ABOUT

The Research and Documentation Centre for Technology, Architecture and City in developing Countries (CRD-PVS), founded within the Politecnico di Torino, established its own constitution in 2003.

The Centre encourages research activities focused on habitat improvement in extreme conditions, such as climate or social emergency, and promotes science awareness initiatives (seminars, lectures, workshops, seminars etc.).

It further offers a postgraduate education course adressed to architects and engineers interested in working within developing and emerging Countries projects.

Moreover, CRD-PVS participates in programs of international and technical cooperation in partnership with International Non-Governmental Organizations.

A documentation on habitat-related topics in developing and emerging countries is available at CRD-PVS specialized library.

History “Today, technology is providing the tools to remedy the contradiction in the industrial world, as long as you want, because technology alone can neither liberate neither enslaving; it must be understood, guided, used towards the goals that interest us.”

“Oggi la tecnologia sta mettendo a disposizione gli strumenti per sanare questa contraddizione del mondo industriale, purché lo si voglia: perché la tecnologia da sola non può né liberare né rendere schiavi; essa deve essere capita, guidata, impiegata verso gli obiettivi che ci interessano.”

(Giorgio Ceragioli, “L’uomo e la città”, Progetto, n. 3, 1982)

In the sixties prof. Giorgio Ceragioli started to promote initiatives, research and collaborations in the field of Architecture and Cooperation. Between 1969 and 1972, he launched free courses about building industrialization in extreme conditions and social housing in developing Countries.

In 1988, under his leadership, the school of specialization in “Technology, Architecture and City in developing Countries” (TAC) was inaugurated: it has been a point of maturity and exchange at the international level. Since 1996, the direction of the school was entrusted by prof. Massimo Foti, then by prof. Nuccia Maritano Comoglio.

From 2003 to 2014, the school has given way to the post-graduated course in “Habitat, technology and development” (HTD).

During the years many others people cooperated with the team. The common thread has always been the constant attention to the issues of habitat and development in research, teaching, testing in the lab, looking for a convergence between the ideal choices and the operational field.

Crowdmapping Mirafiori Sud Watch. Talk. Share Turin, Italy

Apr 2013 Oct 2013 18.400 â‚Ź

The aim of the project is to identify and communicate, with the participation of the residents and thanks to the use of new technologies, the barriers (physical and cultural) that prevent residents from making use of the public space in the Mirafiori Sud district.

The information gathered, processed and classified, is made available through an online platform.

Citizens are active parties: using crowdmap, the opensource tool created by Ushahidi, everyone can send by mobile phone problems, proposals and the things that work well in their district, thus feeding a process of complete and transparent participation.

The project won the SIforAGE Prize (Social Innovation Research Prize 2014). http://areeweb.polito.it/mapmirafiorisud/

PROJECTS MiraMap Watch. Collaborate. Project.

Turin, Italy

2014 / on going

MiraMap is a project that promotes social innovation through the use of new digital technologies by involving residents and public officials in a signaling process of resource problems and potentials of the area through a collavorative digital platform.

It is an experimental research project from the department of Architecture and Design of Politecnico di Torino with help of the community, Mirafiori Sud district and the government of the City of Turin.

International Student Design Competition Tur(i)ntogreen - Farms In A Town Visions of agro-urban neighborhoods where food production is strongly integrated with architecture, occupation and nature. from Turin, Italy open to any country Sep 2012 / Jan 2013 2.000,00 â‚Ź

20

Imagine a neighbourhood that connects the city with the fields not only physically but also from the cultural, philosophical and environmental perspective.

This will be the agriculture and food production district in Turin (Italy), where people will be living in a farming oriented urban realm. One narrow area of the FIAT, one of the biggest car factory of the World, in the Mirafiori plant, devoted to production stock parking, has been working as a second barrier to the expansion and integration of the South Mirafiori neighbourhood with the City.

Now it has the chance to provide Turin with a new model of urban life.
