Hey, I'm Giacomo.
I am an Information Designer and fermentation enthusiast based between
BerlinDE and BolognaIT.
Mainly, I am interested in exploring the intersection of technology, journalism, and culture, where I work on both commissioned and autonomous research projects. I also teach from time to time.
From design to programming, I explore the web with a focus on information structure and visualisation. My practice ranges between building web interfaces, designing tools and prototyping.
I co-founded Krisenstab, and I am currently building Vantage, while working at Airwars and metaLAB.

From design to programming, I explore the web with a focus on information structure and visualisation. My practice ranges between building web interfaces, designing tools and prototyping.
Now, I am building Vantage, while being a project lead at Airwars, and a researcher at metaLAB. I am also a member of Froh!, and occasionally teach at Weißensee Kunsthochschule.
Since 2017 I collaborate with museums, universities and NGOs.
In 2019 I graduated from the Master’s program at the Design Academy EindhovenNL majoring in Information Design.
I’m always passionate about participating in not-for-profit activities that support environmental and social justice, storytelling, and journalism. Also, I am a strong advocate for open-source and open-access methodologies.
My work has been exhibited in different venues including: Het Nieuwe InstituutNL, Van AbbemuseumNL, Bureau EuropaNL, ADI Design MuseumIT, HKDI GalleryHK, Le Gallerie TrentoIT, Zentrum für Kunst und UrbanistikDE, and has been featured on: Global Investigative Journalism Network∿, ADI Design Index∿, Slanted∿, LINK.
