Francesco Carofiglio

Italian architect, writer and director

Francesco Carofiglio belongs to the record of architecture as a figure whose buildings outlasted the taste that commissioned them.

The record lists Francesco Carofiglio as Italian architect, writer and director.

Francesco Carofiglio was born at Bari in 1964. His recorded nationality is Italy. He trained at University of Florence.

Contemporary practice is global, computational and preoccupied with energy: the profession's central question is now what a building costs the climate.

He is recorded as architect and writer.

Architecture is the art that cannot be avoided: people live inside the argument.

That the work was built in Italy shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.

Francesco Carofiglio is still practising, and the body of work is not yet complete.
