DESIGNER’s STORY
Moved to Paris after having completed his university studies, he begins his own professional career working together with great masters and defining his own interest as synergy between historical and contemporary.
He deals mainly with interiors and, once came back to Milan, he opens his own atelier in 2011. He works together with companies, fashion brands, professional and private, creating projects that can definitely be connected to every single identity.
