    paper Moi Même

    Moi Même is a Milanese story that celebrates beauty and understated elegance, and pays homage to an authentic and timeless style.

    Moi Même is a brand of bags and jewellery, the timeless gold charm gives a clear and sophisticated allure to those who wear them
    For this project I’ve lead the entire UI, UX
    and front-end development.
    A minimal appearance and neutral and “timeless” colors were the customer’s request, all paired by a simple and as intuitive experience as possible, leaving the word to the product and its craftsmanship.
