Architect with a bent for design, after a long experience in France which led him to work with Jacques Ripault and Christophe Pillet, Gae Avitabile returned to Caserta, choosing the region of Campania, in the South of Italy, as his place of residence and inspiration for his work.
Here, far from the official routes of design, he is a member of the scientific committee of the Royal Palace of Caserta and carries out his work as an architect both independently and in support of international studios. As well as these aspects, Gae Avitabile's research takes an independent path in his design and experimentation with new materials, an activity which always flows through a careful mapping of the local artisan expertise and resources.
