High-rise timber architecture: an opportunity for the sustainability of the built environment
2019
Bioeconomy, circular economy, land use reduction, sustainable use of natural resources, reduction of CO2 emissions in the atmosphere and recycling are the keywords which the building world must face in the near future, as the environmental emergency can no longer be postponed. In order to disseminate in the scientific community the different possibilities of timber as a sustainable building material throughout its whole life cycle and to provide the professionals with suitable decision-making tools for a conscious design, within the cultural and scientific scenario of the recent years, the paper serves as a moment of reflection highlighting how a closer integration between different sectors…
Collective participation for the sustainable redevelopment of degraded environments and urban public space
2022
The use of participatory processes as useful tools for the regeneration of the built environment is urgently topical, also in view of the inclusive forms of decision-making that have been introduced for years by ministerial and European standards. The research is part of a well-structured cultural and regulatory context characterised by new and interesting experiments in the field. Studying the participatory process as a useful strategy for conflict management and for the construction of new regenerative models in fact also implies a clarification of "what is meant by participation and the participatory project. At the same time, as widely testified to by the production of manuals in recent…

PROGETTARE L’ADATTAMENTO. Resilienze di agricoltura urbana nel contesto europeo
2022
I crescenti fenomeni legati al cambiamento climatico spingono le città a sviluppare piani di resilienza che possano rispondere in termini di sostenibilità ambientale, sociale ed economica. Le strategie nature-based possono rappresentare una soluzione; tra queste l’agricoltura urbana può contribuire ad aumentare la resilienza dei tessuti urbani europei. Questa attività è stata più volte oggetto di interesse in periodi di crisi come impegno comunitario dai caratteri sociali, oltre che produttivi ed educativi. Attraverso un excursus storico e una successiva analisi di casi studio contemporanei, il paper fornisce strumenti progettuali per intervenire nel costruito con strategie che spaziano dal…
Rigenerazione dell’area dell’ex fabbrica tessile Gulì a Palermo
2018
L’attività industriale palermitana, pur avendo vissuto un periodo fiorente piuttosto breve, ha lasciato tracce ben riconoscibili e identificabili all’interno del tessuto urbano, con manufatti architettonici di notevole importanza per qualità di progetto e dimensioni. L’ex fabbrica tessile Gulì è un complesso interessante sia dal punto di vista architettonico sia per la sua localizzazione urbanistica, molto prossima a poli di rilevante interesse culturale. Lo studio, condotto presso il Dipartimento di Architettura dell’Ateneo di Palermo, propone un intervento di rigenerazione che coinvolge non solo i manufatti edilizi presenti ma l’intera area e la sua trasformazione in un nuovo centro di qu…
Una sostenibilidad social para la regeneración urbana de la ciudad inteligente
2013
Today the concept of “Smart City” is usual in the new urban and globalized vocabulary. Despite, the power of its modernity can conceal a insufficient reflection about the scope of its capacity to transform the urban and contemporary paradigm. This research offers a reflection regard what since the euro Mediterranean contest, the concept of “smart city”, can contribute to the international debate, and alerts about the importance to know the deliberation of the urban transformations through the history and also the contemporary age. Actualmente el concepto “Smart City” es habitual en el nuevo vocabulario urbano globalizado. Sin embargo, la potencia de su modernidad puede estar ocultando una r…
Heritage, urbanity and transition: methods and tools for a possible future.
2021
It has taken millennia to provide our world with works of art that are sometimes comparable in magnificence and character to natural creation. Some civilizations of the past, without having any of our means, have created a historical heritage of infinite beauty. The literature on heritage and memory reports that heritage exists because society attests that an artifact, event, or place is so valuable that it is handed down to the next generation. Heritage is our anchor and beauty will save us. Architects, historians and geographers have argued that the concepts of heritage and memory are socially constructed, they shape cities and influence their identity. In the current metamorphosis, how t…
INNOVATION AND NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO ENHANCE THE ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE IN THE HISTORIC CITY.THEORY AND TOOLS
2016
The ancient heritage is a fundamental territorial resource, the reason why territory protection and conservation have to be reinforced, as much as it’s necessary to improve its promotion and responsible use. In particular, cultural heritage promotion inside the cultural circuit, gives the chance to own the territory in terms of social and tourist resource. In this perspective, the process of valorization of the historical sites must be proactive and strategic in order to spread knowledge of cultural heritage, through the use of advanced tools for the understanding of the exhibition in the museum context; but also to improve the public use. As part of integrated strategies for sustainable de…
