I am an architect and designer working across disciplines, developing projects that move between spatial design, conceptual work, and research-driven practice. My work is guided by a strong interest in how design operates as a cultural act — shaping not only objects and environments, but the contexts in which they exist. Alongside my creative practice, I have held senior academic leadership roles equivalent to Dean level within international design institutions, directing programs, faculty, and institutional strategy across multidisciplinary contexts. My work extends design beyond practice into the structuring of educational, institutional, and professional contexts — applying a design approach to how systems are conceived, developed, and positioned. This includes developing programs, partnerships, and platforms that connect academic work with industry and broader cultural frameworks, while maintaining strong conceptual foundations. I have worked across institutions including Domus Academy and Istituto Marangoni, contributing to their academic development, international positioning, and engagement with the design and creative industries. I am particularly interested in how design practice extends beyond the production of objects — engaging with cultural, institutional, and professional contexts, and contributing to broader forms of discourse.
