About me

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing with regard to the position of interior designer. Please

find my CV attached.

I am a graduate in interior and architectural design with a masters in

interior and set design from "La Sapienza" University in Rome.

Over the past five years, I have honed my skills through projects in

Italy involving luxury houses, home units and sets for television and

theatre. I have a developed technical precision through small-scale

architectural designs, as well as broadening my experience with larger

projects including commercial and retail spaces.

I participated in the restructuring of several sports shops in the

city centre of Rome, designing a lighting system which not only met

the client's desires for specific colour rendering and visual appeal,

but also their financial and technical requirements.

Last year I also had the exciting and challenging opportunity to work

on an urban and social redevelopment project in Brazil, contributing

to a project for social housing in Salvador da Bahia's historical

centre. It gave me invaluable experience in working efficiently and

meeting deadlines in a challenging environment which demanded

flexibility and out-of-the-box thinking as well as determination and

tenacity.

Creative and curious, I bring to my work an artistic temperament and a

passion for ceramics. I have a wide knowledge of colours, lighting,

fabrics and textiles and have experience getting the most in terms of

comfort and use out of challenging spaces.

I also have advanced knowledge of Auto CAD, Photoshop, Lightwave,

Microsoft Office and other graphics communication programs.

I am an inquisitive person, open to dialogue and experienced in team

work. I am attracted to the challenges and opportunities working for

your team would present, and believe I can offer innovative

ideas, energy and an Italian quality of workmanship in return.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

Maria Bertini
