Paolo Piumatti

Paolo Piumatti is an Associate Professor in the Department of Architecture and Design (DAD) at Politecnico di Torino, Italy, where he is affiliated with the College of Architecture and Design. His academic focus lies in architectural drawing, digital representation, and heritage modeling, with a strong emphasis on Building Information Modelling (BIM) and its applications in cultural heritage. He teaches both undergraduate and graduate courses, including 'Architectural Drawing and Survey Laboratory' and 'Point Clouds and HBIM' in the Master's program 'Architecture for Heritage'.

His research centers on Building Information Modelling (BIM), interoperability, architectural and urban surveying, and representation techniques. These interests are closely tied to the digital documentation and conservation of architectural heritage. He is a member of the MULTIMEDIALab – Multimedia Laboratory within the Department of Architecture and Design, which supports digital innovation in architectural research and education.

The most recent publications reflect a dual focus: one on cultural heritage conservation—particularly industrial heritage, royal residences of Savoy, and vineyard landscapes—and another on environmental technology, such as aerosol science and air quality. These works demonstrate his interdisciplinary approach, bridging architectural documentation with environmental and public health concerns.

Paolo Piumatti has served as Scientific Manager for the commercial research project 'Filming and possible post-production for the series: PORTRAITS - Architects and architectures of the second half of the twentieth century in Turin and Piedmont' (2022–2023), highlighting his engagement in public-facing scholarly initiatives. He has no listed scientific awards or students in the provided text.

He is actively involved in curriculum development and instruction, with continuous teaching responsibilities from 2019/20 through the 2025/26 academic year, indicating sustained academic leadership and pedagogical commitment.
