During her visit at Design Studio, Nacif gained valuable insights into the company’s cutting-edge marketing strategies and creative processes. The company’s leaders provided a comprehensive overview of their portfolio, research methodologies and design procedures, offering an exclusive behind-the-scenes glimpse into their daily operations.
