    <p>Industrial design from A to Z. Where I did everything: Ideation sketches, 3D modelling (ready to manufacture), 3D visualisation, parametric design...</p> <p>But I didn't just focus on the shape but also developed a comprehensive CMF (Colour, Material, Finish) strategy, where every design element has a deliberate purpose. I combined a parametric evolutive texture with a subtle, yet striking colour selection to create a truly luxurious and desirable product that not only redefines the boundaries of technology but also sets a new standard for sustainability. </p>…

Throughout this process, it was imperative to adhere to the confidentiality agreements of the brand and consider the desires and expectations of its target audience.</p> I created several universes, starting with trends research, moodboards and advancing to computer-generated imagery.

    uniE621 Vivaluz collection. Sustainable lifestyle accessories and furniture with recycled clothes.
    Eco-Friendly Furniture & Circular Material Innovation <p>I designed a collection of sustainable furniture and fashion accessories for Vivaluz’s catalogue, crafted from rigid panels made using repurposed fashion waste. My role covered product conceptualisation and development, resulting in ready-to-manufacture designs. A key innovation lies in the holistic approach: each piece is made from a single plaque, eliminating cutouts and minimising waste. The self-contained structure requires no glue or additives, making it fully recyclable, repairable, and easy to disassemble, supporting a circular economy.</p> <p>This material, introduced to the market in 2021, was developed using a dry dyeing technique—without pigments or additives—by carefully selecting and blending fibres. Since then, we have focused on creating diverse products and colour variations aligned with market trends. </p> <p>The project was shortlisted for the Circoax Program, a circular fashion innovation initiative organized by the European Union, receiving EU funding and awards for addressing one of fast fashion’s biggest challenges: the rapid cycle of consumption and disposal.</p> 3Ddesign CAO product ecodesign fashion furniture retail id design Hangers](https://www.twine.net/signin Paper prototype](https://www.twine.net/signin Collection Vivasoft](https://www.twine.net/signin Collection Vivasoft](https://www.twine.net/signin…
