ANDREA CAPPELLETTI PORTFOLIO
Dear Mr./Ms. :
I am an Italian architect who graduated from Politecnico di Milano with a Master in Architecture and Interior Design. I earned both my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in English-taught programs.
I have a strong curiosity about the world beyond Italy. I previously volunteered in Africa and have a deep appreciation for Eastern cultures, particularly Japan and China. During my studies at Politecnico di Milano, I had the opportunity to explore Chinese history and culture in greater depth and built strong friendships with my Chinese classmates. I traveled to China in 2016 and 2019, attended summer schools, and studied Chinese at the Confucius Institute in Milan. I have continued learning the language and can communicate in basic Chinese at work.
Over the past five years, I have gained valuable experience working in an international environment, developing strong expertise in 3D modeling, design, and project management. My portfolio includes a diverse range of projects, from headquarters buildings and large exhibition centers to retail. I have been involved in all phases of the architectural process, from concept design to construction documentation and on-site supervision. Currently, I am part of HPP’s Shanghai branch, where I primarily focus on interior design projects.
I am particularly skilled in integrating AI tools into the design process and utilizing Rhino+Grasshopper to translate my architectural expertise into interior design, enhancing creativity and efficiency.
I look forward to your response.
Sincerely
Andrea Cappelletti 周才凯

The design of the project is inspired by the concept of a twisting star map, symbolizing a connection between the past and the future. It features swirling, dynamic shapes that evoke the motion of celestial bodies and the mysteries of the universe. The use of materials like GRG (Glass-reinforced Gypsum) and FRP (Fiber-reinforced Plastic) allows for the creation of seamless, flowing forms that mimic the fluidity of space. The interior spaces are characterized by their fluidity and adaptability, with curved surfaces and interactive elements that engage visitors. The overall style is a blend of warmth, vibrancy, and sophistication, with a touch of futuristic romance, making it a place where science meets art in a visually captivating environment.

Area

Grafted into the beautiful and protected landscape of Alzano Lombardo, the new Alzano Nursery School is a space where nature and light flow inside the light thin structures of the facades, made of steel and glass tiles.
Descending from the main street thanks to a playful ramp grafted in the garden, the kids reach a giant inner “Salone”, filled with natural light. A space where multiple activities can happen at the same time. The Salone itself is grafted by two inner glazed courtyards, which bring light to the depth of the building.
Flexibility is the determining element of the project. Although a name has been given to all the environments, the plan allows the spaces to be used in many different ways and to invent special teaching methods allowing teachers to express their creativity to the maximum for the benefit of the education of the little ones: this is how the spacescan easily be transformed into workshops for art, spaces for digital activities, gyms or spaces for theatrical activities.

AREA

The first bicycle station in Bergamo is set in a strategic and highly relevant location on the edge of the historic center and close to the train station.
The compact design of the construction develops through a fabricated metal structure. The glass perimeter façades run without interruption, breaking only at the intersection at the front entrance of the building. The main distinctive feature of the elevations is the absence of containment frames for the glass surfaces, where single-point fixings are used instead.
The transparent shell offers a diffused natural light to the station, which, at night, takes on a centralizing role, lightening up quite like a lantern. The construction is conceived as circular and reversible architecture.
All the materials employed are reusable or recyclable, and the whole structure can be easily disassembled. and reconstructed elsewhere.

The object of the intervention is the new management center of a historic factory in the heart of Bergamo. The project provides new administrative offices to the vast industrial complex.
Developed on two levels and consisting of two residential units of 500 square meters, it was designed with prefabrication systems to reduce execution times to about eight months overall.
The interiors intended for offices have an essential character; the structure and the systems have been intentionally left exposed, characterizing the office space with an industrial and welcoming flavor.
The chromatic impact is based on the alternation of the white color of the finish with the dark color of the floors and windows, while the characterizing green iron staircase stands out.
