About ME
Love for Design
My history with design stared as I was a child.
I always wanted to be an inventor, since I started playing with Lego or designing my own racetracks for the RC car.
Thanks to my dad, since I was a child I always have been surrounded by many design objects. My attention was always captured by shapes and mechanisms and I was used to disassemble quite everything I got through my hands to understand how it was working. Growing up I discovered that not only objects were of my interest, but also people and cultures. Attending the German school in Rome, I had the possibility to meet and grow up with people from different cultures, who certainly stimulated my sensibility and curiosity towards people differences and needs.

Products have value
I always try to put my values in all my projects, so that the user can understand them and absorb them. Education is brought by everything that surrounds us from TV shows to architecture; objects are a big part of education, the way one is thought to treat things and the value he gives them are a fundamental turning point for the future behaviour of a person. Learning that some things have a value and some not, that some products have concepts and values behind it, helps us realise where to turn our attention and powers to, to rebuild lost values and principles.

Studying Industrial Design confirmed to me the conviction that technology does not have to stand alone but it has, to stir the emotions and even elevate the spirit. Aesthetics are not an afterthought to the “real world” of business and technology but an essential part of it; an industrial Design product is the fusion of functionality, aesthetics and user needs and it is the outcome of an integrated project.
