Lorenzo Querci

The Climb

Bocconi University and a period in Hong Kong gave Lorenzo Querci a formation built on range: one grounded in business discipline, the other in an international setting that widened the frame. That combination matters in hospitality, where moving between markets, formats, and expectations is part of the work. In Querci’s case, it reads less like a linear apprenticeship than a practical education in how to operate across contexts. That breadth later took shape in Milan through Moebius, founded by Lorenzo Querci in 2019. In 2024, he extended that portfolio with Lubna and Magma, also in Milan. Taken together, those openings mark a steady build: one venue establishing the base, then two more adding reach within the same city. The through-line is not volume for its own sake, but the deliberate accumulation of projects that expand his presence in Milan’s hospitality field. Leadership in this register also shows up in how Querci describes responsibility to the people around the business. “I’ve helped team members buy homes or motorcycles when they needed it,” he said. It is a plain statement, but it points to a working culture where the operator’s role includes practical support, not only opening rooms and staffing them. For artisans, that kind of account says as much about management as any brand statement: the operation is built by people, and kept together by what happens off the floor as well as on it.

Today

Moebius, founded by Lorenzo Querci in 2019, remains the anchor point, while Lubna and Magma, added in Milan in 2024, show how the scope widened without leaving the city. The sequence is clear: establish one project, then build outward with two more. In hospitality terms, that is a method of extension rather than reinvention, with each name adding another layer to the same working framework. Seen together, the three projects give shape to Querci’s current remit. They are not isolated openings; they are a set of operations that build on each other, with Milan as the constant. That consistency is part of the story here. The work reads as cumulative, with each launch reinforcing the last and giving his position in the city a more defined outline.
