He has been practicing in many countries: Australia, Switzerland, USA, Senegal, Ghana, Singapore, Hong Kong, Libya and Oman.
At the basis of Ottavio Di Blasi’s practice are a number of long-term goals that set the quality in the design process: designing high quality architectural objects always associated to social and cultural significance.
Promoting the design process as a humanistic synthesis between technical, economical and socio-cultural issues always putting the human being at the center; implementing the progress of the construction techniques through the use of innovative technologies and the search for meaningful implementation details; develop conscious projects that put in first place the planet’s energy and environmental issues; encourage through the rehabilitation and the transformation of the historic building artifacts inspiring the reuse and the layering of significance.
