About me:
Hello everyone,
I like to combine aesthetics and functionality in my designs. To find inspiration, I not only look in books and museums, but also immerse myself in the world around us. The organic forms of nature guide me, while the grace and aerodynamics of speed sports amaze me.

Minimalism and simplicity are concepts I appreciate in Japanese designs such as MUJI. The philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, which emphasises the beauty of imperfection and ephemerality in artistic creation, is also a source of inspiration for me. I am also inspired by the work of industrial designer Dieter Rams, who developed the concept of 'clean design', and the writings of philosopher Roland Barthes on the meaning of objects and their relationship to culture.
My professional career, navigating between Europe and Asia, has shaped a global approach to design. Having also worked in the captivating world of performance, I consider the subtle interplay between light and shadow to be an essential component of my work. For me, each project is a meeting of materials, technologies and intentions, carefully orchestrated to produce unique and functional designs.
Convinced of the importance of collaboration, I know that sharing ideas with my partners is the key to achieving excellence. Always striving to improve, I firmly believe that simplicity is the key to success.

From Geneva to Tokyo: a creative and inspiring journey
With a heart full of poetry and a curious mind, I arrived in Switzerland in 1979 at the age of 5. My love for drawing and my artistic sensibility guided my professional choices. When I discovered the beauty of architecture, I embarked on a demanding training, spending sleepless nights refining my presentation boards. It was then that the word "design" caught my attention, a trigger that led me to enter the ECAL - École cantonale d'art de Lausanne to pursue my studies in industrial design. Five magical years followed, during which I learned about myself and my abilities.
After graduation, I decided to discover the world of creativity on my own. I took web design courses that were in their infancy before I went to Japan to meet my Asian roots. Every day is a challenge, a balance between doubt and hope, but I continue to pursue my passion for creation. There, I met talented designers such as Mr. Colucci Claudio, Taki Ono, Naoki Sakai and Teruo Kurosaki,, who gave me professional opportunities.
Today, I have accumulated more than twenty years of experience between Tokyo and Geneva, both as a freelancer and as an employee. I have worked for various renowned design studios: IDEE Japon, Claudio Colucci design, Multipes, HH design and Pozzo di Borgo Styling design.
Through my various encounters, I have had the opportunity to work on various projects for prestigious companies, including the following:
Hermes, Omega, Rolex, Tag Heuer, Alex Benlo, Chanel, Jacob & Co, Concord, Corum, Ebel, FP Journe, Jaeger LeCoultre, Manufacture Royale, Longines, Patek Philippe, Swatch, Vacheron Constantin, Audemars Piguet, Baume & Mercier, Cartier, Roger Dubuis, Girard Perregaux, Tudor, Ulysse Nardin, Boucheron, Greubel Forcey, Lacroix, Marlène Bietry, De Grisono, DeLaneau, IWC, Balmain, Parmigiani, Rado, Zenith, Alpina, Panerai, Gerald Genta, Hublot, Piaget, Richard Mille, Olympic commitee, Lalique, Remy Martin, Valmont, Hennessy, Somfy, Marlboro, Philips Morris, Detlin, Martel, Cailler, Mongeard Mugneret, Morand, Whitepod, Embassade Suisse, IDEE JAPAN, Renault...
I thank all the people I have met on my way, because it is these people who have brought me to where I am. It is destiny, and I have always gone where the wind has taken me.
Do not hesitate to contact me for a project, an expertise, a short or long term support, or simply to discuss over a good soda.
