About 

I’m in Love with architecture.

Since I was a child I remember how the spaces affected me in some way that I still sense them. Hall ways of hotels, some plazas, my house, some friends house, shopping malls… Getting to know the art of architecture I know understand these sensations.

Why some spaces are better than others? Why some solutions give us Goosebumps when we first come in or look at them? How can we project these spaces?

Lightning, highness, colors, collective space, a bench, a stairs, ramps, right openings, complex program, structure solutions…  

I seek these solutions and these sensations in each space that I have to create and develop. Try to understand the every human needs is sometimes hard as the time changes and you have many cultures and costumes mixed even more in the global world.

I think now more than ever, we as architects have to duty to evolve our thoughts about the world we are living and be questioning our needs and our solutions to new problems and old ones.

I see the work of the OMA office as a speculative Office that seeks these questioning and understandings of these issues. That’s why I have a desire to work, learn and contribute with yours work.

I have double citizenship. I’m Brazilian, born in Ribeirão Preto and living in Sao Paulo, and also have a Italian citizenship, what allows me to work and live in Europe.
