Ciao
I’m Gabriele De Luca, a product designer.
For me, my work is more than just a profession: it’s a way to make life a little simpler and more functional. I’m driven by a passion for finding creative solutions to everyday problems. If you take a look at my portfolio, you’ll see that my approach is practical and human-centred: every object is created to be useful first, and beautiful second.
After graduating in Industrial Design from the L. Vanvitelli Faculty of Architecture in Aversa, I completed a Master’s in Product Design at the Italian Design Institute in Milan. I lived there for a time, learning not only from the course but also from the city’s vibrant energy, which enriched me as both a designer and a person.
I’ve been fortunate to grow professionally through personal projects, inspiring collaborations, and design competitions, experimenting with techniques such as CAD, 3D printing, laser cutting, rendering, and VR visualisation. Now I’m back in Naples, my hometown, but each project brings me a piece of the world, and I’m curious to see where the next ones will take me.
I firmly believe that each project is a challenge, and every challenge is worth taking on if it adds value to people’s lives. If my work can make even a small improvement, then I know I’ve achieved my goal.
Let’s keep in touch; I’m always excited to explore new collaborations:
