“A specialization academy that focuses on the rational use of resources for zero impact buildings”.
“Never before has there been a talk of sustainability in these years. But in many cases, the dissemination in culture does not coincide with a real culture and practice», as summarized by the architect Mario Cucinella, considered as an industry leader with international awards and projects ranging from the Green School for the Middle East to the 5 thousand sqm of Arpae di Ferrara head office. «Once again the role of education is decisive, we want today!s citizens, but above all those of tomorrow, to be aware that sustainability is not only about the environment, but also about the economy and society». For this reason, the architect promoted the SOS – School of Sustainability, a post-graduate specialization academy that focuses on the functional use of zero-emission buildings, like the projects of his MC A studio.
