After the 2018 storm, Rapallo’s marina was reborn as a resilient, sustainable waterfront. Blending tradition and innovation, the design creates a public promenade in pietra di Carniglia, reconnecting the city with the sea.
Key elements include the sculptural Torretta, with nautical-inspired forms, and the reimagined Club House, where stone and glass reflect the site’s layered history. The harbour is a new civic space rooted in memory, open to the future.

The new HS2 station will incorporate passenger and retail facilities, providing a high quality and exemplary customer experience for all passengers and visitors to the station. It will provide direct interchange with conventional rail services.
The 6 high-speed platforms will be situated underground. There will be an integrated connection to the adjoining conventional station at ground level via a stylish shared overbridge.
A light and airy concourse will link both halves of the station, unified by a vast roof inspired by the site’s industrial heritage.

The Project has been developed for the 2019 edition of the African Cup of Nation.
The form of the construction is the echoes of a most familiar object, woven into the fabric of every day Cameroonian life – a coiled basket.
This definitive form, with its roots stretching back through time, is familiar to almost every culture around the globe and binds us in a shared heritage.
The stadium, an arresting sight rising above the rich vegetation and red earth of the Doualan countryside, will become a familiar, welcoming and cherished part of the cultural landscape .

Long Street development brings 119 luxury loft-style apartments with interconnected pub-lic gardens to the area — the first of its kind in this part of London.
The development consists of the construction of a new 10-storey building and the refurbishment of two existing 1950s ware-houses, while retaining the building’s original brick walls.
This was AECOM’s first fully integrated design and build luxury residential project in the UK.

Barratt London’s Fulham Riverside won the Landscape Development Award at the annual The Sunday Times British Home Awards.
Fulham Riverside is a 3.2 hectare site, once a coal-fired power plant then a brewery, located on the north bank of the Riv-er Thames in Fulham’s Sands End Riverside conservation area.
The development is transforming derelict warehouses and a disused jetty into a thriving new community of 468 new homes, dynamic public spaces and river frontage alongside restaurants, cafés, bars, and a gym.

Production of techinical drawings and conceptal visualization of the project for the pubblication in Architecture Today Inhabit_Edition:Autumn 2016.
The Dursley Treehouse is a 200sqm passive house that sits on a heavily wooded plot in the town of Dursley, Glouces-tershire.
The design plays with the cantile-vering of boxes that are elevated and offset between the protected trees on the site. The house also boasts a lightweight veranda that circulates around the home and projects into the tree canopy: an unusual treehouse escape hidden in the middle of a bustling town.
The project was managed by the clients themselves Jon and Noreen and was featured on Grand Designs in September 2016.

Client Briefing
Conceived on the heart of a new development center, this project was born as a connection between a public square and a new underground station.
The strength and physical pres-ence of the new volume is emphasized by highlighting an hypothetical telluric movement from the ground.
The facade comes from the equi-librium of a Zhao Wu Ji’s painting which has been translated into a parametric scheme of opening.

Materiality and immateriality. For this international competition we started from a conceptual reflection about the nature of music and architecture.
Here, these two arts find a union in which the immateriality essence of music is translated into a material architectonic language.
From a solid and central source, the concept expands its self in the area, like the vibrations of a sounding box on air.

For this international competition we have conceived a conceptual scheme that we have called LIGHT HOUSES(s) HOTEL. This scheme can be adpeded to a series of hotels all around Sicily.
By playing with temporary and permanent interventions our proposal is a moving hotel adapted to the natural sce-nario .
The old structure of Murro di Porco light house has been respected and enriched by a sustainable and light intern-vantion resulting by a fusion of tradition and innovation.

Shuka is a typical Maasai cloth. Lightness and subtlety are the main ele-ments of this project: two groups of inclined pillars around the two eucalyptus trees constitute the structure.
The result is a canopy that seems to float in the airs around the trees. This impression is increased by the open spaces over the trees that allows light to enter enriching the experience with games of shadow.
The project is conceived as an architectonic symbol, a white and architec-tural passage inside the nature.

The bridge was conceived as a whole parametric system by coming from a single sign between the banks of Elbe river. The result is an organic body that, from the nature of the Elbe Valley, introduces the city by framing it with its structural arch.
More than an infrastructure, in its architectonic expression, the bridge is a sign of recognition for a city in which moder-nity has to be just an enrichment of a strong classical identity.
By respecting this aspect, the bridge is a gentle and a silent jest, it cele-brates and respects the city as well as the nature of the Elbe Valley.

By using the new tehcnology of the swarm system applied to the compute-tional tools of grasshopper and processing, we have developed a series of simulations about the human behaviour in this area of Beijing.
The result has been the project of a system of urban parks in the central area of the district ; an organic system in which the architectonic intervents lead peo-ple towards a new series of attractor points.
The project has been published on the AA journal and exposed in the West Bund Art center of Shanghai.
