Hey, I'm Giacomo.
I am an Information Designer and fermentation enthusiast based between Berlin^DE and Bologna^IT.

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.

Occasionally, I teach at Weißensee Kunsthochschule.

Feel free to leave a drawing, write to me digitally print me a message or follow my feed.

You can also browse a selection of projects.

My work has been exhibited at: Het Nieuwe Instituut^NL, Van Abbemuseum^NL, Bureau Europa^NL, ADI Design Museum^IT, HKDI Gallery^HK, Le Gallerie Trento^IT, Zentrum für Kunst und Urbanistik^DE, and featured on: GIJN^∿, ADI Design Index^∿, Slanted^∿, LINK^∿, and e-flux^∿.

I selected all plenary sitting reports of the European Parliament from the past 22 years in which the term “refugee crisis” appears. I then wrote a code to highlight in blue the identified subjects of the crisis and in yellow the political actions that the EU claims to pursue — such as stronger integration — even though, in practice, these goals have remained largely rhetorical, revealing Europe’s limited commitment to genuine social and cultural integration.
