Stefano de Angelis
Architect
Stefano grew up in a multi-cultural environment, both Latin and German which later influenced is approach to architecture. He is fascinated by the creative force of men and cultures and the rapid changes taking place in the world. Through his professional, military, political experiences in Switzerland and Italy, he learned that the basic rules for doing well in any business are always the same and that the most important aspect in the work of every man is consistency. He believes that the world can be changed only through the personal commitment of every person living on our planet.
After 10 years aimed at designing and constructing buildings for others, he finally began to design a building for himself, seeking to be consistent with his thinking: opened to the city that surrounds it, linear and transparent as society should be, technologically relevant to the time, non-polluting. This culminated into the deltaZERO building in Lugano. It demonstrates that it is possible to construct buildings with zero pollution output. Now he wants to convey to others the passion and energy to be consistent and improve cities: if we all follow our dreams and work hard, we can!
