About MeI enjoy travelling, playing the guitar, chess, painting and reading. Broadening my experience of human culture, environments and landscapes is what I search for in all of my spare time activities. An avid biker, a passionate swimmer, and an ardent runner, I am always on the move trying to capture on my camera or sketchbook the amazing world that sur-rounds us. I am also a proud Peregrino, having finished the Camino de Compostella in 2014

One can say
that the city itself
is the collective memory
of its people,
and like memory
it is associated
with
objects
and places.
The city is the locus of the collective memory.
Aldo Rossi

Create a manifestation of the memory
Weave a network of mani-festations and memories

The conceptual idea that stands at the basis of my design is the growth, distribution and characteristics of trees and their evocative use in architecture. By studying the characteristics of a tree, inter-esting conections can be established between all of them, all due to the fact that they are generated by a simple factor: light. The model strives to put into abstract form and present :
Concept
Height of treeDensity of trees at that stageSpace underneath the canopySize of canopyRhythm determined by density and heightAmount of light that the tree needs to sustain itselfSize of the tree trunk
The outcome of the process has made me realise that the sum of all the properties create different spaces with different experiential qual-ities. Throughout my design I try using this information gathered in creating evocative moments that refer to different types of forest.
