Adrian (P.IVA 05562370261) is an Australian-born communication designer and educator working between Conegliano, Italy and Melbourne, Australia.
For over a decade, his practice has spanned brand identity, creative direction, and communication design across print, digital, experience and objects. His approach draws from an informed understanding of art and design history, paired with rich narratives, visual storytelling, and using a blend of traditional methods and contemporary tools. His work has included projects across hospitality, cultural institutions, sport, architecture, agriculture, tourism, retail, lifestyle, and government sectors in Australia, Southeast Asia and Europe.
Alongside his creative practice, Adrian was the co-founder and creative partner at Australian cycling collective Soup Athletica from 2013–2023. From 2021–2025 he was the Senior Designer at the Scott Pickett Group, and publishes 1Pax, a newsletter centred on design, hospitality, food and connection.
Since 2019 he has been a lecturer within the Bachelor of Communication Design at RMIT University Melbourne. He has also lectured in the Masters of Architecture program at University of Melbourne, and in Graphic Design at Accademia di Belle Arte Tiepolo in Udine. He has held courses on speculative design, placemaking, information design, imagemaking, and communication design methods, and was awarded the RMIT School of Design Teaching Award in 2022.
