Overview
Responsibilities
Federico is a Reader in Architecture Design and Urban Design at the WSA, a European researcher, and an award-winning practitioner. He is also the Course Director of the Masters of Architecture Design (MA AD). Federico graduated from the ETSAM (Madrid, Spain) in 1998. In 2007/2008, he was awarded the Rome Prize in Architecture by the Royal Spanish Academy of Rome. He owns a European PhD (Doctor Europaeus), which he completed during his year in Rome at Roma Tre University (Italy) and the ETSAM School of Architecture of Madrid (Spain) and was supervised at Paris-Belleville University (France). He has been recently awarded the Europa Nostra Grand Prix 2019 and the Europa Nostra 2019, the most prestigious European award in Heritage preservation, for his restoration of the Oratory of the Partal Palace, a 14th C. Mosque in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Alhambra (Granada, Spain).
His work in the UK began in 2012 when he was a Visiting Teacher at the Architectural Association (AA) in London. Then, in March 2013, he joined the WSA as a Marie Curie Intra European Fellowship (IEF) Postdoctoral Senior Researcher leading the EMUVE European Project. His European research project, EMUVE (Euro-Mediterranean Urban Voids Ecology) was funded by the European Commission with 220,000 Euros. EMUVE focuses on searching for innovative design methodologies for re-activating urban landscapes in crisis, from the 2008 Economic downturn to the current migrant and refugee crisis.
His practice, W+G Architects, has been awarded 10 first prizes in International Architecture competitions. His projects have addressed a wide range of issues, from public spaces (Eras, Forum) and heritage (Restoration of a 14th. C. mosque in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Alhambra, Spain) to cooperation projects in developing countries (Ethiopia, Morocco), funded by the Spanish Cooperation and Development Agency (AECID).

Biography
Dr Federico Wulff Barreiro is a Reader in Architecture and Urban Design at the Welsh School of Architecture (WSA), a European-funded senior researcher and an award-winning practitioner in contemporary architectural design and heritage preservation.
He holds both the Europa Nostra Grand Prix 2019 and the Europa Nostra 2019 awards for the Restoration of the 14thC. Palatine mosque of the Oratory of the Partal Palace in the Alhambra of Granada (Spain), UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Europa Nostra Grand Prix, promoted by the European Commission (EU), is the most prestigious award in architectural heritage at the European Level. The Alhambra UNESCO Worldwide Heritage Site is a world-renowned heritage site in Spain and one of the most visited worldwide.
Dr Federico Wulff's practice, W+G Architects, has won 10 first prizes and one mention award in international architectural and urban design competitions in Spain, Chile, and Morocco.
He has received the Rome Prize in Architecture from the Royal Spanish Academy of Rome (RAER).
He has co-authored five books, nine chapters of books, and 30 articles in top-ranked peer-reviewed journals in international architecture and urban design, such as Urban Design International (UK), Metalocus (Spain), Agathon (Italy), Urban Design and Planning (UK), Built Heritage (China), Paisea (Spain), C3 (Korea), L'Architecture du Maroc (Morocco), and Arquitectura Ibérica (Portugal), amongst others.
His design, research, and teaching work have been exhibited at 21 international exhibitions in the UK, Spain, Chile, Italy, Morocco, and Brazil. His EMUVE (Euro-Mediterranean Urban Voids Ecology) European research project was exhibited at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2016.
He is the Course Director of the Masters of Architecture Design (MA AD) at the WSA.
He founded his practice W+G Architects in 2007, together with Dr Melina Guirnaldos.
The aim of W+G Architects has been to develop design and strategic projects in five design research fields:
1. Post-crisis reactivation strategies at architectural and urban scales
2. Contemporary approaches to heritage preservation and recycling
3. Landscape recovery interventions in cooperation projects in developing countries
4. Socially-inclusive and Intercultural Public Spaces
5. Contemporary domestic spaces and micro-architecture
Our conceptual research has informed the exploration of new design methodologies for addressing contemporary challenges. In addition, our design processes aim to be defined as research, with further theorisation within a rich and creative dialectic relation between theory, practice, users, and context. This complex iteractive process constitutes the essential framework of our practice and academic research. Thus, our conceptual and practice-based research has become highly adaptive to very different geographical, conceptual and socio-economic contexts, such as our research on reactivation strategies for crisis contexts in Western Europe, our cooperation projects in Africa, the inclusive and intercultural public spaces in Europe and our preservation projects on medieval hispano-Muslim heritage sites. Finally, I would like to highlight the urban regeneration master plan of Bulnes Avenue urban district of Santiago de Chile (Chile), awarded with the Special Mention of the jury on an International Competition promoted by the Government of Chile.
Among the projects of urban landscape reactivation, we would highlight the public spaces Eras and Forum (Spain), both selected at the VI European Biennial of Landscape Architecture of Barcelona (Spain) and the Biennale of Architecture of Sao Paolo (Brazil).
The most important cooperation projects related to contemporary interventions in heritage contexts and social inclusion are the Landscape Intervention and Restoration of the 17th-century Palace of the Emperor Susenyos and the Jesuit Cathedral of Ethiopia in Danqaz (Ethiopia), funded by the Spanish Cooperation Agency (AECID), and the Landscape Recovery of the Caves of Hercules site, in Tangiers (Morocco), funded by the European Union (EU Interreg programme).
