CREATIVE DESIGN + SUSTAINABILITY I am an Italian architect with a focus on sustainable design and high performance building construction. I believe architecture should serve the community to improve people lives. Throughout my studies and work experience, I came to appreciate the amazing and complex relationship of roles and needs that contribute to the design process. The relentless drive to devise best solutions is what keeps fueling my passion. Being an architect and LEED AP with a Master of Environmental Building Design (MEBD) from University of Pennsylvania, I do appreciate efficiency and green standards. However, I believe that sustainable architecture is more than that. In my opinion, sustainability means innovation, commitment, engagement, and creativity at the same time. All at the scale of the community to unlock people’s potential for change. I am looking forward to the next opportunity to prove my challenge my skills, to show leadership and teamwork, and to commit with passion and reliability.

INNOVATIVE SHOOL DESIGN COMPETITION
The project aims to shape a unique architectural design to solve different needs: innovative educational will, children safety and wellness, environmental care. The green slope that creates the building geometry solves the relationship between the project and the preexisting park. The green roof provides additional room for outdoor actitivites and recreation, in addition to representing the perfect terrace to enjoy Lucca’s sight with the view of the ancient medieval walls and roman aqueduct. Below the roof, several spaces take place: the gym, the library, and the auditorium are rooms imagined to provide the community with a public meeting point to host all the required new activities. The extension of the park itself has the potential to rediscover the contact with nature and transform the school experience in an educational path. Given the gentle local weather, the idea resumes the old practice of walking the children outdoors with the primary goal of rediscovering the environment ant engaging the kids in activities with interesting new pedagogical implications.

BIOCLIMATIC HYBRIDS The project begins with the challenge of reusing and restoring an existing, vacant brownfield site located on the fringe between Seattle’s industrial district to the south and the heart of the city to the north. Positioned in Elliott Bay, the site demands a delicate articulation between the distinct urban fabric along the shore and the increased environmental exposure toward the water. The project aims to yield to the forces present on the site, namely the exposure of wind and sun on the south edge of the site, while also taking advantage of these forces as well. The presence of annual cloud cover also allows for a freedom in plan regarding daylighting access, something the project aims to benefit from as well. The 120,000sf mixed use building adds 65,000sf additional program to accommodate the larger site, such as facilities to take advantage of the nearby busy ferry terminal, as well as bike and outdoor recreational facilities to respond to the burgeoning urban density that places 101 Alaskan Way at its core.

ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES With the renewed urgency of environmental issues— from global climate change to resource shortages and “net zero” design—architects are faced with demands for new kinds of services that require a new kind of professional. LEED accreditation is only a start, helping designers utilize existing technologies, but a wider range of skills is required to achieve real innovation and to meet the needs of clients in this rapidly changing field. The challenge to architects is to operate at scales greater and smaller than that of the building, requiring the understanding of the chemistry of materials as well as consideration of the impact of whole populations of buildings on their local, regional, and global ecosystems. New skills and knowledge required for environmental design must be integrated into the practice of architecture: > building performance simulation; > Spatial Daylight Autonomy (sDA) assessment and glare control; > CFD simulation;

CFD Base Geom. Exploration |MEBD “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change” – Stephen Hawking The research attempt to provide a thorough catalogue of the role played by wind in the built context using CFD simulation to estimate the effect of pressure on building in different orientations and contexts. To generalize the applicability of results to a wide range of scenarios, the first part of the research defined a Grasshopper script able to efficiently generate a potentially infinite number of different threedimensional scenarios with less user intervention. This step constituted a critical tool to facilitate the integration of the two main platforms used for the purpose of the research: Rhinoceros, the computer graphics software used to generate the test geometry, and Ansys Fluent, employed to simulate fluid flows in the virtual environment. The second part of the research was dedicated to Ansys Fluent simulation adjustments and tuning, essential for the accurate development of the work-flow, and to result analysis. Moreover, the research lays the foundation for further improvements of the Grasshopper script and process automation. In fact it would be advantageous the use of Python programming tools to automate the collaboration of the two softwares and to facilitate the transition phase from geometry to CFD simulation. Overall, a good agreement was found between expected and experimental results validating the truthfulness of presented values and relevance of the research as helpful handbook for designers in the understanding of dynamic wind behavior and basic concepts of fluid mechanics.

