07. In the void, the form: Japanese harmonies in my projects.
Japanese architecture has always exerted on me a silent yet powerful attraction. It is not merely an aesthetic fascination, nor a simple stylistic influence: it is a way of thinking about space, of shaping relationships between void and solid, between light and matter, between the individual and the environment...
06. Who is Pimentel Fonseca and why dedicate a project to her?
Before answering the question “Who is Pimentel Fonseca?”, I need to take a step back and briefly explain how I first encountered this historical figure. During a book fair at the Royal Palace of Naples, I stopped in front of a volume whose cover immediately caught my attention — a simple portrait of a woman. I began to leaf through it, and a lady approached me with great gentleness...
05. El Camino del Norte de Santiago, Part one. The bridge.
About a year ago, I took a journey I never imagined I would make — unique in its kind. And yet here I am, writing and thinking about every single step I walked.

03. Ettore Sottsass, the master behind the scenes.
If I were “infected” by the Sottsass syndrome? Good, because it’s a precious symptom, one that reveals an endless curiosity about everything. Speaking about Ettore Sottsass means crossing one of the most free and visionary paths of the twentieth century. Architect by training, artist by vocation, and designer by necessity and passion, Sottsass always rejected labels, choosing instead to move between disciplines as if in a continuous dialogue...
02. My author's newsstand.
Like AD, The Plan, Domus and Casabella are inexhaustible sources of ideas that guide you to realization of interior furnishings, analyze construction details, see new architectural trends, how to use a building material, how to take care of the graphics and presentation of a project and consequently the creation of content. The exercise I do...
01. How my Maltese experience has shaped my career path.
From working with The House Shop and CarmeloDelia to firsthand knowledge of the LUBE reality, LEMA Mobili and Loiudice Divani, where I was able to experience the entire production chain up close, until the final assembly of a kitchen and furniture. A path that brought me closer to a reality of great importance and which I still carry with me today with sincere enthusiasm ...
