PhD candidate in Preservation of Architectural Heritage at Politecnico di Milano. The field of investigation concerns the preservation of Italian architecture of the Twentieth century and the strategies of intervention and protection of the built heritage. Of particular interest are the constructive research experimentations pursued between the two wars and in the post-war period. The Ph.D. research investigates the spread of the doubly curved structures, thin shells in reinforced concrete and other materials, between the fifties and seventies in Italy, from the historical, constructive, architectural, and cultural point of view and the challenges of their protection.
