Rolf Milesi | President
The driving force behind Supermodelli. German-Italian who had a 20 – plus year career in Frogdesign’s model shop, most recently as its director. True to the European heritage, Rolf combines a passion for Italian design with the rigors of German engineering. Rolf embodies the most highly sought – after traits in the product development field, those of deep domain expertise, broad creativity, unwavering quality and ahead-of-schedule delivery that are, quite frankly difficult to replicate.
