T han ks to an ongoing year-anda-ha l f exp erience, I was a ble to discover a new branch o f A rchite c t ure: Retail design.

I joined t his philosophy, cha llenging mysel f in a brand new proje c t ing sca le: from first dra f t s o f concept ua l phase to exe cut ive drawings, from produc t ion processes to insta lla t ion leveraging on ex terna l suppliers and co lla bora tors.

Em bracing t his ac t ivity, I’ve st rongly increased my skills in proje c t managemen t, acco un t ing wit h clien t s and dire c t ing sites aro und t he world. I’ve be en increasing day a f ter day t he resp onsibilit ies in managing and con t ro lling many ac t ivit ies, such as choosing finishing ma teria ls, designing ligh t ings and a lso drawing customized furnit ure.
