About me
I am a brand designer specialised at the London College of Communication in branding and visual communication with a strong interest for visual research and for graphic design, printmaking and typography. I also have a great passion for visual arts such as drawing, painting, design, architecture and photography which are background knowledge and an essential source of inspiration for the development of my projects.
Projects
  • Manuka
    ManukaThis project was about creating a visual identity for a photographic exhibition by a young Italian talented artist. The aim of the project is to interpret the narrative of the artworks and translating it into a publication.
  • Bridges. The Aesthetic of Connections
    Bridges. The Aesthetic of ConnectionsThis project is about the mechanics of the bridge as a metaphor of connection.
  • Street Art
    Street ArtThis project is an investigation over a chosen topic: Street art. By delving into the subject I concluded that street art is a platform to look at and understand how our society has evolved, how we are expressing our thoughts and by which means we deliver them. The stylistic solution in Street Art have as a result a simultaneous view of the subject represented. Elements such as noise, dynamism, stratification, repetition, confusion and layers of elements reveal the basis of a visual language. This research has been conducted by using a methodology which includes primary and secondary sources, data collection, concurrent activity analysis, deconstruction and visual experimentation.
