Chi sono
SpazioConico, studio di design a Rimini
My name is Niccolò Raimondi and I'm originally from Adria, a small town in the Veneto region.
SpazioConico is my design studio in Rimini, where I moved in 2025. It's a creative and productive business that I've shaped over the years by bringing together experiences from various disciplines.
“Conico” is an anagram of Nicco (with an extra O), an abbreviation of my name that many people use.
But a "conical space" is also a concept shared by all the fields I work in. A conical space could be virtual or real, tangible or intangible:
– The conical tip of a pencil for drawing a project
– The extrusion nozzle of a 3D printer
– A cutter that removes material from a surface
– A cone of light entering the camera lens
– The needle of a record player or the speaker cones of loudspeakers (yes, there's a place for music too)
In SpazioConico you can find all of this: I call it a “high creativity zone”.
What can you ask SpazioConico?
- 3D printing for private projects, model making and architecture
- How? Both with resin and FDM technology. If you have a file ready for printing and you're not satisfied with just viewing it on a computer screen, you're in the right place. If you're an architect or a model maker and need to get your hands on that project you've had in mind for a long time but don't know how to realize, at SpazioConico I'll make it a reality.
- Design objects
- "What if I wanted to combine 3D printing with wood or other materials?" It's possible! SpazioConico brings your design project to life with 3D printing, wood, and other materials.
- Photography
- At SpazioConico, I also work on small photography projects. If you have one in mind or want to collaborate, let's discuss it and see if it's possible!
In parallel //
SpazioConico is a creative lab that also gives rise to many collateral activities that relate to personal passions and research.
Polesine Fantasma
“Polesine Fantasma” is a collaborative photography and video project, created to bring attention to disused and/or disappeared buildings and public spaces throughout the Polésine (the portion of Veneto enclosed between the Adige and Po rivers, corresponding almost entirely to the province of Rovigo).
It is a sort of digital photographic archive, concerning structures or areas that have "made the history" of these places (or at least are a source of memories, of collective memories) thanks to their architecture or the activities that took place within them.
However, the aim is also to emphasize the fact that many of them are still fully recoverable with a view to major urban regeneration projects.
ElectroMill
ElectroMill is an observatory on electronic music, born from my strong passion for this musical genre. I enjoy studying its history, social developments, and the influences it has had over the decades.
It's a constant search, a trip, a journey. The name literally means "electronic mill." I coined this term because, like water moving the blades of a mill, this project ideally brings back to the surface underrated electronic tracks, virtually unknown tracks on vinyl B-sides, and forgotten melodies.
RaiModels
RaiModels is my modeling business for railways and automobiles. For production, I use 3D printing and manual assembly techniques.
Certificates, awards and recognitions
2025
Acquisition of the A1/A3 “Open” certificate for piloting drones weighing 250g or more.
2024
Finalist among the photos selected for the press of “Atlas of ruins”, paper publication resulting from the same international photography competition announced by “Reuse Italy”.
2012
Positioned among the 10 best Italian projects for the international design competition “James Dyson Award” thanks to the “Clip it” concept, a device that allows you to grasp the electrical socket without directly touching the casing, thus avoiding possible contact with metal plugs in case of wet or sweaty hands.
2011
Award ceremony, together with other students enrolled in my faculty, with the “Targa Giovani ADI“ (Association for Industrial Design) for the production of the videos "The Constitution Comes to Life," dedicated to the Italian Republic Day. The award was then included in a paper publication published annually by ADI.
2010
Placement among the top 10 selected internationally in the “Industrial design” category of the competition “Utilità manifesta – Fight poverty” (sponsored among others by ADI e RAI), thanks to the “ElasticaMente” project, a “musical instrument” made with sustainable materials at very low cost.
