Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi

Spear’s Review

Edo Mapelli Mozzi founded Banda Property in 2007 at the age of 23.

While initially focused on property development and interior design projects in London, he has since expanded the firm into an internationally minded business, with a discreet, ‘end-to-end’ service for HNWs. Clients include a mixture of tech entrepreneurs, media and film types, banking executives and members of royal families. 

Interior projects do not follow a one-size-fits-all approach, although Mapelli Mozzi often draws on natural materials while mixing in some vintage elements. ‘Every project is a blank canvas, and it’s also a collaboration with our client,’ he says. ‘And the location – 30 per cent of what we do in every property needs to be authentic to that location. We like properties that feel of good quality, that will age well and be timeless.’

Recent Banda projects include an ultra-stylish penthouse in Manhattan’s 111 West 57th Street tower, where floor-to-ceiling windows take in views of Central Park. Others, meanwhile, are based in the Alps, Milan and Australia.

The son of a British-Italian Olympian skier, the well-connected Mapelli Mozzi married Princess Beatrice in 2020.
