Arturo Tedeschi (born 24 April 1979) is an Italian architect, computational designer and writer. He's the founder and creative director of the architecture practice and design consulting A>T which promotes a new kind of algorithmic-based design.[1] His design approach includes techniques such as Algorithms-Aided Design (AAD), CNC milling, robotic milling, 3D printing,[2] artificial intelligence, virtual reality.[3]

Biography

Arturo Tedeschi started his career in 2004, combining professional practice in Italy with a personal research on algorithms-aided design, focusing on relationships between architecture and emerging technologies. In 2010 he published Architettura Parametrica,[4] a technical book on computational design translated into English as Parametric Architecture with Grasshopper.[5] In the same year he worked at Zaha Hadid Architects in London. in 2011 he founds the office A>T starting an intense activity both as a designer and consultant for leading firms and industries (architecture, furniture, fashion, footwear, automotive). Among his projects: NU:S Installation at Chiostro Del Bramante (Roma, 2012),[6] Parametric Shoes (Roma, 2012) a project that pushed the boundaries of 3D printing applied to fashion design,[7] The CloudBridge (2013),[8][9] Ilabo Shoes with Ross Lovegrove (Milano, 2015),[10] In-Formation with Ross Lovegrove (Koln, 2017), Needle Watch (2017),[11] Transmission at Victoria and Albert Museum with Ross Lovegrove (London, 2017),[12] Fessura wall system (Milano, 2017),[13] Alcantara Corner Lounges for Audi with Lovegrove and Colombo (Milano, 2017),[14] Oyster Chair (Milano, 2018),[15] Iris Concept Car (2020)[16][17], Passerella, a new tram for Milano (2020)[18][19][20][21][22]. In 2014 he published AAD Algorithms-Aided Design[23], a reference book on algorithmic modelling based on the Grasshopper platform. In 2019 he has been appointed Italian Design Ambassador for the Sydney Design festival within the Italian Design Day 2019[24]

Teaching

Since 2011 Arturo Tedeschi has been an invited lecturer at universities and conferences worldwide. He taught and lectured at Politecnico di Milano, Architectural Association School of Architecture in London,[25] ISCTE-IUL Lisbon, University of Sydney, Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation, University of Edinburgh[26], IUAV Venezia[27], University of Arkansas Rome Center, Universidad Europea (Madrid)[28]. Since 2018 he explored new modes of learning and online teaching.
