Simone Silvestri is an Italian Art Director currently working at Housemarque. Originally from Rome, he began his career as a freelancer and in independent studios, building a hands-on understanding of digital world creation and visual production.

His move to Finland marked a key step in his career, with his experience at Remedy Entertainment helping him refine the artistic and technical skills required for large-scale game development. At Housemarque, he now works on bringing together strong visual direction and the studio’s arcade-driven gameplay identity.

Alongside his international career, Simone has kept a strong connection with the Italian games industry, also teaching for several years at AIV, Accademia Italiana Videogiochi. He hopes to contribute to the growth of Italy as a stronger hub for global game development.
