongly empathic, Tiziana Turi knew how to transmit this radiance of hers in every job she did.
Colleagues and friends also underline his great attachment to Prato, which also resulted in a constant commitment to the city with or without the Rotary club to which he belonged.
Bernardo Biagiotti, who has worked with her for 25 years, remembers her with a voice broken by emotion: “Tiziana distinguished herself as an architect with a special ability to manage and” play “with spaces of all types and sizes, particularly determined in his choices, both the most radical and the simplest and most sober. He has always distinguished himself by his ability to mediate, to translate the wishes of the clients into never trivial realities, both for the simplest works and for the most ambitious, empathizing yet thanks to his luminous personality. Curious and attentive to all forms of art and innovations, he knew how to guide customers towards the choice of innovative products and special solutions always with sobriety and class. Multiple work experiences have made him a complete and recognizable mainly in the field of furniture as evidenced by the numerous interventions carried out for administrations and individuals ”.
For the architect Giacomo Corsi, who collaborated with Tiziana Turi for ten long years, “a friend, a colleague, a great professional in her profession left. One of the happiest and most positive people I have ever met. I had the pleasure to work with her in the first years after graduation and beyond her undoubted technical talents, the profession of architect taught me the most difficult art: how to live in the world of freelance. For this I will always carry it with me in my memories “.
The body is now exposed in the chapels of the farewell of Mercy. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 3 pm in the Cathedral.
