Stefano Corbo is an Italian architect, researcher, and educator at TU Delft's Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment – Group of Public Building. He holds a PhD and an M.Arch II in Advanced Architectural Design from ETSAM (Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid). Before joining TU Delft, he taught at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and at other institutions across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. He leads SCSTUDIO, a multidisciplinary practice focused on public architecture that treats architecture as a collective form of knowledge, combining speculative research with professional practice to examine the spatial and aesthetic conditions of late-capitalist architectural production.
Corbo has written books: Entre Esferas y Atmósferas: La Arquitectura como Interfaz (Ediciones Asimétricas, 2024); Exteriorless: Form, Space, and Urbanities of Neoliberalism (Routledge, 2023); Notes from the Underworld: An Architectural Exploration (Schiffer, 2019); Interior Landscapes: A Visual Atlas (Images, 2016); and From Formalism to Weak Form: The Architecture and Philosophy of Peter Eisenman (Ashgate/Routledge, 2014).
He has contributed to journals including Domus, OASE, Mark, ArchDaily, Drawing Matter, arq: Architectural Research Quarterly, PLOT, and CLOG.
EXTERIORLESS is the term Corbo coined to investigate the condition of logistics infrastructures, a spatial byproduct that signifies the entanglement of capitalism and society. However gloomy, the analysis Corbo offers is meant as groundwork for action, not resignation.
