Hi! I am Maria Pia, a girl who grew up among the alleys and traditions of a small town in Campania.
Today I live in Turin, the city that welcomed me five years ago for university and which I now call home. But my roots are still strong.
And it is from there that my way of seeing and experiencing creativity originates.

And it is from there that my way of seeing and experiencing creativity originates.
When I work on a project, I always try to go beyond aesthetics: I want to tell real stories, to bring out the deep identity of places and people. For me, design is listening, empathy, attention to hidden details that often escape a superficial glance.
I would not call myself a “graphic designer”. I use tools, but what really interests me is to create something that makes sense, that is coherent, sustainable and thought out in a systemic way.
Because beauty alone is not enough. You also need awareness.
