A modern ode to ancient sounds Inspired by the ancient instrument Chalcophone I have designed an acoustic sound tool. What makes the Chalcophone unique is that no similar instrument has existed since Classical Antiquity. I decided that this object deserved a renaissance. Through sound and form experiments performed alongside the study of music archaeology, a final design proposal was developed. Th

A portable infrared radiator designed as an interior object Cálido is a portable infrared radiator designed to exist at the intersection of function and craft. The name derives from the Latin calidus, meaning warm, not just physically, but in atmosphere and feeling. That duality defines the project. The steel frame is bent, welded and powder coated. The ceramic tiles are slip cast, glazed and fire

A speculative design of the current ceramics industry. This is a speculative design project on the current ceramic production industrial system.In this design, the envisioned future scenario is that, for various reasons, ceramics have become extremely expensive, unaffordable for ordinary people. Fragments of ceramics from hundreds of years ago have become valuable items, and in the future, people

From local produce to dining table utensils The region of Istria, a renowned touristic destination, is often depicted through superficial and non-functional souvenirs, designed and mass-produced far from the place they claim to represent. To challenge and contrast this situation, “in tola!” was developed. It is a collection of utensils for shared dining moments: picks inspired by olive leaves, spr
