I'm Michela
Profile
Graduated in product design with a Master course at IUAV University of Venice, in April 2019. Since then, my research and approach to the project has been focused on the relationship between people and spaces. Hence my interest not only in the significance of objects, but how the body adapts and reacts to the spaces and objects that surround them. This why my work has been focused in a range of sectors including furniture, interior, urban and graphic design. My design process is to provide an integrated and ethic approach between all these disciplines.
