PROFILE

Who we are, what we do, how we innovate day by day

The Building Design Study Center - CSPE - was founded in Florence in 1975 and deals with the development of research, studies, planning and consultancy in the sector of health and social interventions.
Since 1999, the founding members have been joined by architects Giulio Felli, Corrado Lupatelli and Manola Caruso as Technical Directors.

CSPE has specialized experience of integrated design in both public and social healthcare sectors as well as community facilities.
Work in the field of research, design and construction management for the development of highly complex projects, coordinating all phases of the conception, implementation and management process, ensuring integration and interoperability with Building Information Modeling approaches.
Thanks to consolidated experience in the management of the entire building process, the group has developed and coordinated large-scale interventions which involved both urban and building ‘refunctionalizations’ and reorganizations and new construction.


With a continuous spirit of disciplinary rebuilding, for over thirty years, CSPE's design experiences have arisen from research that combines innovation and experimentation with the aim of redefining the relationships between technology, functionality and aesthetics.
Research has characterized the evolution of the studio with a continuous and constant commitment: in the early years, it represented a solid basis for cultural investigation which, in more mature years, found opportunities for verification and interaction with the ever-increasing design opportunities.
Over the years, CSPE, for the quality of its research and achievements, has received important recognition from international institutions such as the European Community, the World Health Organization and UNESCO.
