The view from my apartment; the main piazza of Pesaro.

I have now moved out my temporary room that was in the studio, and am living in an apartment in the centre of Pesaro. It's kind of a studio flat, because I have my own kitchenette in my bedroom, but I share a bathroom and living room with three others. It's in the second oldest building in Pesaro, and I have an amazing view out of my window!



Now I'm settled it's finally sunk in where I am and what I am doing! But in a good way, it's great so far! The studio have given me a bicycle and I am cycling everyday to work which will be good for my fitness! Although today it has heavily snowing all day, so cycling may not be so pleasurable anymore. I honestly can't believe the weather, it is warmer in the UK! Hopefully it'll get a little warmer in the coming months. Oh and today my designs for 5 t-shirts went to the printers, and some designs for a new bag went off to the client. I will post more about my experiences at the studio later this week, when I have sorted out my internet!
Ciao tutti!

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!

My desk at Marco Morosini Studio after week one.

It's been a while since I posted something here, but I've been busy sorting myself out for Italy. I am here now temporarily living in the annex of Marco Morosini's Studio. It's really nice and am excited to start working tomorrow. My Italian is coming along slowly, but still having to say "Pu ò ripetere per favore" every now and then. I just cycled over to the supermarket and bought some amazing stuff! Italian food is so delicious! I will post again next week when I've started working and properly settled in. Ciao!
