ABOUT ME
DIGITAL SKILLS
I studied to be an architect and my goal is to put into practice what I’ve learned by constantly improving it. But there are are so many aspects around the profession that fascinate me without actually building… from architecture literature, movies, graphics and obviously architecture travel. I think the architect expresses a thinking on the move: that’s why I travel as much as I can and wherever I go I capture the world, I register the sensations and I reprocess them in my projects. So put together architecture, design, traveling, creativity, curiosity, an insane endless research of beauty and new amazing projects to develop, and you find me.

Valmiera Museum, Valmiera, Latvia
Individual work / Intership (EURES) / 2017 / Territory valorisation
Valmiera is a latvian city which characterized by both a natural and environmental heritage and a cultural and historical one. The analysis is about new possibilities for the use of Valmiera territory and to make more comfortable and attractive the tour for those who come to visit the museum. The proposal is, first of all, a lighting project as a masterplan. The main idea is to create a path of sculptures that light up at night that guides the visitors from the bus station to the museum and this concept seems to fit well with Valmiera tradition because the city already owns several statues and artistic installations. The museum territory has a particular structure made of different buildings: as a matter of fact the ensemble on Bruninieku Street is a national archeological monument known as Valmiera Old Town and it must be preserved in its features. However, the area presents some weaknesses such as the fact that at the entrance the visitor doesn’t have a clear idea of what there is and where he can go. The project aims to give a new design to the garden entrance with some street furniture (that could be removed if necessary) and it proposes a more guided visit tour with the restoration of the wood building (used as a storage) as a ticket office/info point.
In 2017 Valmiera municipality is planning to start a project about the restauration of old town castle ruins: there is an existing project about a new glass building that will be built over the ruins. It will attract new people and it will be used as a new exhibition building and for public events and conferences as well. This could be a new chance to create a a network of routes within the city and also a network of paths as far as castles and estates of Vidzeme region are concerned.

Casa Rassat, Aosta, Italy
Individual work / Master degree thesis / 2016 / Restoration
Casa Rassat is an abandoned and degraded building located in the north eastern sector of the city of Aosta and it faces the archaeological site of the Roman Theatre. It is an interesting witness of an intricate urban fabric which has been demolished from the twenties of the 20th century to rid the Roman monument, according to the fascist propaganda. These works have generated an urban void, and today the area of the Roman Theatre is a confined place and looks unattractive. The choice to design a hostel for young people aims to patch up the dialogue between the urban fabric and the archaeological area, attracting a large target of population and becoming a new meeting point within the city.

- project
For the social and tourist enhancement of the town of Sant’Abrogio, it has been decided to develop a multifunctional centre in the former Maglificio Bosio factory. The new centre of attraction includes: a nursery school, a gym, a spa, some temporary residences, a Bed&Breakfast, a little museum of “La Sacra di San Michele”, a shop and a restaurant related to San Michele brewery which has been moved in the adjacent block. Everything is rationally divided by three courtyards which are organized with green spaces and pedestrian paths. They also include an open-air cinema, a car park and outdoor bar that make the area more usable, always respecting the historical building. The building is part of an urban-scale project that wants to connect the city and the abbey by reorganizing and enhancing the paths in the town centre, with a particular focus on the public meeting areas.

The design of the masterplan focuses on three main levels of action: permeability, services and organization of the green areas. First of all, the aim of the project is to create some new connection axes between Parco ​Michelotti and the street behind it, Corso Casale, taking advantage of the already existing entraces on the ground floors of the buildings, which are considered in order to increase the permeability and the attractiveness of the park. Secondly, taking as reference the Hackesche Markt district in Berlin, the design extends the concept of permeability in a horizontal direction to connect the adjacent courtyards with each other. From this point of view, the aim to reopen the premises on the ground floors and to insert new compatible uses acquires greater value. Finally, according to the user needs, it was decided to reorganize the park as far as paths are concerned, dividing the bike path from the pedestrian one, and improving the services through the design of the abandoned spaces.
