Lifelong learner, architect by education and technology tinkerer by passion.

I found extremely interesting the overlap of aesthetic research, high technology components and performance related issues.

I have completed my Master of Science in Architecture of building at the Politecnico di Milano, a course focusing on the integration between the disciplines that contribute to building science, with a Thesis that investigates the use of dynamic sun shading system combined with facade integrated photovoltaics. 

The experience in this project taught me to connect the different scales of the building but also the different disciplines as it was asked to analyze the building from structural, technological and services point of view. It was crucial then to have a platform where to exchange all the information so the entire work was done in Revit to ensure the interoperability of the model.

I think that having computational tools, as BIM softwares or parametric modeling (grasshopper, dynamo)  to analyze and quantify data on building performance and geometries in the early stages of design and translate them in technical details can produce the highest quality in architecture. I have further developed my research through workshops and during my two years of experience working in offices.

I have worked for the last two years at GMP Architekten, an architecture and engineering firm in Berlin, focusing on their main expertise, stadium design.
