About

(1995) Born and raised near Turin (Italy), where I currently live and work.

I design and make furniture with a tailored approach, which is conveyed from products to the creation of custom furnishings and interior design consultancies.

In 2022 I have started my own production grounded in metal, a material that allows technique and aesthetics to expresse themselves harmoniously.

Through my products I try to develop a pragmatic approach to authorial design, in which production and logistic solutions become the statement of an ethical vision.

I have worked with the Turin based studios Nucleo, Studio F and Velvet Studio, and I am professor of Design History and Culture in IAAD.
