I’m Riccardo, a Milan-based Visual Communication Designer focused on editorial design, branding, typography, and UI/UX. I enjoy shaping cohesive identities across print and digital media, blending technical craft with human-centered storytelling.
My international experience includes an exchange at Kyushu University in Japan, which broadened my design perspective and sparked interest in generative art and speculative design. I collaborate closely with teams to deliver engaging, culturally informed visuals and user experiences.
