Studio Fuksas, led by Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas, is one of the most outstanding international architectural firms in the world. Over the past 40 years the company has developed an innovative approach through a strikingly wide variety of projects, ranging from urban interventions to airports, from museums to cultural centres and spaces for music, from convention halls to offices, from interiors to design collections. With headquarters in Rome, Paris and Shenzhen, and a staff of 170 professionals, the practice has completed more than 600 projects and has worked in Europe, Africa, America, Asia and Australia, receiving numerous international awards.

On Thursday we will have the pleasure of welcoming Massimiliano Fuksas to our institute where he will give a talk on the mutability of contemporary Architecture and Sustainability. The speaker will reflect on the role of architecture and urban planning as fields of study that have to reflect the past and carefully thinking of the consequences that our actions will have in the future.

According to Fuksas, the architect has a huge responsibility toward civil society toward human being and environment. For this reason, architecture must propose environmentally friendly solutions by making use of the most advanced technology to affect the less possible the planet creating buildings with the lowest possible energy consumption and the best possible indoor climate. His main headline is to remember that architecture must give people emotions.
