(*1989) holds a BA in Visual Communication from SUPSI/University of Applied Sciences and Art of Southern Switzerland (2016), and a MA in Type Design from ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne (2019). His BA project on Xanti Schawinsky’s work at Milan-based Studio Boggeri in the 1930s yielded a typeface, which in 2019 was released under the name Xants as part of Adobe’s ‘Hidden Treasures of Bauhaus’.

Luca joined Lineto as a full-time type designer in 2019. Over the course of several years, and in consultation with Christian Mengelt, Luca was the lead designer for the encompassing expansion of the LL Unica77 super family. He added the LL Unica77 Condensed and Narrow families, a variable and a Mono version, as well as the rounded typeface LL Unisoft77. All of these are lined up for a release later in 2026.

Luca also contributed to LL Atomgrad (2021), a formal redevelopment of the 1998 FF Chernobyl stencil font by Stephan Müller. He was involved in the refinement of Cornel Windlin’s typographic ready-made from 2000, LL Plot (2021); and he executed the re-set of Nico Schweizer’s 1998 ‘worm font’ LL Rephlex (2021). Luca has continued to serve as an occasional mentor for type design projects at SUPSI in Mendrisio.
