Marzia
Ricci

Born in 1988 and raised in Asti, Marzia became a designer through a multidiciplinar path of discovery which involved studies in mechanical engeneering, science of materials, economics, art, graphic and product design, weaving, ecc. .

She has always been interested in cultures and design expressions. She developed an interest in handcraft know how from a young age, but it’s her R&D mindset that allowed her to explore multiple fields of work, which intersect into a set of experiences and skills most valuable to design for the change.
