ANNACARLA SECCHI ARCHITECT

Annacarla Secchi

​

I am an architect specialising in residential renovations and interior architecture.

 

For me, designing begins with understanding people: their habits, their everyday needs, how they live in their spaces and how they would like to live in them.

​

Every project begins with a careful observation of what already exists. I seek to recognise the qualities of a place, understand what deserves to be preserved and identify the changes that can bring a new sense of balance to its spaces.

​

The layout of spaces, light, materials and furnishings are all part of a single, coherent design. I seek solutions that respond to the way people live, rather than simply to a particular aesthetic.

My Background

 

I graduated in Architecture from the Politecnico di Milano and obtained a PhD in Architectural Design from the University of Naples Federico II.

​

I have collaborated with architectural practices, including Bernardo Secchi's, and further developed my architectural education by participating in international design workshops led by Gonçalo Byrne.

​

I worked in London for several years, focusing on the design and renovation of residential buildings and interiors.

​

Since 2000, I have been practising as an architect in Milan, focusing on the design and transformation of residential spaces.

 

I am registered with the Order of Architects of Milan.
