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.
