In 2002, he founded Achille Salvagni Architetti creating interiors for high-end properties and yachts. In 2013, he moved to making bespoke furniture with the opening of his first atelier in Rome. This was followed by the 2015 opening of a flagship gallery space on Grafton Street in Mayfair, London.[2]

His work is often characterised by its incorporation of rich, noble materials such as bronze and onyx, as well as being heavily influenced by his Roman heritage and classical mythology. [3][4][5]

His home and extensive art collection have been profiled in Architectural Digest[6] and The Telegraph among others. He is a noted collector of artworks from the Arte Povera movement.[7]

In 2019, the first monograph of his work was published by Rizzoli Books, written by design critic Pilar Viladas.[8][9][10]
