A course by Lia Lovisolo
Lia Lovisolo is an interior designer and the founder of LIADESIGN, an interior design studio specialized in design projects using photorealistic rendering.
Although she earned a degree in architecture from the Polytechnic University of Milan, she realized she wanted to pursue a career in interior design after renovating her own home in 2012. She then specialized in photorealistic rendering and began to incorporate it into her work, which quickly caught the eye of new clients and led to an increasing number of projects.
Today, she primarily oversees interior design projects in the private residential sector, providing expertise in more of a consultancy role.
