Transforming data into meaningful stories

I’m Tiziana Alocci – an Italian award-winning information designer and lecturer based in London. I have worked commercially for over a decade as an information designer, collaborating with creative studios, brands, and organisations worldwide. In this capacity, my scope of work spans from interactive data experiences to printed editorial data visualisations, with clients including the BBC, the British Library, Corriere della Sera, Wired UK, and the Open Data Institute (ODI).

In 2017, I co-founded Market Cafe Magazine, the world’s first independent zine chronicling the progression of data visualisation practice globally. The publication, which is sold in over 20 independent bookstores globally, has featured some of the world’s leading figures in data and information design and in 2017 was recognised at the Kantar ‘Information Is Beautiful’ Awards with a Gold Award. This editorial work partners an established career in public speaking and lecturing. I have been an Associate Lecturer at the University of the Arts London since 2018, amongst other international guest lecturing posts at Ravensbourne University London (UK), Chelsea College of Arts (UK), Hyper Island (Sweden), Winchester School of Art (UK), Data Ninja School (Italy), Università di Bologna (Italy), ArtEZ University of the Arts (The Netherlands), and speak regularly at prominent information design industry events internationally.

Born and raised between the sea and the “vicoli” of Genoa, I live and work in East London where I run my studio playing with pixels, data, and electronic music, regularly falling in love with new forms of art.
