I am an independent Art Director, Visual Designer and Brand Strategist consultant based in Milan. I’m specialized in creation and management of brand identities, commissioned by direct clients as brands, companies and designers, and by design studios as well. Beyond that, I’m a true paper lover, literally obsessed with typography and always curious about what’s on in my city. And also when I travel, I always get in touch with local creative people. © pic by: Mattia Balsamini

Milan / Restaurant

First we should say the flaw, Trattoria Arlati is a bit far away from the city centre and not really easy to get to with public transport. Having said that, it’s the most charming restaurant where we’ve ever been. We always go there and always get the same menu, “Risotto al Salto” and “Ossobuco alla Milanese” of course, and it’s always delicious but is not just the food. In the 60’s it was really popular among artists, in the 70’s bands started to play in the basement and now when you get in you immediately feel it. It’s a charismatic place.

Milan / Restaurant

A fairly new restaurant, managed by young people. The place is beautifully furnished, very minimal and reflects perfectly the quality of the food, a contemporary version of italian cuisine, but absolutely not artefact in its quality. Amazing ingredients, amazing food, and a special bravo to the sommelier.
