I turn the sea into inspiration, and inspiration into design
Marco Bonfiglio
Growing up in a seaside town, I developed a deep passion for boats and the nautical world.
Constantly seeking new ideas, solutions, and inspiration, I spent my childhood sketching boats everywhere and every time I had the chance.
My studies in Architecture sharpened my sensitivity to beauty, proportions, and elegance, which I later refined and deepened through my Transportation Design studies at IED Barcelona.
Design approach
My approach to design combines architectural discipline, aesthetic clarity, and practical awareness. With a background in Architecture and Transportation Design, I focus on proportion, balance, and surface coherence, ensuring that each concept is both visually compelling and structurally grounded.
Design is a process of research and synthesis, where heritage, context, and technical constraints inform contemporary solutions. I develop ideas through freehand and digital sketching, refining them with 3D modeling and rendering to maintain consistency between concept, form, and presentation. Professional experience in a shipyard environment strengthened my ability to collaborate effectively between design and technical teams.
I work with a structured and reliable mindset, valuing clarity, precision, and teamwork. For me, strong design emerges from the balance between creativity, technical skill, and thoughtful execution.
