The closed entrance to 'Rotti', a designer shop in Pesaro.

Hello all! I have been at Marco Morosini's Studio for a week now, and I'm just enjoying my first weekend here. It has been pretty tiring because the days are long because Italians like to have looong lunches so I don't finish until quite late in the evening. But other than that it has been really good so far.

Other than Marco himself, there are only 3 others in the studio: a graphic designer, a web designer, and another lady. They all work very hard as there is a lot to do, so I've been helping on all sorts of things. We've been finishing off an ice-cream recipe book, which involved some tweaking of indesign layouts, a bit of Italian to English translation and cleaning up some photographs. Also I worked on some developmental ideas for a Makeup stand. They are a regular client and wanted some new graphics for a new range of makeup. Also I am starting to work on developing a new design for a t-shirt range for Marco's own brand, Brandina The Orginial.

As I said before I am living in the annex of the studio which is great, but it's a little odd only walking three paces to work! So I am looking for a room somewhere, with not much luck so far, but hopefully something good will come up next week. See you all for now! Ciao!
