As you may know, Antonino is a Sicilian architect based in Rome, and his work has been receiving great acclaim internationally. I got to know him last summer, when I went to Rome and visited the studio, and I was very excited to see the work he is producing. There are many interesting things about his work that he is going to show you.

I could introduce my work in various ways, but I think it is relevant to explore the relationship between the development of my design research and computer graphics, as it was my first experience of creating a non-physical space. From a young age, I was fascinated by computer graphics and, before choosing to become an architect, I wanted to be a video game programmer.
