Architecture & Planning
The technical-scientific paradigm of our time sees the space as a field to conquer and devises more fragmented, abstract and informal places. The progressive physical and metaphysical separation of the man from its place of origin synthesizes in few words the diagnose of the deteriorated relationship between man and its habitat. The goal and the expectation is first of all to regain consciousness and awareness of places.
Models
The type of work spans from large-scale landscape models to architectural models for presentations and competitions, to furniture and design study models. In over fifteen years of craftsmanship activity, the studio has developed and perfected various techniques such as plaster models made with disposable formwork, territorial models with contour lines or triangulation, hardwood models, and up to complex artistic techniques.
Art & Design
Prototypes or object series are developed in collaboration with other artists and designers. The projects/objects have been published in renowned magazines such as Vogue Uomo, or displayed at exhibitions and events including the Salone del Mobile in Milan.
Research
Architect with a PhD in Architectural Composition from the IUAV University of Venice. Visiting Professor at the Faculty of architecture of the University of Parma in Design and Planning Workshops. Teaches Modelling at the IED European Institute of Design in Venice.
