Carreer span:
Ifm from the French side of Switzerland, born in the Canton of Bern. I spent my early years in Geneva, and then moved North where I went to a Catholic School and then went on to study Industrial Design in Lausanne at the ECAL (University of Art, Lausanne). I have been designing for 10 years now.
I am originally a photolithographer, which has always given me a strong sense of graphic art, but after few years I became disenchanted and was keen to branch into three-dimensional work. This is what brought me to the ECAL in Lausanne .
Current project:
Earrings, gold 18k |

Background story:
"After completing my degree in Industrial Design at ECAL I worked for LVMH and then for Y&R as a designer. After a period of freelance in London, I found myself in Tokyo designing what can be best described as organic, spirted and freshly styled jewelry - www.marijoli.com"
Future dream:
"My dog sitting beside me in my workshop, where I am designing a new collection of jewelry, bikinis and bags for the new concept store that my friends and I just opened in Tokyo and LA."
Favorite artist:
"Jacques Herzog & Pierre de Meuron , Ross Lovegrove, Jackson Pollock and Hideaki Kawashima "
Message:
"Don't give up hope,
don't give up the dream,
no matter how tough,
it sometimes may seem."
