Biography

Born in 1966, Architect, Master degree in Architecture at Politecnico di Torino with Roberto Gabetti, Phd in Architecture and Construction with Aimaro Isola. Founder of community architecture & planning office Avventura Urbana in 1992 that he leaves in 2011 with his partner Isabelle Toussaint to found TRA_Toussaint Robiglio Architetti. Thanks to a German Marshall Fund 2015 Fellowship, he started to research on adaptive reuse in the US and Europe, publishing the book Re–USA: 20 American Stories of Adaptive Reuse: A Toolkit for Post-Industrial Cities. In the last years, this became the focus both of its research and practice, with projects in Italy – as the reause of a XIXth century estate as ESCP University Campus – and Belgium – as the transformation of the Grande Carrière Wincqz in a professional training center for stone industry workers, on which the editor Prismes published the book Past to Future. He is currently engaged in the reuse of the Cavallerizza Reale di Torino, in the team led by architects Lacaton&Vassal. Full professor of architectural and urban design at Polito / DAD, he founded in 2017 the interdiscipilnary research center FULL, that he led up to 2021 – the results of his four years of mandate are published a report, outlining new possible research track between architecture and engineering. He is founder of the polito spin-off benefit company Homes4All, promoting privately funded social housing in Italy, and president of the Impact Housing Foundation, promoting the culture of social impact investment in real estate in European networks.
