Her fascination with Ai generative tools has driven her to employ them in crafting inventive design concepts over the past year. Her work has garnered global recognition and she has collaborated with various institutions and universities, sharing her expertise on integrating AI into the architecture and design processes.

Laura Civetti is a Fashion tech designer who has made significant contributions to the fashion industry. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Interior Design from IED (Istituto Europeo di Design) in Milan, where she conducted thesis research on Eco-Yacht design. In 2018, Laura attended the Fabricademy Barcelona from FAB LAB and in 2023, she completed her Master’s in Science in Computational and Advanced design at DesignMorphine. Laura’s professional journey started as an intern at the Iris Van Herpen Atelier in Amsterdam, after which she worked at Noumena Group. During her years at Noumena, she was the head fashion tech designer, working on design research projects aimed at material development and additive manufacturing for the body. She also coordinated the Reshape design platform, a design contest, and an event that seeks emerging designers for future industries. In 2020, Laura joined Materfad-Centre of Materials Barcelona as a Project manager to support companies in the research and development of new materials. Laura is a Senior designer at Nagami, fostering the link between computational design and additive manufacturing. Her expertise lies in material development and additive manufacturing for the body and she is a content author for material innovation in educational programs at School of Wrad. She also coordinated the Reshape design platform, a design contest, and an event that seeks emerging designers for future industries. In 2020, Laura joined Materfad-Centre of Materials Barcelona as a Project manager to support companies in the research and development of new materials.

Filippo Nassetti is an artist and computational designer. The research agenda he advances, Postnatural Design, focuses on exploring the visual languages and project opportunities that emerge from challenging traditional oppositions such as natural and artificial, digital and material, human and non-human. Working between scales and crossing disciplines such as architecture, product, and landscape design relates to research on organic form, computational methods, new media, and advanced manufacturing technologies. Soon after graduating in Architecture, Filippo started operating independently, and throughout the years, the practice engaged with a broad portfolio of projects that included commissions, grants, research activities, and consultancy. In 2012, he co-founded MHOX, an EU-funded research practice and start-up focused on the design of radical artifacts and wearable products through computational techniques and 3d printing. The contribution of MHOX to generative design gained international recognition through many experimental projects, such as Collagen, Carapace and Superabundance Masks, Generative Orthoses, ENEA walking sticks, and the design of prostheses. In 2015, Filippo joined Zaha Hadid Architects, initially as part of the Computation and Design team (ZH CODE), then of Zaha Hadid Design (ZHD), where he was responsible for computational design.In the eight years he was part of the practice, he led and completed several ZHD projects where computation played a central role. These experiences ranged from the design of both sculptural and functional products to experimental installations, projection mappings, and interior designs. Since 2016, he has taught at UCL at the Bartlett School of Architecture as part of the MArch Urban Design, a postgraduate program focused on computational design, co-leading the Research Cluster 16 through a research-based teaching methodology. Filippo’s independent work has been published and exhibited internationally. He lectured at The Royal College of Arts (London), China Central Academy of Fine Arts (Beijing), and Florida International University (Miami), among others; exhibited at Centre Pompidou (Paris), Design Museum (London), Bozar Centre (Bruxelles); his work was featured on The New York Times, International Herald Tribune, Dezeen, Designboom, Wired Italia.
