Architects Carlo Cappai and Maria Alessandra Segantini, are co-founding principals of C+S Architects, with offices in London (UK) and Treviso (IT), since 1994. Their innovative and inquisitive approach to design, forward- looking but sensitive —unique in its pursuit
of expansion of the active role of designers in society, through new technical and material possibilities, combined with the sensitivity towards heritage and community engagement— have distinguished them as leading architects of their generation.

Drawing insight from ecological systems and translating the traces of tangible and intangible heritages, they create striking places that connect people with each other and communities with the environment. Carlo and Maria Alessandra name this approach to design TranslationArchitecture in search to find a new Aequilibrium between the built and unbuilt environment.
