Pierluigi Dalla Rosa — Co-Founder
I bring together a unique blend of artistic vision, leadership, and technical expertise to create forward-thinking products and experiences. I help shape visions and products, prototyping as a practice that brings concepts from zero to one. With more than 15 years in the industry both in-house and in consulting roles, I've led multidisciplinary teams and collaborated with companies such as Apple, NIO, Panasonic, Philips, and Humane, driving innovation and shaping the future of digital technologies. I've explored novel interfaces using emerging technologies as a design material, translating strategic vision into tangible prototypes and shipped products. My craft as a Hardware Interaction Designer lies at the intersection of bits and atoms, of pixels that control the real world, or pixels that control screens and clouds. I teach at the Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation at UC Berkeley. In the past I've been teaching in different institutions like California College of the Arts, CIID, HyperIsland and Strelka Institute for Architecture and Design; my courses have touched experimental imaging, designing with emerging technologies, physical computing, tangible user interfaces, and interactive spaces. www.pierdr.com
