Marco Terranova, architect and carpenter born Sicilian in 1974, graduates in Venice in 1999 at IUAV. He spends his entire professional life dealing with sustainable design issues through projects, building sites and educational activities. Since 2012 he designs and self-builds with wood and natural materials, often through “design by doing” participatory processes. He developed a problem solving and collaborative attitude thanks to intensive sites in Italy and abroad (Paris, Barcelona, Amsterdam, Stuttgart, Burkina Faso). Since 2016 he’s the director in charge for the building section of Periferica design summer Festival. In 2017 he joins Lemur, a Barcelona based association that, starting from a body awareness approach, deals with the re-design and transformation of uncomfortable environments and public spaces. Together with Alice, Concetto and Emanuele he’s the founder of Todo, a collective of designers and craftsmen to support urban regeneration processes and actions. www.senzastudio.com
