One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Last year 2011 I have traveled from Chicago to New York with a group of architects and we have the great privilege of interviewing the historic architect Robert Venturi at his studio in Philadelphia, amazing person, full of energy and passion... Four years ago I have been involved in the urban design for the New Supercity for Ecotourism “Saemangeum” in South Korea giving me the chance to visit the country and enjoy their culture...Other of my great memories is when I was in Czech Republic working for one week with one of my professors at the Academy of Antwerp in Belgium. We went to the region of Boheme, where the famous factories of glass, and design a serie of sculptures that only can be made by this experienced masters of hand blown glass.
