The scientific interests mainly concern the technological design, with a particular regard to the project conceived as a synthesis between the idea and its realization, through an inclusive approach based on a dialogue with the different stakeholders and disciplinary skills involved within the design process.

These theoretical assumptions are applied with reference to the framework of the environmental design, including research activities related to the environmental governance, the qualification of the built environment, the enhancement of the landscape and of the cultural heritage for local development, in particular through the application of the ecomuseum and participatory approaches.
