Top SchoolAndrea Benedetti is a UX/UI designer and researcher with nine years of experience crafting web experiences for public institutions and universities, currently working at Università degli Studi di Milano. With a PhD in Design from Politecnico di Milano, he blends data visualization, creative coding and interface design to shape how users perceive the production of data. His academic work introduced "friction" as a design metaphor to increase awareness of data generation in digital interfaces, a perspective that informs practical projects and teaching roles. Andrea has transitioned from post‑doc research at DensityDesign to applied design in public sector contexts, while also lecturing on data and service design. Based in Milan, he brings a rare mix of rigorous research methods and hands‑on visual communication practice to complex, civic-facing digital products.
