Fisher Weisman Brugioni is an interior design company founded in 2000 by Andrew Fisher and Jeffry Weisman, with Bryn Brugioni joining as a partner in 2019. The firm has offices in San Francisco, California, and San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

Overview

edit

The company was initially established as Fisher Weisman in 1999 by Andrew Fisher and Jeffry Weisman, who are partners in both their personal and professional lives.[1] In 2019, Bryn Brugioni, who had worked as Weisman's design assistant for 10 years, joined as a partner, and the firm was renamed Fisher Weisman Brugioni.[2]

Fisher studied metal arts, drawing, and sculpture at the California College of the Arts.[3] His background includes designing interiors with John Hallock and creating installations with Tony Duquette.[3][4] Weisman holds a design degree and an MBA from Stanford University.[3] He began his career designing corporate interiors at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill and Gensler before founding his own practice.[4]

The partners' designs were featured in a book they published in 2013, Artful Decoration: Interiors By Fisher Weisman(The Monacelli Press). Margaret Russell wrote the foreword for their book.[4]

Brugioni worked for Fisher Weisman for a decade before starting her own venture. After collaborating on a client project, she became a partner and the firm's San Francisco-based principal and office manager.[2][5]

One of the partners' first design project is their 18th-century home in San Miguel de Allende, which they call Casa Acanto, after acanthus leaves which they used to design the place.[6] Fisher and Weisman were subsequently inspired to create a line of handcrafted furniture, lighting, and accessorie, which they also named Casa Acanto.[7] Their furniture line were sold Sollano 16, a boutique, in San Miguel starting in 2013, and to showrooms throughout the U.S. staring in 2016.[7] Weisman also licenses product designs to manufacturers including Michael Taylor Designs, the Wicker Works, and Boyd Lighting.[8] Weisman's collaboration with Michael Taylor spans approximately 30 years as of 2024.[9]

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the partners acquired a building in Polanco, in Mexico, as their new home and office.[10]
