Openfabric is a landscape architecture and urbanism practice operating internationally. It is led by landscape architect Francesco Garofalo (Founder) and Architect/Urbanist Jacopo Gennari Feslikenian (Director). Openfabric design public spaces at multiple scales. Openfabric is based in Rotterdam (NL) and Milan (IT). Openfabric focus on urban and rural geographies, investigating the global implications of urbanisation. Responding to the large variety of possibilities that the intersection of city, society and nature creates, Openfabric projects cover several fields of action. They range from urban installations through public space design, to large landscape strategic plans; waterfronts, campuses, squares, streetscapes, parks, and playgrounds.We cover the many facets of public realm processes with our experience and by involving in our team, for each project, specialists from other fields of expertise.

Openfabric work has been awarded and widely exhibited, from Triennale di Milano, AIA New York to Matadero Madrid, COAC Barcelona and to the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale ‘Fundamentals’. Openfabric members are invited to lecture internationally on a continuous base, including lecturing and guest critic at MIT (Cambridge MA), Cornell University (Ithaca, NY), Genoa University of Architecture (Genoa, Italy), Master of Human Settlements KU Leuven (Leuven, Belgium), TU Delft (Delft, the Netherlands), and teaching at Politecnico di Milano (Milan, Italy), Amsterdam Academie van Bouwkunst (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), RAoB (Rotterdam, the Netherlands).
