Living and working in Shenzhen

Shekou’s coastal beauty, its refreshing sea breezes, and vibrant design community have made Shenzhen a beloved home. The sea connects me to my Italian roots and offers me a sanctuary to relax and recharge.

What I especially appreciate about Shenzhen is its energy, its close proximity to manufacturing hubs, and the collaborative environment among local and international designers. Here, we share ideas and experiences, learning from our diverse backgrounds.

TROVI functions as a bridge between East and West. We not only assist Western clients with product development and manufacturing in China but also guide Chinese brands through the complexities of design and production.

One memorable collaboration was with OnePlus, a leading mobile phone brand. Working across cultures was exciting — a true exchange of ideas and expertise.
