Laura Doreth de Jong is a Dutch Art Director based in Milan, Italy. Bridging two cultures has significantly shaped her creative journey. Growing up in the Netherlands instilled in her a love for minimalism, punctuality, and cultural curiosity, while life in Italy awakened a deep appreciation for beauty, craftsmanship, and emotional expression. This unique blend of contrasting values continuously informs her creative approach.
Her perspective was further shaped during her studies at Domus Academy, where she was immersed in a dynamic, international environment that encouraged experimentation and collaboration. The transition from working independently to creating within teams taught her the value of diverse perspectives and the strength that comes from collective creativity. That experience left a lasting impression and continues to fuel her passion for working with multicultural teams.
