Welcome to my creative space!

Hey! I’m Alessia, founder and lead designer at LD Studio. I’m a senior designer with nearly a decade of experience helping lifestyle, wellness, and D2C brands find their clarity and confidence through purposeful and uncomplicated design.

Built from curiosity, clarity, and a passion for meaningful design

My journey started long before 2015, but that’s when I officially stepped into the design world after studying Graphic Design at the Fine Arts Academy in Rimini. Since then, I’ve worked across industries and formats, from branding and packaging to websites and printed pieces that people actually want to hold onto.

In 2020, I chose to freelance full-time, giving myself the freedom to listen deeply, grow authentically, and create work that’s honest, both to me and to the brands I collaborate with.

This studio is for those ready to carve out their own lane, refining what exists or building your dream from scratch. You won’t find a cookie-cutter process here. Instead, a thoughtful journey tailored to you, with design that feels clear, confident, and deeply aligned with your values.

The result of clarity: a studio built not just on skills, but on self-trust.

Get to know me...a little too well!

Uuh, almost forgot...

When I’m not deep in design work, my assistant—my cat—is usually nearby. He’s an expert in supervising quality (mostly by sitting on the keyboard) and making sure nothing stays on the desk for too long. Think of him as the unofficial Head of Distractions and moral support.

Brittini, Founder, BPE

Girl you KILLED it!! It was such a joy to work with you and you truly made BPE come to life in ways I never even imagined.
Sarah, Founder

Alessia absolutely nailed it from the very first branding iteration. She captured the essence of my vision in such a subtle, artistic, and thoughtful way—it felt like she read my mind. The process was smooth, professional, and genuinely collaborative. I felt heard and supported every step of the way, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.
