Summary
Alessio Erioli is a Principal and Cofounder of Co-de-iT and a Senior Researcher and lecturer at the University of Bologna, blending over 25 years of academic and practice-led experience at the intersection of computation, fabrication and architectural design. With a PhD in Building Engineering and an MArch in Biodigital Architecture, he investigates autonomy, intelligence and agency as design media, translating theory into built and digitally fabricated experiments in fiber-composites, continuous tectonics and emergent systems. He has advised 50+ master theses and taught internationally at institutions like IaaC and École des Ponts, bringing a research-driven pedagogy to professional projects. Technically fluent in Rhinoceros, Grasshopper and C#, Alessio bridges coding and craft to integrate computational aesthetics with material performance. Notably, his practice functions as a connectivity hub—pairing multidisciplinary teams to realize projects that embed active agency in the artifact rather than treating computation as mere ornament.
