Carlo Gaspari (Chieti 1980). After graduating from (IUAV) in 2006, I joined Hall Mc Knight Architects in Belfast with whom I collaborated on several private residential projects in Northern Ireland.
In 2009, called by David Chipperfield Architects studio, I moved to Milan and started a collaboration working on national and international projects and competitions in Italy and in the Mediterranean Area.
In 2012, I founded the GCA studio focusing my research and my objectives on public scale projects.In 2016, driven by the call of my native land, I moved to Abruzzo to follow the recovery projects of the historical heritage and the realization of public utility works.

MISSION
Architectural heritage recovery projects and public projects represent the main themes on which I focus my design research, my work, and my future goals.
Abruzzo represents my land, the place where I grew up, the emotional space on which I continually find myself operating.
I believe in the ethical and cultural value of the recovery of old houses, in the villages and in the rural landscape, as a form of redemption and response to depopulation, generating new social relationships through the presence of "new inhabitants" in respect of the local material culture.
My research also focuses on the redevelopment of public space and construction of buildings of public utility, intended as a possibility to improve the space as a place for sharing and renewal of the city, ethical and cultural ambition.
