Don't dream it do it!Rachele Biancalani
Since I was a little girl, I have always shown a strong talent for drawing and a peculiar, innate interest in furnishing: I remember in fact that whenever it got dark in the evenings and I could see very well into the enlightened rooms of the buildings, I used to peek inside other people’s houses because of my curiosity about how they were furnished.
My favourite amusement was to observe how the same spaces and structures (for example the flats of a condo-building) turned out to be very different one from the other. When I was 15 I started drawing and assembling my first furniture and furnishing projects (actually, I have not quit yet!) and at that age I realized that I would be an architect.
