Architecture.
Landscape.
Ecology.

More than twenty-five years of study, interwoven with practice and international experience. Paolo Capece has devoted his professional journey to bringing ecology, architecture, agronomy and landscape together. His studies in Japan are part of the education that has informed his independent practice since 2004.

Landscape is a living part of the design: it informs decisions, accompanies architecture and evolves over time. The Studio translates this approach into villas, farmhouses, parks, gardens and interiors.

One journey.
Many perspectives.

Paolo Capece’s education spans ecology, agronomy, architecture and landscape. Study runs alongside practice and international experience, including Shimane University in Japan and the University of Reading in the United Kingdom.

The experience of Japan informs a way of looking: at solid and void, the continuity between inside and outside, the changing seasons. These considerations find their own expression in Sardinia, through its light, stone and Mediterranean vegetation.

THE PEOPLE

Designing together.
Growing over time.

Architects, agronomists and urban planners work with structural engineers, geologists and other practices. A stable team, with employees and collaborations that have grown over the years, some for more than a decade. The pleasure of working together, mutual understanding and continuity support every project.

Some clients return after twenty years. Revisiting a home, a garden and the people who live there means following a project through the life that unfolds after construction.
