FS kynd — the practice
Independent design research. Simple, kind, human-centred technology.
💚 Design with purpose
Exploring how small, quiet technologies can support people in a more human, gentle way.
📦 From concept to object
Research through sketching, prototyping and experimentation — carried all the way to working products.
🖐 Technology that feels good
Creating subtle, kind and genuinely useful products people want to live with.
About
I sit in the rare middle of a Venn diagram(!): industrial design craft (sketching, surfacing, CMF, rendering), manufacturing reality (injection, rotational moulding, sheet metal, DFM), and embedded technology (Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, KiCad).
By day I design smart waste systems and urban infrastructure at Eco Step Italia — 24+ products carried from concept into production. By night, FS kynd: calm technology, tactile interaction, and objects built to be loved for a long time.
