At Hugh Broughton Architects Gianluca has been directly involved in a large number of the practice projects at all stages, and in particular he has led the successful extension of the National Galleries of Scotland’s Public Affairs and Building departments, and the award-winning Maidstone Museum’s East Wing. He has also been an active member of the design teams developing the firm’s ‘extreme environments’ projects, most recently the Atmospheric Watch Observatory for the US National Science Foundation and a new health facility for the island of Tristan da Cunha, in the South Atlantic. More recently Gianluca led the project for a new visitors' centre and archive for the Henry Moore Foundation at Perry Green.
Within the practice Gianluca has particular responsibility for competition submissions and office management, including the administration of the practice's ISO9001 accredited quality system.
