    Oltre l'Abitare — Beyond Residing

    GDL Edizioni / Macro Edizioni, 2026 — with a foreword by Guglielmo Pelliccioli

    There is an invisible beauty in places. This book ignites the power to see this and reawaken it.

    Oltre l'Abitare further explores the journey embarked on by La vita segreta delle case. On the basis of thoroughgoing research into the relationship between space and wellbeing, with the help of disciplines such as epigenetics and quantum physics, the book responds to a simple and radical question: what would happen if the places we live in were alive, and capable of telling us who we are and helping us become who we want to be?

    A book for residential professionals and anyone wanting to transform the places they live in or care for, starting from a new vision of the relationship between person and place.

    La vita segreta delle case — The Secret Life of Homes

    Macro Edizioni, 2019

    A poetic, scientific, and emotional journey into the heart of homes. The book looks at dwelling from a new perspective, melding design experience, quantum physics and epigenetics to explore just how deeply places can affect the health, feelings, mood and vitality of those who live in them.

    An invitation to look at domestic spaces as living organisms — capable of holding memories, emotions, identities. The book introduces the 3D · 4D · 5D model, the language that structures the entire T-Building system today.
