ABOUT ME

I'm a bookbinder and book designer, now working on my own. I love everything that comes with books: from paper production to engravings, marbling, gildering... art in general to cut short!

PHILOSOPHY

il futuro sarà terra non di lobotomizzati televisivi ma di avventurosi cosmopoliti

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many books in my heart to choose just a few...
I love cinema, expecially b&w old movies.Enjoy every kind of music, jazz & classic above all, obviously mixed with a hint of Tom Waits!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As long as it's incredible only for me, I've touched a Giotto's tempera on wood in a restoration lab in Florence.

Cooking an italian dinner for eight in the middle of Israel.

Swimming through a storm in Puglia's sea

Teach, Learn, Share

I have studied Art and Cultural Heritage Conservation, and I can share my skills in bookbinding (from paper making to leather working and more) and my love for cooking!
I'd like to learn anything new or crafty, maybe a new language or recipes and cooking habits from all over the world!
