Ștefan Niță
I graduated Master degree, for the National University of Arts Bucharest, Faculty of Decorative Arts and Design, Romania where I focused on social and ecological interaction problems.
I believe that every problem can be approached from different angles, leading to a wide range of outcomes. These outcomes can take the form of physical objects, services, digital applications, or graphical displays. Each branch is interconnected and can inspire one another. I am an advocate for social design, driven by a genuine interest in addressing real-life problems and exploring human interactions in both digital and physical environments.
Design can make a positive difference in people’s lives, whether it’s through the thoughtful design of everyday objects, informative graphics, or providing design services that empower businesses to contribute to the well-being of others through their expertise and kindness.
