Hi, I'm Mirko!
I'm a Digital and UX/UI Designer and a tech enthusiast focused on creating functional and user-centered digital products. I work on UX/UI and Product Design, combining strategy, usability and innovation
The spark
Born and raised in a small town in north-eastern Italy, my interest in design and creativity sparked at a young age, when I was playing with LEGO (yes, the interlocking building blocks). In fact, I was always trying to modify and improve the games with my custom elements and ideas, aiming to create something better and functional
My approach
I like to explore the intersection of creativity and functionality in design, working on projects with an open-minded vision and creativity, always trying to interact with different and varied stimuli to develop a broader and more innovative perspective
A full time nerd
In my spare time, I'm a nerd who loves to always dive into new passions. Whether it's a software, a new sports or hobby, I like to spend hours watching tutorials, reading forums and experimenting things trying to master some new skills!
