Profiel
I graduated in Architecture from Iuav University of Venice, where I also obtained the doctorate in Urbanism. I am currently an assistant professor of Spatial design of future deltaic systems in the faculty of Architecture and the built environment of TU Delft in the department of Urbanism, section of Environmental technology and design.
My academic work ranges from the study of the territorial dimension of engineering infrastructures to the design of spatial interventions to adapt to climate change. I am particularly interested in understanding and explaining how technology affects our society and shapes the places where we live.
Currently my scientific investigation centers on riverine and coastal areas. I conduct interdisciplinary research and design projects focused on water infrastructure. Physical modeling, scenario making, critical mapping, ethnographic fieldworks, archival research and site-specific designs are the main tools, methodologies and outputs I employ to scientifically develop climate adaptation.
