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.

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.

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.

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: PROJECT AND PLACE IN THE OTHER MODERNITY
(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. This approach presupposes the interpretative analysis and recognition of figures, themes and formal structures that are constant in the configuration of space, useful for orienting the students’ training, to allow them to make conscious and non-occasional choices.
Invite students to conceive study itineraries, which contribute to the construction of a personal reference system that they can draw on, through the comparison of design approaches.
To show the direct relationship between the study of these experiences and their translation within the architectural project. The theoretical and operational problems of the project are tackled

TRANSITIONAL LANDSCAPES. HERITAGE MAKING AND MINDSCAPE IN TIME OF GLOBAL CHANGE
(objectives)
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.
