Architecture is my passion and it permeates every part of my daily life, ambitions, and aspirations to become a professional. While working on a project of any scale I always take the utmost care in mak- ing sure that the principles of clarity, simplicity and usability are reflected in my work. To do that, I al- ways start by analising the problem at hand, while taking the designed program into consideration, to make sure that space, scale and appearence of the de- sign relate to the local context and culture through the coherent use of materials, a critical approach to environmental sustainability and use of appropriate technologies. @ Via Varna 58, 00124, Rome, Italy massimilianodecrignis@gmail.com +39 331 1512473 instagram.com/massimilianodecrignis/ 2 14 / 09 / 1991 EDUCATION MSc in Architectural Design (2019) | Università degli studi Roma Tre BSc in Science of Architecture (2015) | Università degli studi Roma Tre EXPERTISE Software Autocad 2D/3D, Rhinoceros, Revit, Vectorworks, 3DS Max, SketchUp, V-Ray Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Outlook) Language English, C1, TOEFL 101/120 Italian, native speaker EXPERIENCE Benedetti Architects, Architectural Assistant Intern, Sept-Dec 2018 Assisted in the design process of the following projects: • Varco Road, Residential/Mixed Use (est. cost £17 milion) Drew plans, elevations, sections.

- 4. 4 U R BA N R E G E N E R A T I O N I N V I A D E I F O R I I M P E R I A L I M S c F i n a l p r o j e c t Via dei Fori Imperiali has been the subject of a cultural and administrative debate regarding the relationship between history and modernity since its conception. The temporal stratifications in the area causes an evident fragmentation of space, which results in bad urban fruition and historical comprehension. The design aims to mend the ancient and modern traces through an archaeological and urban recon- nection through four main actions: _Reconnect the Trajan’s Forum, the Augustus Forum, the Nerva’s Forum and the Caesar’s Forum together, in order to improve their fruition and historical un- derstanding. _Restore some urban routes belonging to the medi- aevil city that had been lost with the archaeological excavations of the nineteenth century. _Return the spatial arrangement of the Fori on Via dei Fori Imperiali through a redesign of the pavement and greenery. _Constitute a network of pedestrian connections and service spaces capable of giving structure to the Cen- tral Archaeological Area of Rome. location: Via dei Fori Imperiali, Rome in collaboration with: Michele Beccu (Tutor) 5

S T UD E N T H O U S I N G , R O M E M S c F i r s t s e m e s t e r p r o j e c t The project takes into consideration its urban context with a design proportioned to its surroundings and capable to enliven the area. The building was designed to have public spaces and retail at ground level, while the upper floors have students accomodations and services such as study rooms, laundry rooms and shared facilities. The upper floors are connected by catwalks that span over the public realm beneath, this way the private and the pubblic areas of the building always interact with each in intersting ways, but without mixing pri- vate and social use. This configuration creates a lively public space and a safe private housing. location: Via degli Stradivari, Rome in collaboration with: Francesco Cellini (Tutor) 14 15

ALESSANDRINO CIVIC CENTRE MS c T h i r d s e m e s t e r p r o j e c t The Alessandrino Civic Center hosts a variety of pub- lic services and spaces: public offices, a restaurant, a gym, a reading room on the upper floor and a basket- ball field, a pool and a lecture hall on the ground floor. The 3 functions that needed a high ceiling were put at ground level and are mostly transparent, all the other functions were located above them, in 4 “slabs” that appear to float. These “slabs” have mostly open plans with minimal internal partitions, this way the program can have a certain degree of versatility if necessary. location: Via degli Olmi, Rome in collaboration with: Arianna Conte, Giovanni Longobardi (Tutor) 20 21

The main objective of the project was to connect the two neighborhoods and to redevelop the abandoned areas in order to establish new functions and rela- tionships in this part of the city. To do so, 3 key ar- eas where chosen in which to establish strong links between the 2 neighborhoods: on Viale Giustiniano Imperatore (1) Via Cristoforo Colombo was burried in order to exted the city fabric on top of it. In (2) and (3) pedestrian bridges were made to create a safe cross- ing. location: Via Cristoforo Colombo, Rome in collaboration with: A. Conte, A. Golchay, F. Javid, V. Palmieri (Tutor) 29 1 2 3

- 20. 36 RESTORATION OF THEFORMER BRANCACCIO HUNTING LODGE B S c F i f t h s e m e s t e r p r o j e c t This little building has had numerous stratification during its history. Its basament is composed by ruins of the baths of Trajan, in fact on its facades the origi- nal opus latericium that composed the ancient roman building can be seen. During the Middle Ages these ruins had its first new use: on top of them was erected a hunting lodge. The latest layering goes back to 1930, when the ad- ministration of restoration of Rome organized a ren- ovation of the building. Nowdays it is being use as a rest home for elders. The aim of the project was to restore the building from a structural standpoint. location: Terme di Traiano, Rome in collaboration with: A.Conte, M. C. Aguillera, M. Zampilli (Tutor) 37
