IOTTI+PAVARANI ARCHITETTI operates within the fields of architecture, urbanism, landscape and research.

The practice is involved in work over a wide range of architectural scales, for both the public and private sectors. Current design and construction projects are spread over a number of different sectors, and they include workplaces (offices and commercial), civic and cultural buildings, sporting, residential, building rehab, urban renewal and landscaping.

The firm is particularly renowned for design of architectures successfully inserted into high environmental value landscapes and townscapes and based on principles of environmental, social and economic sustainability.

The ultimate goal is to identify a strategy involving planning, composition and materials, capable of introducing dense insertions into the landscape, successfully imparting new “energy” to the context in which we are working, “energy” which is consistent with the often unexpressed potential of the setting as a whole.

 

IOTTI+PAVARANI ARCHITETTI was set up in 2001, arising from the pro­fessional partnership of Paolo Iotti and Marco Pavarani. Since its establishment, the firm has received more than 20 awards in architecture and urban design competitions and has gained national and international recognitions through the realization of architectures  which are innovative and surprising and yet appear completely comfortable in their surrounding. 

Among others, in 2011 the practice received the Award as best young Italian talent in architecture by the Renzo Piano Foundation.

IOTTI+PAVARANI ARCHITETTI opera negli ambiti della progettazione architettonica, urbanistica, paesaggistica e della ricerca.

Lo studio è impegnato in progetti dalla scala del design a quella del masterplan, per entrambi i settori, pubblico e privato. Progetti e realizzazioni all'attivo includono luoghi per il lavoro (uffici, spazi commerciali, edifici produttivi), edifici pubblici e spazi per la cultura, edifici sportivi, residenziali, ristrutturazioni, così come piani di recupero urbano e opere di paesaggio.

Lo studio si distingue per la progettazione di architetture felicemente inserite in contesti urbani e paesaggistici ad alto valore ambientale e basate su principi di sostenibilità ambientale, sociale ed economica.

Obiettivo l’individuazione di strategie di programma, compositive, materiche, capaci di produrre inserti densi nel paesaggio, nel tentativo sempre perseguito di conferire nuove “energie” ai contesti in cui si opera, “energie” coerenti con le potenzialità spesso inespresse dei luoghi stessi.

 

IOTTI+PAVARANI ARCHITETTI, costituito nel 2001 da Paolo Iotti e Marco Pavarani, ha ricevuto più di 20 premi in concorsi di architettura e urban design e ha ricevuto riconoscimenti nazionali e internazionali per la realizzazione di architetture innovative e sorprendenti ma al contempo perfettamente inserite nel loro contesto.

Nel 2011 Paolo Iotti e Marco Pavarani hanno ricevuto il Premio della Fondazione Renzo Piano come migliori giovani talenti dell'architettura italiana.
