About

Interior designer and art director with over 15 years of experience across luxury brands, hospitality, retail, and exhibition design.

After graduating from Politecnico di Milano, I worked for six years at Paola Navone’s studio, contributing to international projects ranging from hotel design and retail environments to exhibitions and scenography. This experience shaped a strong sensitivity for materials, spatial identity, and narrative-driven environments.

Since 2013, I have been working as a freelance designer, developing projects in interior design, art direction, and brand environments for clients such as Max Mara Group, Cassina, and leading design studios. My work spans retail concepts, hospitality spaces, exhibitions, and set design.

I specialize in transforming spaces into cohesive, atmospheric environments where layout, materials, and visual direction support both function and storytelling.

Retail Concept & Flagship Design – Weekend Max Mara, Tokyo

Concept design, art direction, and interior design for the retail identity of Weekend Max Mara, starting from the flagship store in Ginza, Tokyo. The project was developed from the ground up, defining the spatial concept, visual language, and overall brand environment. It included the design of custom furniture and the creation of a modular retail system later adapted across multiple international store openings. The design focuses on a balance between architectural structure and atmosphere, using materials, layout, and display systems to create a cohesive and recognizable identity across different locations. interiordesign retaildesign artdirection spacedesign
