Barbara Mandiola

I'm a dedicated Designer with a Bachelor of Design (Honours) in Environmental and Product Design.

Over nine years, I've explored diverse design roles in New Zealand and Chile, delving into projects involving exhibition stands, displays, signage, and interior spaces, as well as furniture design both indoors and outdoors. Additionally, I've gained valuable insight into steel manufacturing, furthering my interest in the process of transforming design concepts into commercial-scale products.

Working closely with factory teams has given me a profound understanding of a wide range of manufacturing techniques. My experience in client and project management within small-sized family businesses involved overseeing manufacturing, assembly, and installation processes, making informed decisions on-site and collaborating effectively with stakeholders.
