Background

About Alessandra Modarelli

I'm graduated in Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano in 2006 with a thesis on food. I started a sustainable knitwear brand that used surplus materials from the warehouses of Italian yarn companies, producing limited-edition collections distributed in Italy until 2010. Later, I worked in display design for Marni as a Worldwide Visual Merchandiser Manager for six years. She then became a freelance window and corner display designer for various brands, including Aspesi. I served as Creative Director of Endelea, a B Corp that produces ethically and sustainably in Tanzania, and which recently won the Camera Buyer Award and the Young Designer DHL Award, from 2018 to 2022. I collaborates with Aliita, a Milanese jewelry design project specializing in 9kt gold and precious stones, contributing to product design, set design, and communication. I'm teaching Digital Printing at NABA. Ramiro is my young brand of scarves: Ceramics have become a new, gentle obsession.
