Nicola Armellini is a designer from Italy who constantly crosses the boundary between technology and communication.

First approaching the industry through the video game medium, he partnered with Yari D'Areglia and founded Jumpzero, specializing in the user experience and interface design of OS X and iOS applications. At the same time, Nicola helped grow the audience of Yari's Think & Build blog by editing and reviewing his in-depth tutorial articles.

A fan of redistributing knowledge and making it accessible, he taught his craft and its implications in terms of marketing and communication as a lecturer at European Institute of Design in Milan.

As a side project slowly turned into his main focus, Nicola started fiddling with virtual reality and exploring new ways of interacting with machines and CG environments, questioning the status quo of how information is presented and manipulated.

He now studies to become an aerospace engineer and can be found at nicolaarmellini.com.
