S7#25 🇺🇸🇬🇧 Itv, "Revealing the character of places, from concept to project" Dario Latrofa

In this episode of COM D’ARCHI, Esther, on behalf of Anne-Charlotte, introduces architect Dario Latrofa, founder of DAIMON Design, based in Grasse, France.

With a European trajectory shaped between Italy, London, Prague and Paris, his work is rooted in a comprehensive approach to architecture — one that brings together culture, technical knowledge and spatial experience.

This episode explores the philosophy behind DAIMON Design, where each project begins with a careful reading of its context. Architecture is approached as a process of revealing what is already there — uncovering the character of a place and translating it into space.

The narrative then focuses on a project in Bari, in southern Italy: Casa Chiancone. A former villa confiscated from the mafia, now transformed into a mixed-use space combining a craft brewery, co-living areas and shared facilities. A project that operates both as architecture and as a social statement.

Through this example, the episode highlights a method that connects analysis, design and transformation — from concept to project.

A clear and engaging episode that shows how architecture can reveal, structure and activate places.
