SEMINARIO VILLARD
(objectives)
The optional course lasts the whole academic year and provides for the participation in the “Seminario itinerante di progettazione Villard”, reaches the seventeenth edition. To the Seminar participate 13 Faculties, Italian and foreign (Alghero, Ascoli Piceno, Napoli, Palermo, Paris Malaquais, Reggio Calabria, Patrasso, Roma, Venezia, Ancona, Milano, Genova, Pescara, Trapani) and some prestigious cultural institutions. The Seminar, is reserved to the students of the Laurea Magistrale and, for organizational matters, to a maximum of 10 students selected in base to the worth, through the presentation of a portfolio and an interview.
The program foresees the layout of a project on the theme of year, generally proposed by administrations town or other institutions or corporate and, however, connected to different territorial realities. The theme is introduced at the beginning of the seminar and developed during the year according to the anticipated schedule. The trip and the knowledge of the cities constitutes the main core of the seminar. During every meetings, generally four and of the duration of two/three days, lessons, lectures, visits and shows are organized, with the contribution of the teachers of the Faculties participants.
The itinerancy of the seminar ensures that students come into contact with different physical and cultural places, crossing experiences and knowledge with teachers and students from other cities. The seminar has its conclusion in a final event: the show, with the presentation and awarding of the best projects, followed by the publication of the catalog with the work of students and critical contributions collected during the seminar.

ANCIENT ARCHITECTURE:THEORIES, TYPES, AND TECHNIQUES
(objectives)
The course aims at offering the students the tools for analysing and understanding ancient architecture through a didactic strategy based both on an historical process-based outlook (crucial for an architect's background) and more practical design-based topics, highlighting traditional materials and building techniques, structural behaviour of traditional construction, principles of architectural design, the architectural language of classical orders.
During the lessons the students will be encouraged to understand a ruined construction through diagrams and sketches as well as to have a a structural approach to the building techniques used in Greek and Roman architecture. In order to gain a wide understanding of classical architecture the classes and site visits will focus on the aesthetical issues of classical architecture, the political significance of Imperial architecture in Rome, metrology, design issues, the context in which the buildings were designed and built, the historical sources, ancient treatises.

HERITAGE
(objectives)
Could - and should - urban space be considered cultural heritage? If so, how can we reveal the hidden properties of the spatial system, so to turn it into a cultural landscape? And how could these properties be communicated in order to integrate space as cultural heritage into contemporary and social construction processes? How can cities integrate historic layers (palimpsests) into their urban development? The project aims at critically examining and synthesizing archaeological and urban artefacts, matching them with other memories of human experience in the urban landscape. Our intention is to analyze and interpret the city of Rome following roman aqueducts (from Porta Capena to Parco degli Acquedotti) with its surroundings, hypothetically made up of five distinguishable, interrelated layers: The original landscape: the topography of the ancient city; Classical Rome (a period of ca. twelve centuries); Medieval Rome (ca. ten centuries); the Rome of the Renaissance and Baroque (ca. four centuries); Modern and contemporary Rome (after 1871). These different layers have constantly interacted through the historical development of urbanism, and their existing elements in the urban landscape will be identified, studied and described by students in different ways such as mapping, storytelling collection, archival research.

HISTORY AND METHODOLOGY OF ANALYSIS IN ARCHITECTURE
(objectives)
The knowledge of historic architecture is very important to help the students improve their capacity of understanding the buildings and their design and technical features; this knowledge is gained through the study of the whole of buildings’ motivations, historic context and design features. The wide variety of courses dealing with history of architecture comes from this conviction.
The course of History of Architecture and Methods of Analysis aims at critically retracing the composition process -either ideological, methodical or procedural- at the basis of every architecture; it is directed towards the students of the fifth year of course, that are already aware of the role that history of architecture plays in the design process. In particular, the very role of history in relation to architectural design during centuries is at the basis of the disciplinary orientation meant for the topics at hand, avoiding to take into account the use of simple stylistic issues as repertoire-catalogue and preferring the methodological lesson from the past.
Once the intention of considering above all the historical evolution of the design method has been stated, the language will be dealt with closely during the classes, together with the programmatic criteria and the motivations -even ideological- found in the period of time between the Fifteen century and today.

PUBLIC SPACE AND CLIMATE CHANGE
(objectives)
The course deals with the complex relationship between climate and city. The evaluation of mitigation strategies and adaptation to the effects of climate change in the urban environment, becomes an increasingly important and essential issue in every hypothesis of modification of physical space and, in particular, of collective spaces in the city.
The main objective of the course is to provide students some tools and techniques to evaluate the impact of an intervention on public space in terms of climate resilience and urban health (with particular attention to the microclimatic phenomenon known as "Urban Heat Island"). The course, conceived as a design exercise, aims to stimulate an innovative and sensitive approach to the understanding of urban morphologies, territories and their own needs for adaptation to new climatic conditions that affect the life and health of the inhabitants of metropolitan areas. The course tries to stimulate this sensitivity and, at the same time, to experience a broad design vision that can deal with the complex challenges that affect the contemporary public space, with the new and changing needs that contemporary urban communities express and that the project must be able to meet.

