DESIGN TECNOLOGICO RIGENERATIVO PER NUTRIRE GLI SCENARI URBANI DEL FUTURO
The regenerative design provides buildings in harmony with nature, with limited eco-logical footprint and co-evolutionary generative principles. If the entire design process follows the "Cradle to Cradle" approach, the synergic relationship between the building and the surrounding environment increases; thanks to its materials (biotic and trans-formed-biotic), the building assumes the behaviour of an organism that interacts, adapts, evolves with the context. It uses the energy of the sun and the earth's resources, produces oxygen and CO2 sequestration, closes the cycle of water and waste, breathes, and it is built with recyclable materials at the end of their useful life. The contribution illustrates the conceptual structure of the evaluation model and the criteria on which the technologi-cal-design model, founded on these principles, is based
Let us sow the seed of awareness: Ideals vs ideologies
This contingent historical period is characterized by a strong dichotomy: the difficulty of programming and planning the future due to the immanence of the pandemic crisis and the impetus towards innovation in the political world that offers effective instruments to think about production sectors in an eco-oriented key. We will ask Filippo de Rossi, responsible for editing the National Research Programme – NRP 2021-2027 of the Ministry of University and Research about his point of view, his recipe, his secret ingredient so that the world of Research in the construction sector can make a real ecological transition thanks to which an effective strategy for the development of new paradigms, a multi-perspective of Research can be implemented
Il valore comunicativo-visivo dei festival d’arte ambientale/ Communicative-visual value of environmental art festival
Molte forme d’arte lasciano il segno nella cultura artistica contemporanea come complesso sistema di idee ed emozioni, percezioni e stimoli alla riflessione. Il ruolo delle installazioni artistiche nei contesti storici, tocca il tema dell’impermanenza tra necessità e piacere, mostrando come le opere d’arte diventino una necessità non solo per l’artista ma soprattutto per gli spazi urbani che le accolgono e per le persone che vi abitano. Il valore socio-culturale di questo tipo di eventi fa parte del ruolo catartico e pedagogico dell’arte che permette agli spazi urbani di trovare spunti di valorizzazione e alle persone di provare l’emozione dell’appartenenza. Le considerazioni contenute nel contributo sono il risultato di molti anni di collaborazione scientifica tra i due autori sui temi del rapporto tra arte e architettura, e approfondiscono due casi fortemente rappresentativi: il Festival biennale di Arte Ambientale Seminaria Sogninterra a Maranola e la Biennale d’Arte dell’Avana.Many forms of art leave their imprint on contemporary art culture as a complex system of ideas and emotions, perceptions and stimuli for reflection. The role of artistic installations in historical contexts is related to the impermanence between necessity and pleasure, showing how works of art become a necessity not only for the artist
but above all for the urban spaces that welcome them and for the people who live there. The socio-cultural value of this kind of event is part of the cathartic and pedagogical role of art, which allows urban spaces to find ideas for enhancement and people to experience the emotion of belonging. The considerations contained in the contribution are the result of many years of scientific collaboration between the two authors on the issues of the relationship between art and architecture, and deepen two strongly representative cases: the biennial Festival of Environmental Art Seminar Sogninterra in Maranola and the Havana Art Biennal
La valutazione dei consumi energetici per l'illuminazione: il LENI e la UNI EN 15193
La procedura per la certificazione energetica dell'edificio prevede la valutazione delle prestazioni energetiche degli impianti di illuminazione per il settore terziario. Anche se tale aspetto non è ancora stato recepito in termini attuativi dalla normativa italiana, nel futuro si dovrà necessariamente tenere conto dei consumi elettrici per l'illuminazione. Nel capitolo sono illustrate le procedure per la valutazione degli indici di prestazione energetica per l'illuminazione ed indicazioni sulle strategie da adottare per conseguire risparmi
Experimental design on field: teaching methodology and educational experience
The most appropriate use of materials and construction techniques has characterized whole
historical periods and defined specific physical and geographical human habitat. Rethinking deeply
on architectural features of the historical buildings and the most appropriate technologies, in order to
interpret by design each need of transformation, is the precondition to spread awareness of the
intimate connection between local resources and "Technological Footprint" , which is the result of
all structural and social processes producing the built historical and layered context. This approach
should guide all project actions of retrofit, rehabilitation and restoration. Especially in the case of
minor historical centers, having important historical, archaeological and landscape quality, the
design action taken with ancient materials in order to meet modern needs, can enhance the
particular characteristics, limiting the critical issues and improving performance.
This paper illustrates teaching methodologies and educational experience carried out by students of
the Course: "Project of building rehabilitation", together with Erasmus students of Polytechnic
University of Madrid and Polytechnic University din Timisoara, as part of the project actions for
preservation of Campi Flegrei, conducted by the Department DICEA of the University of Naples
“Federico II”.
The project experience on field, outside the university classrooms, in an international comparison
(group work with colleagues from other universities and nationality) is a major strength of this
experimental teaching. In relation to the specific issues dealt, the didactic methodology
combined/alternated front lessons, direct and participatory debate with students and lab activities.
The lab phase allowed a close examination of the issues faced, applying them to a real case study:
the identity recovery and urban regeneration of the rural village of Cappella in Bacoli (NA).
The workshop was divided into three phases:
1) Specialized Seminars, which provided the basic technical knowledge; front lessons gave the
necessary knowledge mainly concerning logics at the base of integrated national and international
strategies about rehabilitation and restoration.
2) Design on field, during which the students, divided into 17 groups, were involved in the analysis
of architectural (construction features, identity of architectural elements, ...) and social issue
(population needs and local tradition).
3) Dissemination, which is the verify phase during which the groups submit and describe to local
administrators and associations the design proposals.
The didactic approach of the Lab activities is linked with the key competences reported in the
European recommendations, linked not only with knowledge, but also with being able to be and do.
The methods, such as drawing from life, interview, technological relief in sight and instrumental
analysis, led the groups to develop project proposals presented in the final day.
