Luca Curci – When you decide to be a designer and why?

Gianluca Tamburini – I started my project in 2010. I was not born as a designer, I studied economics and marketing and I worked in the pressoffice of wellknown florentine fashion company. The main reason why I started my new career I felt it was time for me to express my vision and broaden my skills.
