GIULIA ARCHIMEDE

After pursuing classical studies, I deepen my academic career by focusing on interior and product design. I concluded my bachelor's degree with a thesis about the concept of travel, entitled "The merging of shape, matter and light: Gmondo". With this thesis, I set the foundations of my work to come in the following 2 years, filled with journeys and discoveries. Satisfying my curiosity by embracing numerous cultures, such as those of South Africa and Finland... Discovering my surroundings but mostly myself. While breathing Cape Town in 2014, year during which the city was the world's capital of design, I found many inspirations to broaden my abilities in projecting furniture and wooden structures. Inspiration that I will deepen when i was admitted at the wood program of Alvar Aalto in Helsinki, where the Saie pavillon, final task of the year, is chosen by Archdaily as Best Student Work Worldwide. Back in Italy the strong Finnish influence was still fresh... Giulia Archimede Designer..
