7 questions to get to know me...
What does interior design mean to you?
A means of expression that interacts with people's sensibilities, a visual and spatial language, where every element participates in a subtle interaction with our emotions.
This is a complex field, rich in sub-categories and nuances, where the art of composing spaces goes far beyond aesthetics. Every detail, whether functional or artistic, is chosen for its ability to evoke a reaction, create an atmosphere, tell a story.
What do the projects that inspire you have in common?
The projects that inspire me share an aesthetic that reflects the culture and social issues that surround me. They don't just follow conventional trends, they explore paths less taken, where disciplines intersect and reinvent themselves to meet the challenges of our time.
What inspires you in general?
What inspires me are the social interactions and exchanges experienced in various contexts. These interactions reveal perspectives and emotions that profoundly influence my creativity and vision of design, showing how individual interpretations can enrich my personal vision.
Why did you choose to become a designer?
I chose the design profession to express a personal sensitivity through creation. This choice allows me to satisfy a personal need while making a contribution to the environment and the experiences of others.
What is your favorite part of your job?
My favorite part of the job is the conceptual thinking behind each project, whatever its scale. It's the initial design process, where ideas take shape, where every detail is explored.
What's the best way to charm you?
A good margarita in the sun ;)
Besides design, what are your passions?
I've been drawn to the sea ever since I was a child. The immensity of the ocean and its diversity awaken a kind of passion in me. This connection with water and marine nature enriches my imagination.
