“I always design items wishing to create a strong bond between the user and the object; sometimes by a symbolic
gesture or a welcoming form, sometimes challenging the conventional design rules not in a harsh but in a smooth and tranquil way.
I design furniture and objects that have nothing to hide, that are characterized by simplicity in their form and clearness
in their construction while aging works in favor of the object.
Continuously experimenting with traditional and contemporary making technics, seeking to push the aesthetic,
technological and craft’s boundaries trying to meet users’ needs and fulfill their expectations for high quality and durability.”
