Editorial design is my passion and my greatest strength. I enjoy creating layouts, coordinated visuals, and posters from scratch, carefully selecting fonts and colors to make a magazine more harmonious, impactful, and easy to read. I have been working in this field for over 22 years. I started with internships at Studio Bonella, where I specialized in creating sacred images, and at Studio Lazzari, where I focused on post-production for fashion shows. Later, I joined JDT, where I worked full-time from 2002 until November 2024, working closely with the Art Director and co-founder of the studio. With his support, I handled the entire graphic design process: from layout development to client presentations, through to page layout, proofreading, and preparing files for print. Over the years, I have worked on the layout of magazines across various sectors—from food, with Cucina Naturale (Tecniche Nuove), to interior design, with Arredo e Design and Ixa (Tecniche Nuove), and environmental topics, with Energia Solare (Tecniche Nuove) and Dalmine Notizie. I’ve also worked in the fashion industry, designing layouts for magazines such as Backstage and Shopping Milano (Studio Uno), as well as for cookbooks like Cucina Vegetariana Golosa (Tecniche Nuove), culinary culture series, medical texts (Ritrattamenti, Chirurgia Parodontale Plastica e Rigenerativa, Solution, Edra), school yearbooks for the German School of Milan, and ethical codes for Bracco. Since December 2024, my role at JDT has shifted to part-time, and starting in January 2025, I have been collaborating with Be-Ma Editore on the layout of Suite magazine, an international reference point in the hospitality and contract industry.
