The laboratory deals with the design of urban space as a strategic dimension in the management of the transformations of contemporary city. An intermediate disegn dimension between architectural project and town planning allows to: define space and urban form giving identity to the intervention; prefigure habits giving way also to informal practices; combining architectural character and programmatic indeterminacy. A strategic role will therefore be assigned to public space, such as a structuring element able to deliver a strong identity that will be not compromised over time by changes or replacements.

The course aims to provide theoretical background for the design of open, accessible, inclusive and vibrant public spaces.
As argued by Bernardo Secchi in the development of the city of the XX century theories and practices of urbanism have been directly related with an idea of spatial justice based on openness, urbanity and accessibility. On the bases of which premises the project of urban space can work as equalizer of social differences, the place where encounters among different people are possible and, consequently, the place where tolerance is nurtured by a process of learning to live together?
In order to answer these questions, the course will present different theoretical approaches, and their intersections, to the conceptualization of urban space: the historical and typo-morphological and the notion of urbanity; the right to the city and the relationship between space and citizenship right; and the everyday life, that sees the ordinary life in public space.
The interaction these approach will let the student to relate urban forms with forms of urbanity and to an exploration of physical property of space and the type and quality of social relation that occur in it. The general aim is that the student will achieve critical knowledge for the interpretation of urban spaces and the theoretical background to produce meaningful representation of urban spaces adequate for the development of themes in urban design.

The course is given through a synergy between three different but complementary disciplines such as restoration, design and strength of materials that will arise in relation to a common theme: the study and interpretation of the existing city.
Knowledge of the city is achieved by means of questions about its composition, its history, its becoming; by means of interdisciplinary theoretical and practical research about the enhancement of the existing city.
In the course will be discussed about the character training, typological and constructional of the historic city and then up to the scale of the building and its construction characteristics, so as to deepen their knowledge of technological components and structural of the pre-modern heritage.
The course aims to provide to the students the tools of understanding and analyze the urban historical context with the objective of possible restauration interventions.
The goal to be achieved is to correlate different themes, interests and attitudes to the knowledge and control of the structure of the city. The knowledge ment as in-depth understanding of urban transformations through historical research, cartography reading, typological study, the structural control of the architecture and then the graphical design finalized to the urban and architectural restoration and recomposition.
There will be a practical exercise on a given topic that will be developed at different representation scales: it will cover initially the entire historic center of Rome down to the size of neighborhood and a single street.
Through this project, students will have the opportunity to test the ability of interpretation and reading of historical buildings: starting from the architectural survey and the subsequent critical and philological analysis of the historic center of Rome, in order to acquire the methodology for a correct intervention of recovery, transformation or restoration.
The course is developed with lectures ex cathedra, visits and inspections, debates.
During the weekly meetings part of the time available will be devoted to a "laboratory" in which there will be graphic tutorials, reviews, thematic analysis in the presence of teachers who will provide practical explanations from time to time on the exercises to be performed.
The periodic review of the projects, exercises, trials, is an integral part of the learning path.
Mid-term evaluations are foreseen together with lectures and laboratory. Student's attendance is required.
The examination consists in the discussion and evaluation of the assignments and drawings gradually developed during the course and the presentation of a "notebook" containing all the exercises made in the classroom, at home and outside.

Program: the course of “History of the city and the territory” (monograph) provides investigations of the city through sections included between antiquity and the middle of XVIII century. Special attention is reserved to the study of italian cities and to urban transformations of Roma. The various sections will concern topics of special interest. In particular will be processed the following topics: ”Italy before Roma”; “Ancient Roma: from the foundation of the city to the constantinian age”; “Roma in italy – urban expansion-contraction between late antiquity and early middle age”; “Distinctive characters of islamic city”; “Natural and rational city in the middle age”; “Models and types of cities” (in particular: Siena, Pisa, Firenze, Gubbio); “Military and ideal city in the treatises and in the practice of urban transformations”; “Introduction to the renaissance city - palace and city” (in particular: Urbino, Ferrara and Pienza); “Renaissance Roma”; “Architecture and city in the state of Farnese”; “Napoli and Palermo capitals of southern Italy between XV and XVI century”; “Baroque Roma”; “Late baroque and neoclassical Roma”; “Capital cities of the eighteenth century in Europe”.

Texts: books, papers and other material will be shown to class. In particular, for the study of renaissance and medieval city are recommended the following texts: E. Guidoni, Storia dell' urbanistica – il medioevo, secoli VI-XII, Roma-Bari, Laterza, 1991; E. Guidoni, La città dal medioevo al rinascimento, Roma-Bari, Laterza 1981.
For the study of Roma in the XVIII century is recommended the following text: P. Micalizzi, Roma nel XVIII secolo, Roma, Kappa, 2003.

The course deals with the themes of the project at the urban scale in the methods provided by the town plan of the city of Rome, with a focus on issues such as: the urban redevelopment of the city, the re-use of public assets dismissed, the implementation of the objectives of the project tackling the climate change (reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, resistance to extreme weather events), forms of collective participation in the different phases of the project, the use of innovative legal approaches (urban equalization, local management of development rights, the creation of public services with the use of PPP formulas), the infrastructural facilities of the suburban areas and infrastructural equalization at the urban scale.
The laboratory provides advanced elements of urban planning at the scale of operational municipal planning, with reference to the reading of the overall scale.

