Chi siamo | Liuteria Nova

High craftsmanship and technological innovation
meet at Liuteria Nova

We specialize in the 3D digitization of string and wind musical instruments through photogrammetry, thanks to our experience as luthiers in the restoration and construction of bowed and plucked instruments.

Ours is the first innovative start-up with the ambition of creating a new and unique all-encompassing lutherie studio, becoming a point of reference for diagnostics through photogrammetric survey. Our goal is to define the new standard for the acquisition of metric data of string and wind musical instruments.

We guarantee care and attention for the instrument within a hi-tech context, thanks to our training linked to the tradition and cultural heritage of musical instrument making.
Global expertise from our international advisors enhances the accuracy, fidelity, and cultural depth of every digital model we produce.

How we create digital twins

No need to transportation

We've designed a capture system and developed a technique that lets us safely and accurately scan instruments without moving them from their storage location.

Accuracy

We use photogrammetry to create our photorealistic and dimensionally accurate 3D models. This technique avoids interference from paint reflectivity and is more cost-effective than models obtained with tomography or other methods.

Customization

Our models are highly customizable and can be reproduced via CNC, providing essential support for luthiers in their handcrafted instrument production.

Luthier Expertise, Dedicated to Musical Instruments

Mattia Cavazzana | Co-founder

Plucked string instrument Maker and Restorer.

Born in 1989, he graduated in 2016 from the Civica Scuola di Liuteria di Milano. His thesis, "The Cornetto of the Accademia Filarmonica di Bologna," was supervised by Maestro Claudio Canevari, with whom he continues to collaborate on research and surveys in museum settings.

From 2017 to 2018, he interned at the workshop of Master Luthier Aldo Illotta in Borgosesia, assisting with the construction of custom acoustic and classical guitars.
In 2019, he carried out the survey of the Ventura Linarol Viola da Gamba (1585), owned by the Museo Nazionale degli Strumenti Musicali in Rome and restored by Master Luthier Pierre Bohr.

Since 2017, he is Technical Director and Production Manager for the NovaraJazz Festival.

Emanuele Bedini | Co-founder

Violin Maker and Restorer.

Born in 1988, he graduated in 2016 from the Civica Scuola di Liuteria di Milano with a thesis on "Industrial Computed Tomography – Applications in Lutherie and the Conservation of Musical Instruments."

In 2017, he moved to Mainz for three years to work at the workshop of Master Luthier Peter Körner, where he specialized in the restoration of antique Italian and European instruments.

Since 2020, he teaches "Photographic Survey, Drawing, and Design of Bowed String Instruments" and "Complementary Restoration" at the Civica Scuola di Liuteria di Milano.
