OVERVIEW

Landscape design requires a multidisciplinary ability for reading and understanding the project site. The Studio proposes a design path that expresses cultural contents starting from the interpretation of the context at different dimensional levels and in coherence with the transformations that characterized it and with the inhabitants’ needs.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course aims to provide students, through theoretical lectures, site visits and practical exercises, with the methods and techniques for analyzing and designing open spaces and green areas. The goal is to complete a comprehensive urban landscape architecture project over the course of the year, with particular focus on the redevelopment of green and undeveloped areas.
