Picture of Fedele CanosaHaving begun his studies at the IUAV (Instituto Universitario di Architettura di Venezia) Fedele graduated in 2000 with cum laude honours at the Delft University of Technology and worked at Schrauwen Architecten in Amsterdam before joining Mecanoo in 2004.

Fedele is an inquisitive and original architect who excels at translating complex visions into clear and coherent concepts with descriptive visuals (both hand drawn and digital) to facilitate active dialogue and engagement. In addition to large scale libraries and office buildings, Fedele has been involved in the design of vocational colleges as well as innovative university buildings where he has been able to forge multi-modal learning environments that enhance student-tostudent and student-to-teacher collaborations.

As a library design specialist, Fedele has extensive knowledge in the creation of learning environments for all ages and across a wide range of user groups. Fedele's extensive knowledge of state-of-the-art library technologies has made him a valuable member on numerous library projects including the Library of Birmingham, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library and New York Public Library. Working alongside Mecanoo’s local partner, Sasaki, Fedele developed the interior concept for the historically significant Bruce C. Bolling Municipal Building in Boston, US.
