Part of Italian group ENEL Brasil, aiming Rio’s 2016 Olympics and the challenges of energy and water supply in Brazil, started with the support of Rio’s universities and the city of Niteroi, the project N.O.V.A. (which stands for We Live Tomorrow Now, in Portuguese). It sought to seek alternatives to answer contemporary concerns on sustainability, flexibility and adaptation of architecture to present and future challenges. It is not about forging concepts for a theoretical future; on the contrary, the objective is to break the cliché of a house that never becomes reality and to propose concrete evolving schemes. Existing technologies and behavioral patterns guided the project and the engagement in bringing collective consciousness for problems requiring alternative social behaviors.

In Rio de Janeiro there is no choice: one has to celebrate the landscape and that is the case of Casa AL. It is a project intimately conceived with a long time client and friend. Its conception started with the selection of the plot.
Refurbishing project of Kotobuki Restaurant, a traditional Japanese Restaurant in Rio de Janeiro (one of the first Japanese restaurants), which had an outdated architectural line, very much below the quality of the products offered. The tables and the linings were obsolete and they didn’t create the cozy atmosphere that it would like.
Novo BairroResidencial do Porto consists of a residential development located in the heart of Rio de Janeiro. Based on principles of innovative sustainability, functional diversity, and design sophistication, the project will offer to a refreshing way to compose new neighborhoods. The mixed-use residential development consists of 4 sites occupied by 17 residential towers, connected in rhythm by horizontal podiums of street-level shops with office, community and institutional premises above, and basement parking. It totals 396,283 m2 of construction above ground and 144,102 m2 of parking underground. The 3,790 apartments (1, 2, and 3 bedrooms units) all share high-quality amenities, reception and clubhouse spaces, gym, sport, and meeting facilities, outdoor gardens, sundecks and infinity pools overlooking the waters of Guanabara Bay.
As part of a package of investments for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, the regeneration of 85 hectares of land near the old docks will create more than 1 million sqm of apartments, hotels, office buildings and a convention centre. The project addresses two moments: the completion of support facilities for the 2016 Olympic Games (10,600-room accommodation for media and referees, a media-centre and 3 to 5-star hotels) and its transformation post-Games into a vibrant mixed-use extension of the city centre. A green loop circuit of public spaces embraces the whole master plan encouraging pedestrian and bicycle use by linking the various dissociated sites and connecting the whole area to the nearby waterfront of the revitalized docks.
The Uruguai Station is located on Tijuca neighborhood, in the North of Rio de Janeiro, and it is part of the extended Line 1 of the metro. The station occupies an old parking area for trains, known as “Rabicho da Tijuca”. The previous space, with reduced height and limited structural spans, was not suitable for a metro station.
When I got the opportunity to work in Rio de Janeiro the “the marvelous city”, I was thrilled, I knew that whatever I design it has to be and behave as a part of this wonderful place.
I started working on the master plan in my office in Rome, but it’s when I came to Rio that the actual shape was defined. The inspiration came while seating on one of the many famous beaches with a local cold drink. I remember drawing in my sketch book simple 5, 6 lines, but they captured it all.
