Hi, I am a graphic designer with 20+ years of experience in the field of brand consultancy. As a designer, I am a problem solver, a brand puzzler: I love to untangle branding issues through design with meaning.

Over time, I learned that “context is king”.
There are no two businesses alike, so there is no use for recipes. Therefore, everything I design is “su misura”: I strive to build conceptual, timeless brand identities, and I don’t fall for trends (instead, some of my projects have been selected by LogoLounge to define them).

Throughout my career I've had the opportunity to work on both large-scale branding projects and indie experiments. My conceptual approach in design enabled me to successfully lead difficult branding and packaging projects for clients like Heineken, Vodafone, HBO, Audi, Honda, Orkla Foods and so on.

My work has been recognized in international competitions like Red Dot Awards, Graphis, Rebrand 100 or Pentawards, and many of my projects were published in specialty books worldwide.
