Open Prison Architecture
As a part of the debate on penitentiary architecture, this book proposes a critical interpretation of the conceptual elements and design approaches involved. This proposal, more than others, may “mend” the relationship between theoretical conception and the actual building practice for a prison. The interpretation is developed from the idea that the architectural project, when it materialises in a built structure, is always the material expression of an abstract idea and of a specific vision of the world which manifests itself through the architectural consistency of the building and of the built spaces. The text presented here focuses on the creation of organisational-functional tools f...
Transforming Our World Through Universal Design for Human Development
An environment, or any building product or service in it, should ideally be designed to meet the needs of all those who wish to use it. Universal Design is the design and composition of environments, products, and services so that they can be accessed, understood and used to the greatest extent possible by all people, regardless of their age, size, ability or disability. It creates products, services and environments that meet people’s needs. In short, Universal Design is good design. This book presents the proceedings of UD2022, the 6th International Conference on Universal Design, held from 7 - 9 September 2022 in Brescia, Italy. The conference is targeted at professionals and academics ...
Looking to methods and tools for the Research in Design and Architectural Technology
The volume presents the research experience of young researchers and PhD candidates, dealing with the Italian scientific area 08-C1 (Design and Technology of Architecture), with a discussion about scientific issues and methodologies applied. The aim is to express the methodological and investigation features of the issues faced by the researchers, along with the effectiveness of their researches design, giving the reader an immediate overview of the 08-C1 doctoral experience. Beside young researchers statements as witnesses of this research path, the volume collects professors critical contribution, to enrich the comprehensive picture of the progression and methodologies of the doctoral researches presented.
Five Albanian Villages
This book is the result of a research project designed and carried out at the Department of Architecture, University of Florence. This research was based on the transfer of knowledge from members of the Albanian Diaspora in Italy (university students, young architects and researchers) to their home country. This unique process blazed a trail in the Albania-related studies by creating a methodology, which could be replicated not only in Albanian rural contexts, but also elsewhere. The book constitutes a structured tool for generating sustainable and socially inclusive territorial development processes in five lesser-known Albanian cultural sites. Their tangible and intangible cultural heritage was seen as a driving factor for triggering development processes aimed at improving the inhabitants’ quality of life and strengthening local identity and social networks. Through concrete proposals and strategies, the book offers scenarios and solutions capable of enhancing the potential of each village and, at the same time, counteracting the effects of land abandonment that so often characterise them.

La fruizione inclusiva nel progetto di restauro: il caso degli anfiteatri romani
Gli anfiteatri romani costituiscono un interessante campo di indagine e consentono di analizzare e classificare i dissesti strutturali, le forme di degrado ricorrenti e le anomalie legate alla loro accessibilità. Tali criticità emergono, in particolare, dall’esame di due interessanti casi studio, l’Anfiteatro romano di Tarragona, in Spagna, e l’Anfiteatro romano di Santa Maria Capua Vetere, in Italia. Attraverso un’interpretazione contestuale delle testimonianze letterarie, storiografiche e iconografiche, alla luce delle competenze proprie del restauro architettonico e di una campagna conoscitiva in situ supportata da rilievi, indagini diagnostiche e survey, si individuano i principali nodi teoretici e progettuali connessi al restauro e alla valorizzazione di tali complessi monumentali: le fasi della conoscenza, della conservazione, della fruizione e della gestione, la manutenzione programmata e il costante monitoraggio.