DETAILS & ANALYTIQUE The analytique is no mere representation of a building; rather it presents a building through its details and it gives insight into the detail as generator. The analytique is intended to present multiple scales side by side in an overall composition. ‘The Tell-theTale Detail� by Marco Frascari was considered as a point of departure for their explorations.

THE VARIETIES OF BUILDING E[M]ERGY INTENSITY One of the enduring problems of environmental building design is the determination of meaningful norms or points of comparison for evaluation. Building energy use is typically normalized to floor area and compared to buildings of similar types of use in similar climates. This provides a valuable tool for analyzing building operation, but reveals little about building construction and completely obscures the effects of building size or location. Using the techniques of e[m]ergy synthesis exposes the full environmental costs and interconnections of buildings and provides a more comprehensive basis for evaluation. Throughout the course of the academic year I collaborated in the careful drafting of both data, texts, and diagrams for Prof. William Braham’s investigation of the total amount of E[m]ergy involved in 18 different residential buildings.

Summer 2015 EUROPAN 13 | UPSIDE TOWN “What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient... highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it’s almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed - fully understood - that sticks” ( Inception - Christopher Nolan )
The proposed study area of Saint-Brieuc Municipality raises the question of the separation between the city centre and the Légué area, one elevated on the top the other lying along the valley. The distance that separates the two pieces of Saint Brieuc is both horizontal and vertical. Also, the centre is deeply connoted by human activities with no pauses or wide open spaces, while the Légué lacks in functions and landmarks. The distance is also a space, a physical location whose extension can be filled out with opportunities. In this regard, a street or a bicycle way is expected to exploit its hosting capacity to develop social features and connectivity functions. According to a new definition of the relationship between town and nature “Upside Town” aims to propel the union of the two parts by implanting the best features of each in the other.

Fall 2014 TAGLIO DI PO | 3RD PRIZE The church square and the fountain are generating elements and points of connection for the new square, a long pedestrian strip connecting the war memorial to the place of worship. This creates a single coherent system in which each hubs develops its own particular role within the urban space.

THE SPACE INSIDE | FAVENTIA ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION “The Space Inside” stresses the idea of an “inner space” thereby apparently closed, delimited, confined. The three courts are immediately recognizable. each of them encompassed in a geometrically continuous perimeter. The project draws a deep transformation of the edges of the site, of the boundaries that encompass the spaces of the contest. The concept aims to redefine the idea of perimeter, from the mere functional aspect of boundary to an higher abstraction of “living” space. The parking represents the main feature of the project, addressing an essential need of this strategic area of the Faenza city center. The new building hosts a sports center with a 7 players soccer field, a gym and modern rooms at disposal of the city. To extend the day-cycle of the building, we included a restaurant with a bar on the ground level, and a preferential panoramic position in the head of the building above the main entrance.

EUROPAN 12 | “Heterotopia� The careful observation of local architectural features brings to a project suggesting a local style, up-to-date with present technologies. The project is formed by a concrete porticoed vaulted base, covered (lined) with local stone (granite), topped by a vertical listel oak structure. The stone base hovers conference rooms, a small theater and a great part of the market, paradigm of adaptable space. During daytime it will be used for the sale of local handcraft and local food products, during night-time it will turn into a meeting place. Conference rooms are projected so to be used apart for small conferences or joined when more room is required.

EUROPAN 12 | “Chute” - RunnerUp The project “Chute” for the city of Ciney aims at becoming a new pole for services and residential housin. By developing a range of in-line accommodations and block houses we created two type of spaces at different levels: one that allows access to the accommodations and the parking area, which can be turned into playground; the other in a light vacuum sloping down to the river. These slopes work as water retainers in case of flooding and as green spaces for sport and leisure, responding to matters such as resiliency and adaptability. The materials used, bricks and steel coatings, refer to the Belgian figurative tradition, so as to obtain a project where people can easily identify. For the buildings nearby the railway, we opted for Corten steel panels which recall a more industrial environment, such as that of the railways.

