Profile Andrea has enrolled in the Master program in Architecture in Genoa (Italy) in 2007. The core of his MArch thesis - [in]forming form. Generation and mutations of an urban algorithm - developed with Giulio Dini, is the implementation of an algorithmic masterplan and an architectural scenario for the Erzelli Hill, in Genoa. In July 2013 he graduated summa cum laude. Thereafter, in January 2014 he became a Licensed Architect (section A, Italian law). He is a PhD of the Department of Architecture and Design (DAD), in Genoa with the thesis Post-Digital Reflections: Computational, Material and Manufacturing Considerations Challenging the Digital Boundaries. In September 2015 he has joined the Open Thesis Fabrication program at the Institut d'Arquitectura Avançada de Catalunya working with wood and robotic fabrication. During his PhD he published with IGI Global and Springer Italia and took part to several international conferences and workshops, as the 3rd eCAADe Regional Workshop held at the Department of Design of Polytechnic School of Milan, smartgeometry 2016: Hybrid Domains, held at Chalmers University of Technology, in Gothenburg (Sweden) or Advances in Architectural Geometry 2016 at Gramazio&Kohler chair at the ETH in Zürich.
