Studio Ludovico was founded with the conviction that the word of nature and the world of design must unite to form a common language.
In every project, Alves Ludovico is interested in transforming objects into a narrative stimulus by working intensively on the form and function. He likes to play with all the areas of design from jewelry to everyday objects and from interior design to pragmatic sculptures. Instead of understanding the boundaries between these areas as imitations, he sees them as an innovative sphere to create immersive narratives.
An object has to be able to establish communication. “The power of design is that it can come to people’s homes and in public places and be there to give inputs,
therefore I like to create unique pieces that allow people to get emotional links with”.
