Università Roma Tre

In this course students gain familiarity with techniques and methods for understanding and documenting the historic-formative character of historic centres, including the various phases that have formed and transformed the urban fabric; construction types; their mutation over time; identification of “coherent” modification and distinction from incoherent or damaging changes that should be removed. Particular attention is devoted to recognising and understanding pre-modern construction techniques, architectural elements and finishes, with the intention of reusing these in contemporary architectural and urban restoration.

The Course of Urban Planning will aim to inscribe the restoration of individual buildings in the context of the general improvement of the urban cultural heritage, considered as a whole but also in its relations with the surrounding landscape.

The lectures will cover the evolution of planning instruments conceived explicitly to manage historical city centers (Recovery Plans), the survey of some recent plans, the illustration of the planning rules concerning the recover of buildings, their subdivision, the change of their former use.

The Course of Urban Planning will also propose the study and redesign of some public spaces in the historic center chosen in the Workshop, with the purpose to improve their aesthetic and social functions.
