Culture, communication and cooperation: the three Cs for a proactive creative city

2009

The network of European Union creative cities is a powerful new configuration of dynamic, innovative and action-oriented cities, able to transform the space using their network of cultural heritage and activities. From a vision in which the more competitive cities are those able to attract the creative class must go to a vision in which the city becomes generates creativity, presents itself as a powerful incubator of economies based on creativity, culture, research and artistic production. The cities will have to invest in the experience economy, strengthening their identity. The Creative City 3.0, therefore, is an active tension, that requires a long-term vision ability, and calls us to ac…

Dubai, da città in transizione a città resiliente?

2020

L'articolo presenta il lavoro, Dubai Pop-Up. Architecture in a transient city, esito di un un workshop internazionale di progettazione (coordinato da T. Aglieri Rinella e R. Garcia Rubio) che ha portato al centro la questione Dubai, riunendo un gran numero di docenti e studenti per ragionare sull’introduzione di nuovi modi di pensare la città. Grazie alle diversificate e talvolta sorprendenti ipotesi che i progetti elaborati suggeriscono, appare chiaro quanto possa essere ancora aperto il grado delle alternative a quel modello di sviluppo orientato solamente sulla “monocoltura del profitto” che sino adesso ha guidato le scelte urbane in questa città. The article presents the work "Dubai Pop…

No more Masterplan: the Cityforming Protocol

2018

In Europe, the season of urban regeneration has produced important effects both in the review of the urban devices and in the rethinking of the settlement forms and their spatial and human relations. But it cannot be denied that certain diseases emerged which often have anaesthetised – if not cancelled – the regenerative effects envisaged. The urban transition, while it has increased the use of regeneration processes from the bottom, has at the same time extended the epidemic of failures derived from a top-down approach. The critical issues of hierarchical urban regeneration cannot be solved by revising the procedures for participation, improving design devices, or innovating implementation…

Taranto città arcipelago. Un caso di emergenza abitativa

2022

Lo scritto restituisce in chiave critica gli esiti della sperimentazione progettuale, sviluppata in occasione del seminario itinerante di progettazione architettonica Villard, sul tema della rigenerazione dei quartieri di Edilizia Residenziale Pubblica a Taranto. Una città fortemente segnata dalla sensibile questione legata alle oltre millecinquecento richieste di accesso da parte dei cittadini aventi diritto ad una casa. Una condizione che determina un forte disagio sociale nelle famiglie meno abbienti escluse dall’assegnazione di alloggi per la limitata offerta di abitazioni pubbliche. Le aree oggetto di studio del Seminario coincidono con tre distinte parti della città di Taranto: Tambur…

The Role of Technology in Participative Processes

2016

Smart city is more and more, in the common feeling, the crossroad of technologies, but first and foremost, the place where humans, contexts and technologies meet and must interact. Technological systems thanks to the deep human interaction acquire an uncertain behaviour that can be hardly modelled and controlled. The resulting complexity, cannot be easily handled with the tools that are available to separate scientific fields. The interdisciplinarity that comes from the implementation of technologies and the dialogue between these and the territories requires new tools for classification and design. New urban design tools are needed allowing to identify in a standardized way adequate suppor…

I luoghi periferici in cui si abilita intelligenza collettiva

2019

Nelle periferie urbane in cui coesistono ampi margini alla modificazione, un surplus di spazi interstiziali e marginali, negli ultimi anni si sta dispiegando la proliferazione di esperienze che aprono il campo a un diverso modo di trasformare le città, in una sorta di resilienza locale alla crisi e al conseguente vuoto di welfare sociale. Uno sguardo alle pratiche in corso sembra indicare una tendenza a spostare l'asset di sviluppo dalla patrimonializzazione immobiliare ad una economia della conoscenza, in cui i beni dismessi si offrano come piattaforme abilitanti dell'azione collettiva, dispositivi spaziali in cui incanalare l'innovazione attraverso il riciclo. Se il Piano Periferie promos…

Management of the image of the city in urban planning: experimental methodologies in the colour plan of the Egadi Islands

2022

AbstractThe debate over the value of the image of a city, which since the 1960s has been gaining wider room for reflection, has arisen as a criticism against the reductionism of the Modern Movement and highlighted the value of the qualitative aspects of an urban landscape. The question asked is if urban planning can in some way govern the image of a city. An investigation into which tools and strategies are necessary to defend the narrative of a city, its identity and its genius loci against the homologating forces that are transforming contemporary cities. The article explores the theoretical principles and methods being experimentally used to qualitatively manage the urban environment. Re…

Facciate di luce: nuovi scenari urbani … verso una luminosa forma partecipativa

2011

Dopo una breve sequenza di tappe storiche, nel corso del XX secolo, che segna alcuni passaggi significa­tivi nell’evoluzione del progetto luminoso applicato alla facciata degli edifici, la ricerca focalizza l’attenzione su intenzionalità, strumentazioni, intenti comunicativi e di spettacolarità di alcuni interventi a carattere artistico realizzati nell’ultimo trentennio (dagli anni ‘80 a oggi), che individuano modificazioni figurative, funzionali e di significato della facciata degli edifici e con essa di un nuovo paesaggio urbano notturno. Grazie all’avanzamento tecnico-tecnologico che realizza la rivoluzione digitale, la facciata luminosa sostituisce o talora affianca alle componenti comm…

The Colour Plan of Egadi Islands

2018

The Egadi Islands, at the western end of Sicily, preserve a peculiar architectural and environmental heritage. The work of people – related to tuna fishing, stone extraction and agriculture – has created, over time, an exceptional landscape. The nature, colour and texture of the local stone have given shape to a traditional architecture that, today, risks to disappear and to be replaced by new anonymous buildings. Furthermore, the pressure of tourism threatens to damage this delicate balance established, over centuries, between people and environment. Therefore, the Local Administration decided to adopt a Colour Plan to manage the inevitable processes of territorial transformations. The Arc…

Infrastructure as interface. Thinking the urban and the high -speed station: italian case-studies.

2011

This presentation will document some results of an ongoing research focusing on the role of infrastructure in contemporary design practice. The methodology is based on critical design theory and combines theoretical aspects with a case-study approach, at the junction of infrastructure, urban design and architecture. It is already well documented that 19th and 20th century infrastructure have deeply affected their programs in order to face new challenges over the last 30 decades. Railway stations are leading examples in this fields: they have gradually implemented their design, that already integrated commercial spaces and facilities, until involving in public space transformation. Instead, …
