For a time, I worked as a freelance graphic designer, and from 1995 to 2014, I owned a graphics and design agency (Studio B. Design). I immediately became the official graphic designer and printing technician for BIEFFE HOLDING, specializing in the decoration and industrialization of protective helmets and sports accessories, also handling editorial, advertising, and packaging graphics. The agency worked for major international brands, creating entire new collections of helmet graphics. At the same time, the agency continued to work in traditional graphics (publishing, branding, packaging, etc.). Thanks to my in-depth knowledge of various printing techniques and my creativity, I worked for six years as the graphics department manager for a leading company in screen printing and motorcycle helmet production. I subsequently returned to working in the same sectors as a freelancer.
