ABOUT ME

Design is my language, and the product is its purest expression.

Through shapes, materials, and details, we tell stories that connect emotion, culture, and function.

Every object carries a narrative: a dialogue between idea and craftsmanship, intuition and strategy.

After studying "geometra" and earning a Master's in Interior Design at NAD in Italy, I chose to cultivate my greatest passion: the product.

In every product, I see a story: a fragment of culture, memory, and human connection.

Shapes, textures, and materials become a language that speaks of time, craftsmanship, and meaning.

I collaborate with excellent partners and constantly train to seek new ways to innovate and inspire. My multicultural vision drives me to imagine places that combine functionality, aesthetics, and emotion, creating unique experiences for those who live there.

Passion for design

Design has always fascinated me for its ability to turn emotion into tangible experience and to create real value.
From this vision, 
CHD – Castiglioni Hue Design was born: a multidisciplinary hub that brings together product consultancy, sales, design and training.

Each area interacts within a single, vertical system where the design product is the core — the origin, the tool and the outcome of every process.
Through CHD, I transform my passion into a strategic approach that connects design culture, market insight and innovation.

What sets me apart

My approach to design is based on constant training and continuous updating. My curiosity has allowed me to work and live in different countries such as Italy, Switzerland, France and Sweden, coming into contact with very different styles and products. This international experience enriches my work and allows me to respond to the needs of each client with innovative solutions suited to the context.

My vision

My future is about building stronger connections between design, people, and organizations.
I want to share my vision through projects, consulting, and educational initiatives that
help professionals, brands, and institutions embrace design as a driver of evolution and value.
I believe in
design as a language that unites aesthetics, function, and emotion — and as a strategic tool to foster innovation, culture, and collective well-being.
I will keep imagining, creating, and experimenting, because for me design is a living ecosystem — a bridge between ideas and people, between the present and the future.

CONSULTING

Product


Through Product Consulting, I assist companies, showrooms, and designers in creating or selecting design objects capable of conveying value, emotion, and recognition.

I analyze the coherence between form, function, and identity, ensuring that each product becomes an extension of the brand and the space in which it resides.


“Design is not just how an object looks, but how it makes the person who experiences it feel.”

(inspired by Dieter Rams & Steve Jobs)

01 Product, for me

Design is not just an aesthetic value, but a language that communicates, improves and transforms. A good design product can revolutionize a space, make a daily activity more fluid and enrich our way of life.

I create unique design products, designed to improve daily life through intelligent shapes, materials and functions.

I participate in design contests, testing my creativity and comparing myself with international trends.

I develop innovative patents, bringing original solutions to the market that redefine the use of objects.

My patent, the refrigerator that revolutionizes space: "Tower"

I developed and filed a design patent for an innovative and unique refrigerator, which combines advanced technology and sophisticated aesthetics. It is not just an appliance, but a design element that transforms the kitchen into an experiential space.

HOSPITALITY


Through hospitality and restaurant consultancy, I assist owners, chefs, architects, and brands in creating coherent, experiential, and recognizable spaces that convey both emotion and precision.


"When the guest arrives, give him an experience that’s ahead of what he anticipates."

Sol Kerzner (founder of ikonic resorts)

01 Hospitality, for me

Hospitality, for me, is an art — a silent one.
It’s the ability to make 
something extraordinary out of what feels ordinary to the guest.

Design plays a fundamental role in this process: it shapes emotions, defines atmospheres, and creates harmony between space and experience.
Because an interior, whether it’s a hotel room or a restaurant, is not just a place — it’s something someone will live.

The beauty of a restaurant lies in its balance between comfort and elegance, in a service so impeccable it feels natural, in the warmth of a perfectly made bed, in the quiet pleasure of opening a French doors and breathing on a terrace that feels like home.

Good hospitality design doesn’t need to shout; it whispers through light, texture, and proportion.
It’s about crafting spaces that welcome, calm, and inspire — places that guests will remember, not for what they saw, but for 
how they felt.

02  Consulting

In the world of hospitality, every detail shapes an experience.
Design, service, and atmosphere must speak the same language to create spaces that welcome, inspire, and stay in memory.
