Diego had the challenge of creating the new logo for the company and designing the gallery’s first publication under the new ownership: Colnaghi – Past, Present and Future. An Anthology. This book illustrates the remarkable works of art Colnaghi has sold in the course of its long history of over 250 years, while also documenting recent changes in the company and looking ahead to its future. Despite the eclectic nature of the material included in the anthology, the publication is striking for the clear harmonious presentation of both text and images and the originality of the overall design.

Over the last thirty years, Diego Fortunato has developed an international reputation for his conceptual art and for his wide-ranging industrial designs which have been manufactured by many of the world’s leading brands. From 2012 to 2019, Diego was the creative director at the Coll & Cortés Gallery (London and Madrid) and from 2015 to 2019 at Colnaghi (London and New York), following its acquisition by Coll & Cortés. In this capacity, in 2016 Diego designed Colnaghi’s new 400 sq. metre gallery on Bury Street in London's St. James's. With innovative use of cutting-edge architecture and interior design, Diego created a distinctive gallery space suited to the challenges of art-dealing in the 21st century, while at the same time respecting the historic traditions of Colnaghi, which is one of the world's oldest and most prestigious art dealerships.
