Research Projects


Works connected to my research activities




Here is a list of the main research projects I have developed and participated in during my academic and applied research activity. Projects include work connected to design research, materials engineering, digital fabrication, circular economy, sustainability, open design, and application-oriented work.

Each of them shows my contribution at different stages, ranging from project conceptualization, research development, experimental work, theoretical framework, and dissemination, as well as project coordination, collaboration, writing, and reporting.



Legend