Ultima fase nella realizzazione della struttura è la creazione della struttura esterna in profili di acciaio HEB 320 saldati tra di loro. Un profilo di queste dimensioni consente di ovviare all'assenza di appoggi intermedi, consentendo una migliore percezione della volumetria dell'intera struttura. Vengono posizionati in ultima istanza le catene di controvento. La struttura che andrà ad ospitare l'impianto dei frangisole è così realizzata.

Terza fase è il posizionamento del pannello X-lamhe definisce la il solaio di copertura. Questo sfrutta l'appoggio dato dalle pareti sottostanti alle quali viene legato per mezzo di viti speciali fornite dall'azienda produttrice. In questa fase viene creata la pendenza del 1% della copertura cos' da consentire il deflusso delle acque meteroiche. I pacchetti che andranno quindi posti non dovranno avere alcuna componente con lo scopo di creare la pendenza. Il secondo step della realizzazione consiste nella posa dei pannelli strutturali prefabbricati X-lam. La prefabbricazione a partire da questa fase diviene la costante dello sviluppo del progetto. I pannelli che vanno a definire le pareti portanti sono prodotti in fabbrica accorciando i tempi di posa in cantiere. Si realizzano poi in un secondo momento i pacchetti coibentanti e le partizioni interne.

Primo step è la creazione di plinti armati da cui partono pilastri con luce di 4m. Si passa poi alla realizzazione della struttura del molo attraverso la creazione di una base in calcestruzzo strutturale premiscelato 350 Kg/mq, armata con maglie di Ø16 per ovviare al momento generato dai carichi permanenti e accidentali previsti da normativa. Sulla soletta saranno già previsti i tirafondi necessari per ancorare la struttura in acciaio della schermatura solare.

PIER RESTORATION | Castel dell’Alpi, Italy - with Arch. Alessandro Pracucci The project consists of a 2o-by-10 meter mooring space protruding on top of the lake surface. Imagined to be an attraction for both locals and tourists, the new mooring pier hosts a restaurant and café that allows the visitor to enjoy the amazing experience of the lake and the surrounding mo The privileged location facilitates orientation with maximum exposure to the south. Also, being located in the central part of the lake is not far from the homes and it was easily included in the new urban planning system for the town of Castel dell’Alpi. In the selection of technologies and building systems great importance was given to the practical management of the site: drymounted technologies both in wood and steel have been designed to allow great flexibility to the building, both during construction and maintenance phase..

IMOLA AUTODROME | “Franco Tinti” thesis competition - 1st PRIZE
“Imola Autodrome. Territorial strategies and urban regeneration in the Motorvalley landscape “ addresses the issue of the regenaration of an extremely uncommon infrastructure as that of a racetrack laid on the edge of the city, developing a cultural and territorial reconnection of the urban park, the river and the city, reaching important and original project outcomes. The project aims at three different scales of action: > the racetrack and Imola, to bond the gap between the city and its infrastructure; > the racetrack in the Motorvalley, to enhance its image and prestige within the regional network; > the racetrack for the environment, to give new value to the surrounding farmland and to appreciate the excellence of local goods;

THE “SPACE OF LIGHT” DESIGN | 5TH YEAR Today Architecture as the “art of the visible”, now simulacrum of itself and orphan of a real grip on the physical environment, must be addressed in its existential, material, technological, linguistic and symbolic components. The project explores the contribution and the adaptation to the achievements of science and art in alignment with the aspirations of “urban-man “, aimed to restore a more direct relationship with the world around him.

SKETCHES & HANDRAWINGS It always comes a time where an illustrator has to take decisions, push the tip of his pen on the paper and dirty up the white space in front of him. If it is a complicated line he is facing, he will feel kind of stuck, afraid of ruin his work, and he will start thinking about that next line over and over. That is where he will get to understand that the sign he is adding to his drawing it is like a leap into the void. There is no way back. In my experience I got to understand that drawing was a training for real life, where you can prepare your choices, arrange your next move, pay the more attention you can on every detail, wait for the best opportunity, but in the end there will come a time where you have to jump, and try something you cannot fully foresee.