Theme: urban transformation along the rail tracks in Rome
The context of the study is the Rome metropolitan area. The specific territorial scope corresponds exercise area affected by rail system (metro, tram), existing and planned especially along the stretch of the Tiber River to the north of Rome, the Flaminio district to the alluvial plain between the Tiberina and Salaria.

The products will concern the development of intervention programs for urban renewal and the restoration of the landscape values ​​of critical contexts characterized by the existence of public goods that can serve as a driver for a higher viability of urban regeneration interventions and the most advanced pursuit of public interest objectives.
Planning results will depart from the design patterns in the Plan of Rome, in particular by Areas of Strategic Planning and the diagrams for the city to be renovate.

Particularly the intervention hypotheses concern the contexts where harder is the risk from phenomena related to climate change in progress, to measure the feasibility of urban transformation projects including settlement transfer and ecological regeneration of the settlements; and those characterized by large public properties involved in privatization of assets (former forts and barracks, owned by municipal utilities such as AMA and ATAC, various state-owned assets).
Noteworthy among others: the township of Labaro-Prima Porta; the scope of the Tiber north of the GRA in Ponte Milvio, on both banks; the Foro Italico and public properties around the Foreign Ministry; Piazzale Maresciallo Giardino.
Particular attention will be paid to structural conditions (physical, economic, social) for the production of public goods and for their renewal, including through quantitative verification of infrastructures and the comparison of the indicators measured with indicators defined by the service objectives. A specific regard will be aimed at the territorial energy efficiency themes, as a condition of feasibility for urban regeneration interventions.

This course deals with the disciplinary horizon of landscape architecture: the art and technique to shape open spaces, with materials, methods and approaches proper of landscaping. It focuses on relationships rather than artifacts, processes rather than outcomes; because it prefers the use of natural and living materials, in evolutionary and cyclical time dimensions; Because it proceeds through strategies and programs rather than forms; Because it requires the contamination of various professional skills (botany, geology, natural science engineering, environmental sciences, economics and sociology ...); Because it crosses scale and does not proceed mechanically from general to detail; Because it requires the study and interpretation of behavioral and social topics.
The main objective of the course is to understand this complexity within the framework of the urban open space design, to provide the students with the ability to govern and value this complexity on a cultural, ethical, figurative and environmental level through a receptive and attentive sensitivity (listening and viewing skills) and a specific technical skill (ability to intervene and transform).
The project of open space can be declined in a multitude of species of spaces: gardens, parks, shores, residual areas, gardens, squares, streets, streets, parks, and so on, subject to further specific articulations Than reciprocal hybridisations. Some of these categories are the legacy of a long and valuable historical legacy, others talk about contemporaryity and the continuous transformation of urban spaces. On the last we stress our attention.

The Landscape Representation lessons will be aimed at providing the basics
knowledge and practices for the analogical and digital management of the landscape project. In particular
attention will be drawn to the representation of the landscape through drawings in the various techniques.
In this regard, students must keep an A5 format notebook on which to write down
information, ideas, and sketches of the project area. Other lessons will be dedicated to
digital representation of the landscape, with lessons focused on photographic techniques, on the
image management, on post production and composition of project renderings through
photo editing software. Students will be presented with new trends in representation
of the landscape, so that they can reproduce the techniques also in the projects of the theme of the year.
Other lessons will be dedicated to the laboratory that will allow a direct and continuous comparison with
the students for a complete project management under different aspects.

The course aims to provide students with competence for the design and calculation of conventional structures, with particular reference to concrete buildings with framed structure and the related technical standards. This purpose will be achieved through lectures, both theoretical and applied, that will guide the student in the preparation of the project of a multi-storey building in a seismic zone.

The course intervene at the core of the city in a creative, interdisciplinary and participatory way. It offers lessons about the relationship between arts, architecture and the city, and direct experiences such as urban explorations, realization of micro-structures at the 1:1 scale, events and performative actions of a high civic and symbolic content, in complex social contexts, with special attention to the intercultural city and the migrant's hospitality. Is divided in two parts. The first consists in lessons, explorations, fieldwork, conferences, seminars and workshops. The second is the elaboration of a project that can be: a traditional architectural project, that simulate with drawings and models some possible transformations, a "design and build" project at the one to one scale; other kinds of urban transformation's tactics, depending of the context. We will work in direct contact with the local area and its communities.
We can explain the teaching approach goes in three main words: Arts Architecture City.
By Arts we mean the tools of knowledge that guide us towards the comprehension of the dynamics of contemporary urban transformations; poetic glances that are able to reveal those aspects of the city that are often invisible, and to provoke their potentialities.
We understand Architecture as a practice of reading and processing space, both in a physical and symbolic way. The course offers to the students an occasion to experiment the construction of an artefact in the city that is able to provoke social transformations.
We view the City as a contested space, not just in terms of the formal regulations that aim to rule its development but in terms of those new dwelling practices that seek to transform housing and neighbourhoods, to change the use and meaning of public space, and to claim people’s right to the city.

