Pietro M.
Industrial Designer | Product Development, DFM & Manufacturing
I help startups and brands turn product ideas into premium, manufacturable products, from concept and CAD to prototyping, DFM and factory-ready documentation. My approach combines clean, minimal aesthetics with precise technical execution and real manufacturing constraints. I can support the full product development process, from early concept to production, or step in at a specific stage to refine an existing design. Typical deliverables include: Concept development and design direction 3D CAD modeling in Rhino and Fusion 360 DFM and manufacturing optimization Material, CMF and production process selection Prototype development and design iteration Production drawings, STEP/DXF files, exploded views and BOMs Photorealistic KeyShot renderings Supplier handoff and pre-production revisions Based in Milan, Italy, I’ve worked across consumer products, workspace products, lighting, furniture and hardware, supporting startups and established companies from concept through production. I’ve also worked directly with manufacturers and suppliers, so my designs are developed around real materials, tolerances, assembly methods and production constraints. If you have a product idea, an existing CAD model or a design that needs refinement before manufacturing, send me your brief, sketches, CAD files or references and I can help define the best path from concept to production.
