Who we are

Meet the Founders

Founded in 2013 by Italian friends and design, marketing and communication specialists – as well Chinese culture experts – Edoardo De Bastiani and Umberto Brugni, Deus has acquired a rich portfolio and enjoyed sound and professional working experiences in China and abroad.

The Deus team comprises of Italian and Chinese designers, problem-solvers and artists, who all boast different yet complementary skills and interests.

Why DEUS

Our name comes from the Latin phrase, deus ex machina; (literally god from the machine), which was also a plot device used in Ancient Greek theatre: when somebody in the story found themselves in very deep trouble with apparently no way out, a new character playing God (deus) would often descend on the stage by crane (machina). This character – who literally fell down from the sky – would thusly resolve all the existent problems and conflicts, making everything work out beautifully.
