About

Paolo Zilli started his career at Zaha Hadid Architects in 2001 working on the Salerno Ferry Terminal project. He has collaborated on several projects - including the Afragola-Napoli High Speed Train Station and the National Museum in Rome, MAXXI – growing professionally in the company until reaching the position of Senior Associate in 2015. Zilli has also made his contribution to other projects like the residential towers D’Leedon in Singapore and the Esfera project in Monterrey, Mexico.

Zilli was the Project Director of the Generali Tower and shopping center in CityLife, Milan. The LEED Platinum tower has set new standards for several technical aspects, including glass cold-bending in both single and double façades. Zilli introduced the use of BIM to this project in 2007 to guarantee high levels of accuracy and a comprehensive quality control procedure from the early stages of design. The project was the first in Zaha Hadid Architects’ office to be supported by BIM technology through all stages.

Given his vast experience and competence in construction techniques and software, Zilli is often called to advise within the company and is currently project manager for the new Sydney Airport.
