CE-A studio is an architecture practice based in Milan (Italy) whose major
interest is addressed to the relationship between open spaces and buildings.
Established in 2007 by Carlo Ezechieli, CE-A studio developed landscape
architecture and architecture projects both in Italy, with projects such as the initial masterplan for the Milan 2015 Expo Park, and abroad after winning the international competition for a new park in Chengdu, China.
Philosophy
“A real lawn stretches down to the center of the Earth” this quote from the Swiss master Luigi Snozzi gives a gist of the depth the relationship with the site may reach. Our design approach starts from a thorough conceptual work and uses architecture to translate into form and matter the hidden and unfathomably deep relational system involved by the design process. Targeting with a similar approach projects ranging from small-scale open spaces to large masterplans, our aim is to propose a different, and more conscious way of perceiving our surrounding environment.

Carlo Ezechieli. Principal, Graduated in architecture from Politecnico di Milano, Italy. In 1997, soon after graduation, wins a training and research grant at the MIT School of Architecture and Planning, Cambridge, Massachusetts. Following the courses of the nearby Harvard Graduate School of Design leads him towards the subject of landscape architecture. Back in Italy, gets a Ph.D. in architecture and starts his own activity as an architect. From 2015 Carlo Ezechieli is Scientific Director of the Milan-based IoArch architectural magazine, and he was also Adjunct Professor of Landscape Architecture at Politecnico di Milano.
