AutoCad is my tool of choice for planning and design.

Often, in addition to designs made directly on the PC I also sketch, draw and do prospective drawings free hand.

This is a helpful visual aid for my clients and often for the craftsmen I work with when explaining construction details.

In my opinion, free hand drawing is still an excellent method for clear, immediate communication, especially in situations when computer access is not available.

My philosophy at work is to never repeat the same design or the same ideas, although it is inevitable that I use the same guidelines I have developed to support my approach to a new job.

I firmly believe in team work. In fact, in the end, all of my projects are the product of the continuous exchange of ideas, information, and meetings with the people with whom I work.

Over the years I have created a team of craftsmen and professionals in a number of fields (graphic artists, engineers, lighting AND DOMOTICS experts, etc.).

This team supports me when I work both in Italy and abroad, providing a very high standard of quality, maximum punctuality, and precision: fundamental for the final customer.

I stay up to date with the market trends by reading a number of trade journals, visiting fairs and shows, and, above all, traveling abroad frequently, especially to New York City.

SPECIFIC JOBS:

Since 2001 I have been working with Zanella Ltd, with their offices in both Italy and New York. I designed new office space for their Italy branch, their new headquarters in Manhattan, a showroom in Milan, and many corners for large department stores.

Since 2004 I have also been working on a number of projects in the Dutch Antilles, on the island of St. Maarten. Specifically, I designed and constructed two apartments, a large villa, and recently completed a building that included restaurant space, an ice-cream parlor, offices and apartments.

For the projects performed abroad, I avail myself of both local and Italian craftsmen, organizing the movement of personnel and procuring materials on site for each project.

Since 2009 I have been working with the Höfer Group, a leading company in the Wellness sector, designing a number of large spas/wellness centers.

I am always interested in new work experience in the field of Interior Design and I enjoy travel and assignments in Italy as well as abroad.

Thank you in advance for your attention.

Kind regard.
