About 

I'm a creative person with a design philosophy that focuses on creativity, innovation and sustainability. 

I have a predisposition to manual and technical drawings, graphics and arts. I'm excellent at working indipendently and in team to achieve a certain objective on time and with excellence. 
Great team spirit, good adaptability and organization.

Through my work experiences, I am experienced with building materials and construction technology, sustainability techniques, site investigation, analysis and supervising projects.
I also have a strong experience in the graphical representation of projects and construction document preparation. I have extensive experience with a broad range of design and management software including AutoCAD, Sketchup, Revit, Vray and Adobe Suite.

I am an hard worker, honest and ambitious person, that one who really want to be involved in all phases of an architectural project, because I want to do my best in my field. 
I was born and raised in Italy, and there, I've had the opportunity to learn and understand the building systems, working for over 15 years with my parents and relatives in the construction industry; I've always combined this with my studies in architecture and design, and especially all my love and passion for creativity, what better cocktail for an architect aimed to make a good project, by understanding the constructive evolution! I can design, but I also know to use the hammer!
I want always make sure my work is complete and accurate, an eye for details, for the little things that matter in the big picture! 

I believe that great design nurtures the human condition through the balance and harmony of form, function, sustainability and context. With my process design I want put these elements together to create design excellence!
