Italian architect and professor Niccolo Casas is Principal and Founder at Niccolo Casas Architecture, a visiting faculty member at RISD Rhode Island School of Design, and a Ph.D. candidate at The Bartlett UCL London. He runs a multidisciplinary practice for research and architecture that aims to combine several fields of specialization so as to offer an innovative and unique vision of the academic discipline and profession. Casas’s work spans architecture to couture and fashion-tech and design to data visualization and medicine. He has collaborated with—among others— the fashion designer Iris Van Herpen, the fashion-tech designer Anouk Wipprecht, the entertainment company Cirque du Soleil, the automotive companies Volkswagen and BMW, the multinational software and electronic corporations Intel and Autodesk, the 3D-printing companies Materialise and 3D Systems, the MIT research team EmbrLabs and the sports firm Sequoia. He has also participated in the National Academy Keck Futures Initiative (NAKFI) where, as co-investigator, he was awarded $150,000 for interdisciplinary projects at the intersection of science, art, engineering and medicine. Casas received his Master’s in Architecture at ISA St. Luc in Bruxelles, and for four years, he has been a Professor at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Bologna. In 2013, 2018, and 2019, he was a visiting professor at Texas A&M School of Architecture. In addition, he has taught and lectured at the Università degli Studi di Genova, Università degli Studi di Firenze, London South Bank University, The Bartlett School of Architecture at University College of London, Portsmouth University, Florida International University, and SCI-Arc. Casas’ work has been exhibited worldwide, and it is part of the “(En)Coding Architecture” book, edited by Liss C. Werner, “Naturalis Architecture,” edited by Professor Frédéric Migayrou and Marie-Ange Brayer, the Wiley AD issue “3D Body Architecture”, edited by Neil Leach and Behnaz Farahi, “Histoire des Modes et du Vêtement, du Moyen Âge au XXIe siècle,” edited by Denis Bruna and Chloé Demey, and the recently released “The Blindspot Initiative: Design Resistance and Alternative Modes of Practice,” edited by Jose Sanchez.
