This or That – Jacopo Rosati

4 years ago

Jacopo Rosati’s career began in 2006 in Venice, his hometown, at the prestigious Studiocamuffo, where he worked as a graphic designer and illustrator before jumping into the bombastic world of freelancing.
Rosati works mainly for the editorial and advertising market, over the years he has used different techniques to develop his works; from collage to digital software. To further characterize his works he initially chose to use felt, and thanks to this choice in a very short time he managed to carve out an exceptional space among Italian illustrators.

Jacopo Rosati likes to freely experiment with different approaches based on client needs. He has worked for Die Zeit, La Repubblica, Il Sole 24Ore, L’espresso, Eni, Das Magazine, Playboy, Vanity Fair, The Wall Street Journal, The Daily Telegraph, Monocle, The Washington Post, Wired, Pirelli, Campari… need we go on? We could because the list of collaborations is really very long. Among the latest (and of note, not only in size) surely the one with Pink Salt Agency for Fineco for which he completely illustrated the bodies of 9 metro trains in Milan. A real illustrated journey dedicated to the city and its most significant features.
