Edoardo Basilissi

About

I'm Edoardo Basilissi, an automotive designer driven by creativity, functionality, and emotion. With a background in Stylist Engineering from ISSAM and hands-on experience at Iato Motors, I've worked on projects that bridge innovation and real world usability from brand definition to 3D modelling. During Iato Motors' rebranding, I helped shape the new identity of the company, aligning design and fuction across both exterior and interior projects. My work blends digital sketching, rendering and 3D modelling with a strong sense of storytelling and visual coherence. Cars have fascinated me since childhood, since my father gave me as a present a little model of a supercar. I started sketching them and that passion evolved into a clear mission: become a car designer.
