My experience at the Brazilian Laboratory of Industrial Design (LBDI) was a fundamental stage of learning, training, and reflection in the field of industrial design. For several years, I was part of the team at this legendary LBDI in Florianópolis, in southern Brazil, where I contributed to the direct development of products for the industry. This experience provided me with the invaluable opportunity to collaborate with designers from various parts of the world, enriching my understanding of the field and the discipline of design.

Additionally, I had the privilege of working under the guidance of internationally renowned designers such as Gui Bonsiepe, Eduardo Barroso, Marcelo de Resende†, Célio Teodorico do Santos, Regina Alvares, Federico Hess, and Jorge Gómez Abrams. I also collaborated with hundreds of Latin American and European designers who passed through the Laboratory, many of whom are now part of my professional network. This experience not only expanded my knowledge but also enriched my network of contacts in the field of design.
