VAMO showcases multiple lifecycles of natural materials. A virgin hemp rope tensile network and upcycled wooden hoops are interlaced to create a flexible bell-shaped structure clad in bio-based materials. The main contribution on my side was on the upcycling of the non-structural wooden boards into structural ring segments and the fabrication of the joinery with a CNC. This collaboration of the MIT, ETH Zürich, Anku and MITdesign X ventures was exhibited at the Venice architecture Biennale 2025.
Insieme is a structure built from reclaimed bricks salvaged from demolition sites. By tracking and tracing the histories of these materials, it merges digital tools with traditional circular practices to promote creative reuse in architecture. The main contribution on my side is the construction and digital material platform which let visitors trace the history of each building element and explore its potential for future reuse. Insieme is a joint project with Catherine De Wolf and Vanessa Costalonga and was exhibited at the Venice architecture Biennale 2025.
Reclaimed Design is a computational design-to-fabrication framework for reclaimed lumber that enables structural systems to be designed around the availability and properties of existing materials rather than standardized stock. By combining material analysis, machine learning, equilibrium-based structural design, and robotic fabrication, the project demonstrates how digital technologies can support circular construction practices and unlock new possibilities for timber reuse.
The project is my joint Mater thesis with Laura Marsillo and Gonzalo Muñoz Guerreo.
The ITECH Research Pavilion 2024 is a bio-based hybrid architecture that combines timber and natural fibres. The project introduces the co-design of new computational design methods and multi-robot fabrication processes tailored to leverage the inherent characteristics of each material.
The project was designed and fabricated by students from the ITECH master's program and researchers at the Cluster of Excellence "Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture (IntCDC)" at the University of Stuttgart.
Knitted Mycelium is a column from 3D knitted Mycelium enclosed in natural textile tubes.
This is a joint project with Aysima Yavuz, Gonzalo Muñoz Guerreo and Kalaivanan Amudhan.
