I was born in Bologna, Italy, and since I was a little kid, creativity has been a constant and beloved presence in my life. I graduated from Art High School and then went on to obtain my Bachelor’s degree in Visual Arts and Art History at the Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna in 2012.  While attending university I was employed as a house painter and decorator, which was where my artistic skills and the world of Interior Design collided, and this is how I fell in love with this profession.

​

Early 2013 I left Italy with one purple suitcase and moved to the other side of the world with a 12 month New Zealand work visa. A few short months were enough to realize that I was here to stay. Determined to build my life and career here, I have graduated from AUT in 2014 with my Postgrad Diploma in Design, exploring and refining the skills earned back in Europe.

After living and working in Auckland and Wellington I moved to Dunedin and started my career working with Interior Design.

​

My European heritage and artistic background deeply influence my creations for the New Zealand market, drawing from the Renaissance colour palettes, streamlined innovations of modern architecture and a strong passion for timeless elegance.

 

All packed in that purple suitcase.
