RESTYLING AND INTERIOR
The redevelopment project of the "Galleria Mazzini" in Lecce was conceived as part of the design competition of the same name.
It aims to transform a commercial space in a state of degradation and obsolescence into a multifunctional, accessible and inclusive environment. Particular attention has been paid to children and people with disabilities: play areas with anti-trauma flooring, reading areas and workshops have been planned, as well as areas dedicated to the little ones with changing tables, other equipment and accessible toilets. The entire gallery has been designed without architectural barriers, with continuous paths, slight slopes and automatic sliding doors. The intervention also aimed to improve the aesthetic and functional quality of the spaces through new floors, diffused lighting, green walls and comfortable furnishings. In addition to shopping, the gallery offers relaxation areas, coworking, exhibitions, a library and information points, becoming a meeting and social place. The project combines sustainability, safety and enhancement of local identity, aiming to give the city a liveable urban space, open to all.
Once again I had the pleasure of testing myself, together with other colleagues, in a design competition. Out of 43 proposals presented, ours reached the podium, winning third place. I am particularly satisfied to have had the same intuition as the winning project, proposing the replacement of skylights with cloisters to increase internal brightness.
Despite the limited time and limited resources, we managed to achieve a result of great value. It was a long journey, started in October 2024 and concluded with the delivery in February 2025: complex, full of challenges, but also deeply formative.
A heartfelt thanks to my colleagues who worked alongside me and who made it possible to realize a project that I am truly proud of!

RESTORATION, CONSERVATION, ENHANCEMENT AND H-BIM - The process of creating a BIM model from a point cloud is a complex but fascinating process. In this specific case, in developing the BIM model of the Roman theater in Teramo, it was necessary to use specialized software for BIM modeling and data management. However, the final result is a detailed and precise model that can be used for design, planning and management of cultural heritage. To learn more about this process, contact us via the "Contacts" form or via chat.
RESIDENCE AND SUSTAINABILITY - We are excited to present one of the latest projects carried out in collaboration with other colleagues who thank each other. An innovative initiative that combines sustainability and attention to the environment. For this feasibility project for social housing in Bologna we have chosen eco-sustainable strategies and materials, chosen to reuse water resources efficiently and adopt renewable energy. Our commitment goes beyond the environmental dimension: we have worked to create spaces for sociality and local community and to promote sustainable lifestyles. A concrete step towards a greener and more responsible future.

We look forward to seeing this school become a beacon of learning and growth in the local community.

HEALTH AND RSA - The project of a feasibility study for a new RSA in Trentino includes two main blocks connected by a lower one. Located in a densely urbanized context, the RSA offers 117 beds for the elderly and Alzheimer's patients, integrating community spaces to promote sociality and the feeling of "home". The buildings are designed to maximize natural light and ventilation, with sustainable solutions such as photovoltaic panels and geothermal systems. The outdoor spaces, including an aromatic garden and a tree-lined square, improve the quality of the air and the microclimate, making the environment welcoming and livable for guests and the neighborhood.
URBAN and RURAL REGENERATION - The project created within a design competition came in second. It aims to enhance the Canale della Zingara, transforming this historic ravine into a multifunctional park for the entire community of Statte. With naturalistic and urban redevelopment interventions, pedestrian and cycle paths, thematic areas for all ages, urban gardens, therapeutic gardens and spaces for events have been designed. The new infrastructures and squares allow for the improvement of sustainable mobility, promoting social and cultural inclusion, and stimulating the local economy, making the park a green lung and an ecological corridor for the city.
