Urbs in horto. Design studio: situations, scenarios. Venice. 2014-2015. Research through design project. EMU. European Master in Urbanism. Tutors: Prof. Paola Viganò, Andrea Curtoni, Giulia Mazzorin.
The Design Studio reflects on research/design through description and scenarios. The Italian territories of dispersion, the new form of the contemporary metropolis, are taken as a reference for comparison with other European or non-European cases. The hypothesis that leads the Studio is that these territories are today facing a strong mutation. The Studio observes and reads places and territories in transformation, questioning them with different hypothesis about their future. Scenarios relate to new way of living, moving, inhabiting the city and the territory are explored to understand the ways in which the territories of dispersion have been, will and might be shared or conflictual resources and support of an innovative ecological project; looking for new representations of the territory as infrastructure and living place. The project is a reading tool of contemporary cities and territories. An analytic and elementaristic approach. The project is also a collection of hypothesis on the future of contemporary cities and territories. ‘Urbs in Horto’ is a vision for the central area of the Veneto region that investigates the potentials, opportunities and conflicts of the urban sprawl in the diffused city. ‘Urbs in horto’ is a process that becomes an instrument of urban renewal that starts from the specific qualities and ways of living the territory and ends in a new image of the diffused city. It is a process to integrate the landscape and generate new types of urbanity, different iconic images linked to the qualities of the space. ‘Urbs in horto’ is a way to reformulate the diffused city and its diffusion of urbanity.
Re-cycle Italy Ve.net. Venice. 2014.
Testing processes and recycling projects. EMU. European Master in Urbanism. Tutors: Prof. Paola Viganò, Giulia Mazzorin. The project aims to propose new ways of tourist model for Veneto region,reusing the current set of resources (abandoned, decommissioned and underused infrastructure assets, settlement and production in the region) as well the reconsideration of the infrastructure landscape formed by the river system and basin. The proposal reflects on the isotropic conditions in the territorial of Veneto, emphasizing the ecological resilience. The reflection through the gradient of the “three natures” of John Dixon Hunt, permitted us to understand the landscape as the garden of the “città diffusa” in this the territory.
Recycling city 03. Venice. 2014.
Strategies, scenarios and prototypes for the central area of the Veneto region. International design intensive programme. Tutors: Prof. Bernardo Secchi and Prof. Paola Viganò. The workshop deals with the regeneration and recycling of the spaces of production in the central area of the Veneto Region. At a time of major economic and social change the “diffused city,” the territories of scattered settlements, small businesses and single-family houses are changing as well. About a quarter of the industrial warehouses in the Veneto region, northeast of Italy, are vacant, its inhabitants are aging, a new immigrant population will reuse its fabric, introducing different lifestyles therein. At the same time, the environmental and economic crises encourage a cut in energy consumption, carbon emissions, and a greater economy of means, also and above all in building up and modifying the territory. Starting from the underused areas of industrial compounds, from the spatial and natural capital that intersects the existing industrial platforms, Recycling City 3 has the objective to requalify and re-imagine innovative working places, better equipped, more accessible without a car, more flexible, better integrated in the rest of the territory. Often part of a vast productive landscape, almost a garden, many of the actual small and medium industrial platforms might become exemplary of a new and high-level environmental quality, valorizing the hybrid and unusual juxtapositions that define space In the “diffuse city”.
Strategic urban plan for the T11 highroad. Tarragona. Barcelona. 2014. Regional design and conceptual masterplan. EMU. European Master in Urbanism. Tutors: Prof. Isabel Casti単eira , Prof. Antonio Font Arellano.
The next Mediterranean Olympics games in 2017, give the ideal opportunity for Tarragona, the metropolitan capital of the second largest province of Catalonia, to consolidate its growth with order and coherence with the territory. The growth of the city prevails to the west, due the importance of the interactions and exchange activities between Tarragona and the municipalities on the west (Reus, Vilaseca and Salou); adding to the city not only the urban tissues that nowadays are perceived as distant and separated pieces in relation with the city; but also the large isolated pieces of tertiary industry linked to the roads infrastructure that paradoxically, seems to cut the city in its intention to connect it. To do this, the project have taken in consideration not only the criteria of existing and proposed planning; but also an analysis of the territory and its relationship with the city; under different approaches that aim to cover the elements that build it and give structure to it. In this way, as a part of the master plan project, there was a recognition and enhancement of the various protected green open spaces and flood zones, a detailed morphologic analysis of the existing urban tissues, a catalogue of the archaeological protected areas and risk areas as well; a network of facilities and the connectivity and mobility in different modes.
Strategic territorial plan for the Cardener river. Barcelona. 2013. Regional design. EMU. European Master in Urbanism. Tutors: Prof. Joaquin SabatĂŠ, Julian Galindo, Alvaro Cuellar.
In a territory, all its elements have different scales; from the ones who refers as elements of the place, until those that acquire a certain value due the correlation with other elements. The role of these pieces from all scales is what builds the territorial identity; therefore, to address this territorial project, instead of opt for ​​ a static stereoscopic vision, it explored an approach based on a multiscale vision; which is what allows us to work with the current resources, understanding the value of these items as well as concrete things, and in relation to the whole; always with a forward-looking vision. It is, therefore, to recognize the differences and the conflicts between those single elements and use them as spaces of encounter and exchange, where the cohesion of the multiple system is built. Based on this methodology, the result is a constellation of sequential operations, a chain of linked pieces along the valley of the Cardener River, which ensure the strengthening of identity.
