Overview
About Me
My girlfriend Martina and I are temporary nomads that like to wander around and wonder about the point. We're two artists/designers trying to understand the universe as it unfolds before our eyes. We specialize in new media, however we're no strangers to drawing, painting or writing poetry.
My professional interests revolve around design as a whole, especially digital, as I’ve mainly worked in online and OOH advertising as an interactive, graphic and web designer interested in applying the best communication solutions and UI/UX practices to deliver messages in the simplest and clearest way possible. I’m a firm believer in the saying that simplicity is the highest form of sophistication.
My deeper interests lie in creating and experimenting with visual representations of human nature and its interaction with its environment from both the physical and metaphysical point of view. Through different types of mediums be they analog or digital I try and bring out the patterns or the common archetypes that we create and which we let create us.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting like-minded people from anywhere, having a chance to get inspired and hopefully create inspiration for others while exchanging stories about our lives and how we view and experience the world.
