“I have always been seduced by the atmosphere of a place, whether it was the living room of my home flooded with Mediterranean light or the severe courtyard of my elementary school.”

“I did my architectural studies in Milan, at the Polytechnic, fascinated by Giorgio Grassi's lectures. Here I met new ways to see the space and time of architecture, through the lenses of typology and morphology.”