The module aims to integrate the issues of the evaluation examining some specific subject, according with the recent developments of the discipline. The assessment becomes a part of the design process, providing logical and methodological support and becoming an active component in the construction of the design. The evaluation, therefore, becomes a contribution to the implementation of the preferred solution in relation to context, to the actors involved in the process, and to feasibility, taking into account the numerous variables (socio-economic, environmental, financial, aesthetic, cultural, etc.). The module deals with the methods and techniques of project evaluation according to different approaches (financial, economic, multidimensional); finally, the module introduces methodologies that enable the assessment of the effects and impacts perceived by the community.
Specifically, the module deals with:
A brief summary of appraisal basics: appraisals principles and methods. Basics of international appraisal procedures. Total Economic Value, definitions and techniques. Shared evaluation and deliberative Value.
Methods and techniques of projects evaluation: financial methods (Investment Analysis), cash flows and measures of investment performance, project financing, economic methods (Cost-Benefit Analysis), multidimensional methods, Multicriteria Analysis (among which Electre methods, Dominant Regime Methods, Analytic Hierarchy Process, etc.). Community Impact Evaluation, Deliberative methods to evaluate impact and effect perceived by community.

Programme
The course deals with the analysis, structuring and design of the urban space, considering its interaction with the built surroundings and with the local environmental factors, detecting compatibilities and incompatibilities, at various scales, with the aim to define appropriate actions.
A systematic approach to the investigation of the urban space liveability takes to define problems and alternative technical solutions, apt to meet users’ requirements as well as places’ propositions.
The course considers, methodologically and operationally, several ways of action in order to verify their congruence with both requests and then to evaluate, from the point of view of governing the process of transformation/conservation of the built environment, the appropriateness of the advanced hypothesis.
For the general aspects, the topics concern: the renewal of the built environment, consequent to uses’ evolution; the adaptation to performance and environment regulations; the urban and building upgrading by a bioclimatic approach. For the application aspect: the specificity of the conversion project; the feasibility study and the assessment methods; the definition of the fields of action and of the congruent technical solutions.
These topics are tackled focusing the attention on some possible overall solutions, implemented by innovative technical measures, aimed at improving the built environment performances for all users: accessibility, safety, comfort and attractiveness, both from the physical and psychological point of view, keeping in mind sustainability and environmental impact reduction as goals.

Teaching organization
The course is structured in two parts.
- one is theoretical, organized in lectures and short thematic seminaries;
- one is devoted to applied work, carried out both at university and at home, that takes the student to face some phases of the design process, concerning various levels of compatibility check and assessment, the definition and analysis of alternative technical solutions, the selection and drawing of the most appropriate ones.
The lectures are targeted, on the one hand, to provide a design methodology based on requirement/performance approach and implementation guidelines, on the other hand, to support students in the development of the theme of the year. The aim is to steer them towards the choice of energetically sustainable solutions, congruent with the prefixed performance goals, and of innovative technologies apt to use at the best the environment’s potentialities (eco-efficiency). Such solutions are to be applied in the re-design of the town connective texture, constituted by outdoor paths and sojourn places, and in the urban mobility re-organization, with the aim to control the interaction between buildings and urban spaces and to improve their liveability.

The work that takes place within the module aims to deepen the disciplines that characterize technical physics, in relation to urban and territorial applications. in particular the work that will be carried out during the course and which will be the subject of discussion during the final exam is as follows:
1. The city as an open system that exchanges energy and matter with the surrounding environment. The urban environmental sustainability: containment of energy consumption and pollutant emissions; protection of earth, water, air
2. The national, regional and urban energy system: production, distribution, use and accounting of energy; conventional and renewable energies; regulatory framework
3. Energy and environmental assessment systems: environmental impact assessment (V.I.A.); energy certification of buildings
4. Noise planning and control systems: the acoustic zoning of the territory; land consolidation plans; the acoustic requirements of buildings and components
5. Artificial lighting planning and control systems: regional laws for the containment of light pollution; municipal lighting regulating plans (pric)
6. Analysis of climatic and environmental characteristics in relation to the location and morphological features of the city (sunshine, dominant winds, sources of noise, local morphology, surrounding urban fabric, etc.) and the impact these variables have on design at the urban and single building levels.

Part one of the course faces the needs stemming from local contexts, the way they are detected and acknowledged within welfare and urban regulation policies, since long term provisional models are currently denied by new environmental emergencies, immigration, stagflation, and other largely unpredictable circumstances.
Part two deals with public policies in the frame of the city as a “collective actor”. Innovation in urban policies, planning and urban design tools is called upon to a strategic approach matching certainty (in times (opp. within a term time) and procedures) and flexibility, resources shortage and multiplicity of actors.
Part three deepens some reference cases of urban regeneration tackling different issues, such as: equity, understood as the quality of covenant with citizens; efficiency, framed as a set of conditions that optimize the urban performance; sustainability which conveys morphological and ecological quality of the environment.
A major focus will pay attention to innovation in governance schemes and in professional skills involved.
