Speaker:
Architect Francesca Perani shares how working with limited budgets and compact spaces can spark bold and imaginative design. Her approach challenges traditional spatial norms through material experimentation, diagonal forms, and expressive textures. With a strong emphasis on storytelling and photography, she crafts emotionally rich environments that blend past and present in unexpected ways.
Francesca Perani is an Italian architect and creative activist known for bold, unconventional design and a strong graphic sensibility. With international experience and a background in architecture and visual communication, she leads FrancescaPeraniEnterprise and co-founded initiatives like REBELARCHITETTE and CUTOUTMIX to promote inclusivity and female representation in architecture.
