“Where there is nothing there is pure harmony. If I'm going to fill that space with anything I will do my best to do it with respect and a conscience for it to be something that makes a difference, and that may add a certain - hopefully cultural- value to the public."
Federico's clients include artists, television channels, hotels, historic buildings and soccer teams, among others. He has been honored with several awards and a title of excellence from the City of New York, as part of the Lucy G. Moses Award, for his role as a graphic designer and artist at the restoration of
the iconic Williamsburgh Savings Bank building, currently the unique events venue named Weylin.
His work has been published in
magazines, newspapers and books such as IDN
Magazine, Logo Lounge Master Series, The New
York Times and Graphic Space from the Hong Kong
based design books publisher Art Power; among others.
A background in drawing and the interest for the arts in general, as well as the love of music and traveling, gives him a very personal connection
and understanding of the unique projects he finds
himself involved in. Federico lives and works part time in New York City and Buenos Aires; and he’s
looking forward to keep developing his career in the constant search of professional and personal experiences.
