My ethos

Waving hand emoji

I believe that design should serve not only functional and aesthetic needs but also uphold human values and make a positive impact. I'm on a mission to elevate Design in companies and ensure it is considered as a strategy, not an after thought.

A little bit about me

Hello, I'm Domenico, from Italy,
I might move my hands while I talk and judge your every pizza-related choice, but other than that, I am easygoing (my friends tell me). In my free time, you might find me peacefully ambling through the forest, soaking up peaceful vibes, only to cap it off with a fireside meal. Or, I might be in my natural habitat, glued to my gaming chair doing solo or co-op games while munching snacks.

This duality ensures that my bank statements are an almost poetic mix of outdoor gear and gaming purchases. Don't ask me how many unplayed games I have in my library or how many backpacks I have spread around. Because I don't have any, wink-wink.

I'm also the person who knows about that scary show you're into, and I'm all in for talking about weird movies and what they might really mean. At work, Design has been my dream job since I was little. I’ve always believed that good design is key to making businesses better. I bring this passion to every project and meeting I'm part of.

My process

1 - Discovery and Research

To understand the problem or challenge, it is critical to allocate time for discovery and research. Achieving clarity and gaining insights are crucial for the product's success

2 - Strategy and Planning

With a clear understanding, it's time to develop a strategic plan. This includes defining goals, objectives, and KPIs. Breaking down the goal into smaller objectives and laying them down in a roadmap is part of this step.

3 - Design and Execution

Once a solid strategy is in place with enough clarity to visualize a solution, design can begin. Starting from low-fidelity concepts, all the way up to prototypes, this step is broken down into multiple touchpoints.

4 - Measurement and Optimization

After launch, the work doesn't stop. Using feedback from users, data analytics, and any other available insight after launch, is the only way to craft added value. Making strategic adjustments and optimizations to achieve better results.
