    I am about to receive my degree as a designer. I focused particularly on communications design. I consider that the two abilities that I developed were investigation and graphic expression: from art direction, to editorial design and illustration. I am very passionate about books and about making conceptual connections in order to get insights. To me, design is a dialectic, sensitive and relative methodology that is carried out in order to give a particular response to a situation, object or user in a multidisciplinary and specific context. It’s a permanent dialog between the abstract and concrete realms, aiming to visualize, synthetize and making information tangible. The design works in and in between several binary levels: theoretical/practical, functional/ aesthetic, superficial/ deep, individual/ collective, general /particular, social/ exclusive. Design is not only a way of thinking and feeling, it transcends into a way of life.
