Guests.

This path is for you if you’re carrying an idea, a curiosity, or a creative ambition that hasn’t quite found its form. You’re interested in exploring what it could become, experimenting with new possibilities, and discovering your own way of bringing it into the world.

This path is not for you if you’re looking for a step-by-step business formula, marketing strategies, or a prescribed roadmap to success.

Host.

Bella Betiato is a Brazilian creative director and artist based in Los Angeles.

She has spent close to two decades building brands, developing identities and helping people turn ideas into things that can exist in the world.

Bella started Studiolo as a way of sharing the less measurable parts of making things: instinct, identity, selfhood, meaning, perception, symbolism, desire and taste.
