Il capitolo seguente è una raccolta personale di progetti di architettura e design d’interni che ho realizzato durante i miei studi al Politecnico di Milano. Si estendono dal 2017 al 2022 e coprono sia la laurea triennale in Design dell’Architettura che quella magistrale in ArchitetturaAmbiente Costruito - Interni.
The project is a modular house made of nine 3m x 3m cubes, designed for an architectural course in the second year of the bachelor’s degree.
The location is a lakeside in northern Europe and the “client” is a boat maker.
The project explores the possibilities of modularity and adaptation to the natural context.

The project was developed in the second year of the master program, as part of the “Thematic Studio” course.
The course required an urban intervention in Sagrera, a district of Barcelona, Spain.
The project proposed a urban system that combined a Museum of Urban Agriculture and a Vertical Farm. The building was conceived as a landmark and a catalyst for the regeneration of the area, as well as a showcase of sustainable and innovative practices.
Barcelona - Sagrera
Questo progetto è stato svolto il secondo anno del corso magistrale con il laboratorio “Thematic Studio”.
L’obiettivo del corso è quello di attuare un intervento urbano nel quartiere Sagrera a Barcellona. La sfida progettuale è quella di creare un museo e un orto verticale.
Il progetto propone un sistema urbano che combina un museo e un orto verticale.
Gli edifici sono pensati per essere dei punti di riferimento e base per la rigenerazione urbana dell’area., esponendosi come modelli di sostenibilità e innovazione
Semester: 9°











The aim of the project is to revitalize the elementary school of Pecetto di Valenza, making it a point of attraction for the families from all around the area.
The strategy that we applied was aiming to the trasformation of all the spaces into a didactic and interactive area through the addition of wooden elements on the walls, and flexible tables and chairs that allows the user to change the layouts according to their needs.
The outdoor area provides multiple activities including a game zone, a climbing wall, and a miniature multifunctional sports field.
Primary School - Pecetto
L’obiettivo del progetto è quello di rivitalizzare la scuola elementare di Pecetto di Valenza, rendendola un punto di attrazione per le famiglie provenienti dalle zone limitrofe.
La strategia utilizzata ha la finalità di rendere didattici interattivi tutti gli spazi della scuola attraverso elementi in legno applicati alle pareti e arredo flessibile che permette all’utente di modificare il layout delle stanze a seconda delle necessità.
L’area esterna fornisce molteplici attività come una zona di gioco, un muro per scalata e un campo multifunzionale ridotto.

DidActivity | Taking edges off of Education
The aim of the project is to revitalize the elementary school of Pecetto di Valenza, making it a point of attraction for the families from all around the area. With the addition of wooden extrusions to the existing walls, the design proposes an environment in which daily objects and spaces become didactive.

The outdoor area provides multiple activities including a game zone, a climbing wall, and a miniature multifunctional sports field. A self-standing staircase is attached to the façade, relieving the circulation of the indoors.
On the interiors, modular elements attached to the walls, provide a smooth transition between spaces allowing students to experience school as a journey. The silhouettes are inspired by the charming landscapes of the region, making a reference to the natural context surrounding the school. Moreover, an abandoned room is transformed into a library with light penetrating from both sides.
With the help of the adaptive furniture that vary both in size and height, the project offers a comfortable setting for kids of all ages to be around each other. As the modular additions are also capable of hosting these furniture, the classrooms provide the option to have free spaces that can be arranged according to the needs of the curriculum. The amount of storage is increased through the same elements making the design not only suitable for the pupils but also for the education staff. The idea is presented through simple solutions, yet creates a harmonious and enjoyable space making school a place one wants to be, for everyone.

Professional Works
Come conclusione di questo portfolio, ho deciso di includere alcuni progetti realizzati durante la mia esperienza lavorativa presso Twister Architetti Associati.
The project was firstly focusing on the complete restyling of the façade, renovated with the preservation of the original compositive language and the enriched with the use of materials with higher performance and aesthetic value.
The building is now characterised by a new ventilated façade, with a finishing in Ceppo di Gré stone and high-performance fixtures that allows the reaching of higher energetic standards.
Carducci 125 - S.S Giovanni
Il progetto di riqualificazione dell’immobile ha riguardato in primo luogo un restyling completo della facciata, rinnovata conservando il linguaggio compositivo originario, ma arricchito con l’uso di materiali più performanti e di maggior qualità estetica.
Il building si presenta così con una nuova facciata ventilata rivestita in Ceppo di Gré e dotata di serramenti altamente performanti, che hanno consentito di raggiungere elevati standard di prestazione energetica.
