The Parent Child Relationship on New Family Scenario

2015

In the last two decades, the modern family has been going through significant changes in several aspects of its configuration and structure, requiring a complex and multidisciplinary perspective essential to its understanding. The children subsystem is not immune to these changes, and the parent-child relationship must be reformulated in the light of these wider transformations. Today the modern family, therefore, can appear to be deeply different from the traditional one in terms of structure and roles. This paper is a reflection on some of the alternatives to the traditional family forms in order to highlight critical and resilience factors.

Conversions and Resilient Materials

2018

Nowadays different and various forms of resilience draw our attention but, there is no doubt that, among all the inflated meanings of this term, we are greatly attracted by the one concerning the ability of the material itself to regenerate in a different present when it is widely employed both in sophisticated technologies and also in very simple methodologies to support Man in his research, his knowledge and his production in a world still to be planned far from the logic of the brutal beton. Today the anthropic world of what has already been built must be reconsidered in terms of redesign, systemic rewording, methods and results employed in the making (even in the case of new artifacts).…

Salutogenic design and regeneration for building heritage

2022

The design approach used is the SPCI “Salutogenic Park City Immersive” which focuses on the renaturation of urban living environments. A strategic role is played by the use of greening and landscaping design systems that are able to absorb a significant share of the country’s climate-changing gas emissions, as already partly highlighted by the European Green Deal. In particular, the key factors and methodologies of intervention are based on the interaction between Green City Adaptive and Resilient Design, in terms of physical redevelopment, environmental remediation and energy improvement, integrated with the enhancement of existing heritage. With the SPCI we intend to experiment with inter…

SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSITION: PRINCIPLES AND DESIGN GUIDELINES

2021

In these times of constant precariousness and insecurity, debates on the need for environmental sustainability are on the increase. There is a need to regenerate urban areas both by transforming the existing heritage while respecting historical memory, and by proposing "renewed" neighbourhoods with smartness, according to the use of renewable energy sources, eco-building, intelligent mobility, with a view to ecological transition. Immediate responses are needed to resource depletion on the one hand and the need to protect the quality of natural and environmental capital on the other. To achieve these goals, cities are called upon to play the role of drivers of sustainable development. By en…

GREEN REVOLUTION AND BUILT HERITAGE: CONCEPTS AND PERSPECTIVES OF ENVIRONMENTAL REGENERATION

2021

Urban and environmental regeneration is now a priority on a planetary level, and the climate neutrality objectives set by Brussels inevitably require a new green and sustainable design of cities and a total revision of human behaviour in relation to nature. Environmental regeneration requires an inclusive practice of architecture capable of metabolising the adaptations and contradictions of the built environment. With this in mind, and with no claim to being exhaustive, we will examine some of the "enabling" conditions and "indispensable" reasons for leading a process of environmental regeneration of the built heritage, analysing the critical points relating to public responsibilities, the …

Docenti precari: resilienza e promozione del benessere

2014

In questi ultimi anni la resilienza è stata oggetto di una serie di studi e di riflessioni della comunità scientifica nazionale e internazionale, che le hanno consentito di affrancarsi dall’ambiente teorico astratto entro cui si collocava, per diventare prassi e metodologia di lavoro per tutte le professioni. Nel modello teorico adottato si definisce la resilienza come la capacità di affrontare eventi stressanti, superarli e continuare a svilupparsi aumentando le proprie risorse con una conseguente riorganizzazione positiva della vita. Con la nostra indagine ci siamo proposti di analizzare e misurare il livello di resilienza di un gruppo di 543 docenti (precari) siciliani. Abbiamo verificat…
