06 — Interactive Installation · IED Milan · October - February 2025

YUGEN

An interactive multimedia installation inspired by the Japanese concept of Yugen — a profound awareness of the universe that touches the emotions and a deep sense of beauty. The project explores the relationship between boredom as creative space and the immersive sensory experience that arises from it.

A rotating globe projects videos of places around the world, an accelerating clock governs the rhythm of the installation, and a graphics tablet turns drawings into real-time wall projections. All programmed in Max8.

Cantastorie Campari

University project in branding, storytelling and editorial design with a realistic brief: Campari × BookCity Milano 2025. I led the design of the "Cantastorie" magazine — typography, editorial layout, AI illustrations of Milan — and produced the communication materials, video and social content with realistic mockups.

Design & Coding,
Together.

Media Design graduate from IED Milan. I call myself a "Digital Designer": someone who uses creativity together with technical and technological skill to turn ideas into reality. Driven by curiosity and passion, I design and build exactly what you need.

I currently work as a freelancer and collaborate with various companies on front-end and back-end projects. I also teach a back-end course at IED Milan.