PROCESSI DI RIUSO E RIUSO ADATTIVO DEL PATRIMONIO
(objectives)
The transformation of the city is accompanied by processes of reuse of buildings and areas that are not used or which are affected by processes of disposal or functional reconversion or environmental interventions.
The course aims to provide the student with the tools and methods necessary to place the project within these processes. Reuse and adaptive reuse directly call into question the relationships between body and spaces and between inhabitants and buildings, connoting the action of the project in the sense of an openness to the contributions and desires of possible users and inhabitants in general. Open, inclusive design practices that engage in dialogue with those interested in transformation will constitute a particular focus offered to students together with the relevance that artistic and performative initiatives can play in these processes.

TRANSITIONAL LANDSCAPES. HERITAGE MAKING AND MINDSCAPES IN TIME OF GLOBAL CHANGE
(objectives)
Transitional landscapes. Heritage making and mindscapes in time of global change
The course explores the intersection among heritage (natural, cultural, built), reuse and urban wellbeing, approaching conceptual and practical examples aimed at supporting the city's transition towards preventive and crisis-preparedness qualities. Drawing on contents and results of the EU funded project CHANGES – Cultural Heritage Active innovation for Next-GEn Sustainable society, the aim is to explore the many effects generated by the activation of material and immaterial legacy, questioning the generative role of heritage matters. The course will also experiment with innovative spatial, socio-ecological and cultural design practices.
The course “Transitional landscapes. Heritage making and mindscapes in time of global change” develops within the field of urban studies. It aims to introduce some of the increasingly common tools, method, approach to urban heritage, conceived as an open, participated, performative, continuously changing artefact. In so doing, the course aims to provide students with: 1) an overview of the most updated conceptions of cultural heritage in Europe; 2) a complex and multilevel analytical capacity, both in terms of theory and practice, of heritage contexts; 3) the basic elements and tools to set heritage policy and/or design strategies.

(objectives)
The purpose of the morphological studies proposed by the course is the knowledge of the characters of the built environment and the recognition of its formation and transformation having as ultimate goal the architectural design open to multiple esthetic synthesis.
lt aims to teach a method of reading the built form through the understanding of the forming process common to urban fabrics and buildings. The basic notions of urban organism and process will be provided. The term "reading" not indicates the neutral recording of phenomena, but an awareness which requires the active and dynamic contribution of the reader.

SENTIMENTAL TOPOGRAPHY
(objectives)
To broaden the students’ frame of reference in the field of design culture, through the in-depth investigation of the experience of important figures and works of 20th century architecture. The study is aimed at the understanding of the generative process of the work, at the identification of operative categories achievable in the present time. During the course we will investigate design experiences in which the place is understood as heritage, a stratified palimpsest of material and immaterial testimonies, where collective memory takes shape through design action. The project operates as the plot for a new narrative that is necessarily discontinuous, but rooted in space: a work of interpretation and synthesis between the generality of construction archetypes and the singularity of each site.
To show the direct relationship between the study of these experiences and their translation within the architectural project, with particular regard to the relationship between project and place, between old and new, between architecture and circumstance.
To promote the internationalization of didactics, through the construction of a geography of correspondences between figures of architects who are distant in space and time, linked by what Henri Focillon called “affinity of spirit in relation to forms”.
To invite students to directly experience the design approach investigated in the case studies through work on the existing heritage; the principle of imagining the new is affirmed through the search for the original forms, starting from the opposition between old and new, through a conscious process of rewriting, capable of defining new relationships between site and theme, artifice and nature. The past is modified by the present by revealing new concatenations between things. Collective memory takes shape through a new narrative.

LABORATORY OF LANDSCAPE OBSERVATION AND INTERPLAY
(objectives)
Teaching goals
Landscape is never still. Everything, even what is apparently inert, is permeated and modelled by a continuous work that transforms, generates, regenerates and consumes it. Regardless of the spatial and temporal scale on which it is viewed, the landscape is a vibrant matter and is constantly changing, in ways that are sometimes barely perceptible, at other times overwhelming. Assuming this awareness is useful in order to position ourselves in front of the contemporary condition of territories and environments. The aim of the course is to investigate the landscape, in its urban dimension, as a performative statute, through investigations in landscape and urban planning literature (reading) and through explorations and transformative actions (observations and interactions), which are able to train the competence of observation (knowing how to see) and of cooperation (knowing how to interact with the dynamics in progress).

LAB2 - LEARNING FROM ABROAD
(objectives)
The workshop has the triple objective of:
- to refine and deepen the ability to read and operate in the urban fabric at different scales;
- to acquire familiarity with the redevelopment of degraded urban areas in a context characterised by pre-existing buildings to be enhanced.
- To develop a greater awareness of how the effectiveness of a single intervention is directly proportional to its ability to integrate into a broader framework.
The objective will be achieved by working on a specific part of the city, chosen in order to stimulate understanding of how the complexity of the context and the constraints imposed by the pre-existences and their interpretation play a key role in the contemporary design process.
