LFSN – Livio Ficarra Silvia Nardi Architects

LFSN is an architecture and interior design firm founded in 2009 by Livio Ficarra and Silvia Nardi in the hearth of Sicily. Anticipating more than a decade, the smart working era, where it’s no longer strictly needed to be in major city to have the opportunity to be involved in big projects, LFSN team thinks that projects never are too big or too small, too easy or too difficult, too close or too far: method, know-how and passion are the keys to deal with any project.

Thanks to a wide range of international collaborations LFSN has gained a solid know-how, mainly in hospitality and shipbuilding fields, developing a tailored and specialized approach: every single work is unique and is conceived and built around client and projects, it’s able to tell a story and, at the same time, to pay attention to owner specifical requirements.

LFSN works have won competitions and have been exhibited and published in the specialist press, since 2010 when LFSN has been included in the 20 best Italian under 35 architectural practices in “young Italian architect” competition and won the award “Selinunte sezione Young Italian Architects”. Recently LFSN won the competition for the Flora theater in Floridia and LFSN projects have been published on the websites of THE PLAN, INTERNI, AREA, IoArch, and on the book “Panorama Italiano vol.5” published by THE PLAN.
