Davide Macullo (b. Giornico, CH, 1965) lives and works in Lugano, Switzerland. He studied art, architecture, and interior design.
For 20 years (1990–2010), he was a project architect in the atelier of Mario Botta, overseeing more than 200 international projects. In 2000, he established his own atelier and has since completed around 800 projects in 49 countries.
The ethos of the studio is to “draw from context,” fostering a dialogue between the specificity of each project and the universality of its surroundings. The studio’s approach to spatial psychology prioritizes human ecology and a conscious design philosophy, emphasizing the power of space to evoke emotions and strengthen the connection between humans and nature.



Where the architecture community comes together to share ideas and inspiration, learn and celebrate excellence in architecture.
