Since its creation in Paris in 2001, the office of Silvio d’Ascia Architecture has been tackling issues linked to new forms of “urbanity” in the 21st-century city, through three main avenues of research: transport, service industries and enhancement and renewal of heritage. This sensitive approach to architecture rooted both in its contemporaneousness and its humanist dimension is manifested in the diversity of its project typologies – centers of exchange, innovative commercial and service buildings such as the data centers as well as projects to add new floors to existing buildings and housing – blending technological, aesthetic and societal aspects.
