Although my studies and travels took me around the world, across Europe, Asia, North America and the Emirates, I have always been especially riveted by this first landscape. At the Polytechnic of Milan (Architecture and Urban Studies) and the University of Illinois at Chicago (Landscape Urbanism, MA), I considered the landscape at an urban scale. Much of my work centered on urban voids: how the landscape can “stitch” damaged or abandoned sites to the rest of the city. After five years spend designing vast cities from the ground up at SOM Chicago, I embarked upon a specialization course in Landscape Design and Horticulture at the L’Ecole Nationale Supérieure du Paysage of Versailles. My attentions essentially inverted, I pursued a line of study that augmented my expansive training with an intimate understanding of landscape at the smallest scale. 
Immersion in the ground, itself, along with meticulous detailing studies and small-scale construction projects aligned my work with Land Art. As a dominant form of contemporary landscape architecture, I envision the ideas underpinning much of Land Art being played out on a grand scale, as evidenced by much of SOM’s city building projects. Above all, my time at Versailles reinforced my belief that an effective plan should be, at once, visible from above and sensible to the man on the ground. Sustanibility Sustainability, in every sense of the word, is the driving principle of my practice. At Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, I directed a diverse and often far-flung team of designers. Projects ranged widely in scope, from working with existing conditions to creating new topography – and even new land, outright. My international experience and fluency in Italian and English and a little bit of French, allows me to effectively communicate, collaborate with and assemble interdisciplinary teams of talented designers from across the globe. With offices in Brescia, my main studio is located in a converted industrial building located 20 minutes from the city. Surrounded by mountains and swathed with light, the open studio hosts visiting designers and artists on a regular basis, an ideal space for collaborative work. Without being remote, the mountain studio serves as a creative retreat from the extreme connectedness of contemporary urban life and technology. <img width="1080" height="1080" width_o="1080" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e2f639687d27330a7c63924aa4ba7e802d90306fdb68ce2ffed07d79de77dced/Sustanibility-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" data-mid="110064969" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e2f639687d27330a7c63924aa4ba7e802d90306fdb68ce2ffed07d79de77dced/Sustanibility-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" /> <img width="1488" height="1190" width_o="1488" height_o="1190" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5b70125d78ccaffa871af1b7442a39344d920edceedd5d37180b4d4a5a2b72a1/Scalability-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" data-mid="110065164" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5b70125d78ccaffa871af1b7442a39344d920edceedd5d37180b4d4a5a2b72a1/Scalability-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" /> Scalability My interest in the shape and effects of landscape is comprehensive. From the broad organizational strokes of a new city plan to the circulation patterns among a city’s carefully positioned pocket parks, to the smallest plant specimen in a skyscraper’s interior courtyard, curiosity and feeling drive my work in the studio as well as in the field. I have worked at every scale.
 For any project, whether it be a tabula rasa urban plan in Western China or a postcard study of seasonal ground cover in Lombardy’s Prealps, the first phase of my design process is intensive research. I spend hours at the site, taking notes, photographing, observing, learning the history of the site, mapping the existing elements on the ground and developing an understanding of how people experience these aspects of the space. I seek to find how everything is interconnected around a site, and to develop a design or plan that articulates these connections. Often, this pattern or natural logic determines the overarching plan, to be formally restated at every scale of the project. https://elenastevanato.it/Contact Tue, 01 Jun 2021 10:35:40 +0000 Elena Stevanato https://elenastevanato.it/Contact <img width="1350" height="1080" width_o="1350" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e06d713d5654b40420334258f2a809647a0fa8fe09143f7e4d62b1cc19919e5e/Office-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" data-mid="111615728" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e06d713d5654b40420334258f2a809647a0fa8fe09143f7e4d62b1cc19919e5e/Office-Elena-Stevanato.jpg" /> OFFICEVia Angelo Grazioli 23/d25063 Gardone Val TrompiaBrescia – IT (at Officina Liberty) Google Maps CONTACTinfo@elenastevanato.it+39 393 9786976 INFORMATIONVAT 03350320986Registred Architect Brescia n. 2977 https://elenastevanato.it/All-projects Tue, 01 Jun 2021 10:14:46 +0000 Elena Stevanato https://elenastevanato.it/All-projects https://elenastevanato.it/Garden Tue, 01 Jun 2021 12:25:01 +0000 Elena Stevanato https://elenastevanato.it/Garden
