CV RESUME
Qualified Architect in Italy, he obtained a Master Degree in architecture from the Politecnico di Milano, Milan (Italy). His research is related to thermal comfort and, in particular, to the thermal performances of insulation materials assessed by a life-cycle thinking methodology, and with great attention to the environmental impact (LCA - Life Cycle Assessment - methodology).
Since 2012, as a research fellow, he has been collaborating, under the direction of professor Alessandra Zanelli, to several European Research projects. Among them, two are mentioned: the EU-funded project "S(P)EEDKITS - Rapid deployable kits as seeds for self-recover”, in which he directly investigated the best lightweight insulation systems applicable to tents for emergency. And the “EASEE - Envelope Approach to improve Sustainability and Energy efficiency in Existing multi-storey multi-owner residential buildings” project, in which he was mainly involved in the engineering and characterization of indoor insulation solutions and, in particular, in designing, lab scale prototyping and the performances evaluation of textile-based retrofitting solution for the inner envelope in existing multi-storey and multi-owner residential buildings.
