I graduated in 1988 from the former STS, now known as SUPSI, receiving the Maraini and Schindler awards for the highest grades. From 1988 until '93, I worked for several architectural firms in Canton Ticino. In 1993, at the age of 28, I decided to start my own practice. Over the years, I have completed numerous projects, the vast majority for private clients, including single-family homes (new builds or renovations), duplexes, apartment buildings, as well as some public establishments such as bars and shops. I personally oversee the work from design to building delivery. I also provide real estate appraisals for banks, public entities, and private clients. Additionally, I offer project management services for third parties. The decision to open my own studio has proven successful, as it has allowed me to enjoy the freedom that independence offers – freedom of time, choices, opinions, and ideas. During these years, I have developed excellent working relationships, and later friendships, with many individuals. I'm referring to my collaborators, craftsmen, and also my clients, with whom I have remained in contact even after the completion of projects. Despite the undeniable challenges, being an architect is a beautiful profession that I pursue with pleasure, enthusiasm, and professionalism!
