	Ilaria Mazzoleni, Architetto, LEED AP Ilaria holds a Bachelor or Architecture degree from the Polytechnic of Milan, Italy, and a Master of Building Science from the University of Southern California School of Architecture and has also spent a year studying in Valencia, Spain, on an Erasmus scholarship. Over the last ten years, Mazzoleni has investigated issues of sustainable architecture and building technologies, and has participated on international conference on the subject. Her later academic and professional research focuses on Biomimicry: Innovation in Architecture Inspired by Nature.
		Open Collaborations
		Roberto Davolio, Form and Structure Roberto's working process strives to use cutting edge technologies to design building envelopes that reflect innovative formal expressions and deliver structural as well as environmental performance programs with focus on the analysis, development and integration of structural systems with complex spatial configurations. Roberto holds a MS in Advanced Architectural Design from Columbia University, a Diploma in Architecture from Bertlett School of Architecture in London and a BS in Architecture from Universisty of Venezia.

		Shauna Price, Evolutionary Biologist Using the strengths of their different backgrounds, Price and Mazzoleni have been collaborating on design projects based on the concepts of interconnectedness and interdependencies of life. They explore the relationships between urbanity and natural ecosystems, how the cycles of nature can inform ideas about urban communities and sustainable living, and strive to make visible the relationships between seemingly disconnected things. Shauna received her BS degree in Zoology from The Ohio State University. She is currently working on her PhD in evolutionary biology at UCLA. Her research focuses on the coevolution between hosts and parasites, using a South American ant species and fungal parasites that infect the ant. http://www.ioe.ucla.edu/CTR/staff/Price_Shauna.html
