About Paolo

With over 20 years of experience in the luxury and international retail sectors, I support brands in creating strong customer experiences through visual merchandising, space design, and brand identity.

I have developed and managed visual strategies for prestigious houses such as Chanel, Gucci, Lanvin, and Eres, both in France and internationally (Europe, USA, Asia, Middle East).

My strength lies in my ability to combine creative vision, aesthetic excellence, and commercial performance, in order to transform each point of sale into a true lever for image and desirability.

From conception to execution, I bring a tailor-made, elegant, and results-oriented approach.
