Lorenzo Battistelli
AIA
Senior Associate
batistelli@vmdo.com
Inspired by his Italian roots and his abiding interest in architectural history and historic design, Lorenzo Battistelli serves as VMDO’s in-house technical documentation specialist. In this capacity, he provides detailed guidance in executing some of the firm’s most technically complex projects, including the 522,000 SF multi-phased Centennial Village at the University of Miami.
With every project, Lorenzo’s goal is to decipher the building from a detailed physical and digital perspective. His studious inspection of a building allows him to translate it carefully and accurately into a 3D BIM model format. These visualization efforts allow the building’s design to come together in a coordinated document that is as precise as it is thoughtful.
Outside of project work, Lorenzo leads a firmwide task force that constantly analyzes modeling practices within the office and refines documentation standards.
