About Me
Mattia is a visual designer and digital artist from the Marche region, now based in Rome. His practice brings together graphic design, creative coding, and brand strategy to turn complex ideas into clear, distinctive visual systems across print and digital media. Rather than following a fixed style, he chooses the visual language that best serves each project, moving from precise minimalism to a more tactile, brutalist approach. Typography is central to his work. He treats letterforms as spatial, physical, and kinetic structures, using type to give form and rhythm to abstract ideas. Code and visual programming tools such as TouchDesigner extend this research. They are part of the design process itself, helping him create generative systems, reactive environments, and visual identities that can change over time.
