Carlo Ratti Associati is a Turin-based international design and innovation studio led by architect, engineer, and MIT professor Carlo Ratti. Operating at the crossroads of architecture, urban planning, and digital technology, the practice explores how emerging tech reshapes the built environment and everyday life. The studio’s projects span from responsive buildings and urban infrastructures to experimental installations and strategic masterplans. Known for integrating sensors, data, and interactivity into architecture, Carlo Ratti Associati promotes a vision of the city as an open, adaptive system. Key works include Greenary, a private residence built around a 10-meter ficus tree near Parma, which exemplifies the studio’s focus on blending natural and digital ecologies. With a portfolio that merges research, storytelling, and spatial innovation, the studio continues to challenge conventional approaches to space and sustainability.
