BEHIND THE SCENES

Opportunity To Grow

Moving to Milan to work for Studio Volpi was an incredible and transformative experience. Over four months, I gained a new perspective on the world, life, and design. Relocating to a country where I knew no one and living in the heart of Milan with limited Italian skills, I embraced the Italian culture and built cherished memories. This journey not only enhanced my professional skills but also enriched my personal life in ways I had never imagined.

Living in Milan and working at Studio Volpi was not just a professional journey but a personal one. Navigating a new city, embracing a new culture, and learning a new language all contributed to a richer, more nuanced approach to design. This experience broadened my horizons and deepened my appreciation for global design perspectives.

Adapting to Italian work culture was a unique experience. It required balancing creative freedom with the meticulous attention to detail that Italian design is known for. This cultural integration enriched the design process and led to innovative solutions.
