STRATEGIE DI RIQUALIFICAZIONE E RIGENERAZIONE URBANA

The course aims to introduce the mature student to a field of research and professional practice that responds to the needs of the renewed profile of the architect in contemporary society in which the paradigm of sustainability constitutes the reference framework. The construction of the city on top of the city has always been present in the professional activity of the designer, declined from time to time as renovation, reuse, recovery, redevelopment, regeneration.

In the current phase, particularly in the European context, the aspect related to the existing urban heritage plays a central role in the European and national urban agenda in which the priorities are the fight against poverty, spatial and social segregation, the reduction of land consumption, the adaptation of cities to demographic change and the use of renewable energy.

The approach to urban regeneration therefore takes into account the needs of safety, health, quality of working conditions, cultural opportunities and, ultimately, the well-being of citizens.

The theme is back in the spotlight after the pandemic experience during which the issues of proximity emerged strongly as a consequence of the discovery of the unlivability of many parts of cities.

The course aims to provide principles and methodologies guiding urban and territorial regeneration and redevelopment starting from international case studies.
