Illustration for the NYTimes about the headwinds traditional bed-and-breakfast inns have been facing in the last decades. Small lodging operators are doubling down on unique décor, personalized service and flexible policies, as they seek to distinguish themselves from vacation rentals. Article by Elaine Glusac. Thanks to AD Minh Uong!     The wallpaper I made for the brand new Hera Group Top Customer Service Point in Forlì aims to portray the sense of community of this city. The buildings and monuments of the main square Piazza Saffi provide a background for the people who make Forlì a vibrant and welcoming place every day. Hera is a multi-utility company operating in the distribution of gas, water, energy, and waste disposal in northern Italy. The colors of the illustration recall Hera's historic logo designed by Bob Noorda in 2002: magenta for energy, blue for water and green for the environment. The wallpaper is part of a broader project designed and developed by the architecture firm SpazioSP Studio Associato in collaboration with the creative studio Arte Vetrina Project. Photo and Video credit: Matteo Mammato.      Illustration for The New York Times about how much of our data is out there for the taking, and how this could damage us. After the "Panama Playlists" issue - the prank website that compiled and publicized the publicly available Spotify listening habits of prominent figures like politicians and tech executives - the article reflects on how big companies use social features that aren't widely recognized to show more of ourselves online in service of continued engagement.

Illustration for Mezza Riga, literary newsletter about tennis. A clay tennis court is constructed with multiple layers which requires constant maintenance - just like the game of clay-court players, who have to build over time a relationship with this unpredictable surface, overcoming many obstacles.

Two illustrations for Emory Magazine about how Emory's team of researchers helps patients find solutions to their problems getting quality slumber. Thanks to AD Elizabeth Hautau!    Last week I was in Milan at the opening of SEMINA 2024. Ten artworks of mine have been beautifully reinterpreted as flower carpets by the Associazione Maestri Infioratori di Noto, and I also made a live painting performance at the Moschino store, main partner of the event. Here’s an extract of what I did. Unlike the rest of Italy, Milan has been quite rainy in this early summer, so I tried to bring some colors there! Thanks Alessandra Grillo, Beyond The Line Agency and Hines for having me involved in this beautiful project.  |
