the Studio
Studio ArCa is a design atelier founded in Lugano in 2019. Its design philosophy brings together technical precision and creative freedom. This is achieved through close collaboration with the people involved in the project and a continuous dialogue between the two design approaches.
The founder’s interdisciplinary educational background, combined with professional experience in both industrial design and architecture, has contributed to developing a broad and cross-disciplinary design vision. Each new project is therefore approached with an analytical and pragmatic mindset, guided by aesthetic sensitivity and attention to detail, yet free from rigid predefined schemes.
The ultimate goal of every project is always to achieve the right balance between form and function, while carefully considering key aspects such as economic, social, and environmental sustainability
of everything we conceive and realize. Client satisfaction always remains at the core of our work.

about me
I am a Swiss interdisciplinary designer whose approach focuses on defining volumes and spaces
as the result of a rigorous synthesis of form, function, and context.
After obtaining a diploma as an architectural draftsman, I continued my studies and earned a Professional Bachelor's degree in Product Design, further specializing in Industrial Design. This
cross-disciplinary path allowed me to develop a continuity of method across different project scales, inspired by the Italian design tradition and grounded in the integration of technical expertise and the culture of the artifact. The same approach drives my work across various fields, from architecture to furniture design and automotive concepts.
In 2019, I founded Studio ArCa, a practice through which I advance my design research from initial idea to realization. Previously, I gained several years of experience at the renowned Studio Camponovo Architetti & Associati SA in Lugano.
