Critical ordering and operational testing on issues related to the culture of the historical and artistic heritage, led by a philological and constructive reading of arguments submitted during the course. Integration between theoretical research of architectural design and the themes of restoration, conservation and reconstruction in archaeology, monumental and contexts of regionalist architecture.

materiale didattico
Within this framework, architectural restoration is understood as a ‘project of knowledge’, in which the cognitive phase does not constitute a preliminary and separate stage, but rather forms an integral and structuring component of the design process. Accordingly, the course adopts an inter-scalar approach –from territory to landscape, to the city, to the urban fabric, and to the building, whether monumental or part of the ordinary built environment –grounded in the historical-critical interpretation of formative processes, material stratifications and transformations. Particular attention is paid to construction techniques and components, as well as to the historical, artistic, cultural and anthropological values they embody.
Teaching is delivered primarily through seminars, supported by targeted lectures, and addresses theoretical, technical, regulatory and operational aspects, in accordance with the Italian Cultural Heritage and Landscape Code and the Public Procurement Code, within the perspective of preventive and planned conservation. The module is developed on the same case studies as those addressed in the Architectural Heritage Restoration Laboratory.
Within this context, particular emphasis is placed on the study of archaeological parks and historic urban green spaces, in line with the specific characteristics of the selected contexts. The module supports the development of knowledge-based outputs, including thematic cartography, two- and three-dimensional drawings of architecture and landscape, and the preparation of technical written documentation. To this end, students are introduced to methods of historical analysis – particularly process-based approaches – and are guided in the informed use of specialist literature, treatises, regulatory frameworks, and digital systems for representation and cataloguing, in accordance with shared standards.

The module, integral to and closely coordinated with the other activities of the Laboratory, addresses methods for the reading, analysis and interpretation of historical architecture and landscapes in relation to restoration design.Within this framework, architectural restoration is understood as a ‘project of knowledge’, in which the cognitive phase does not constitute a preliminary and separate stage, but rather forms an integral and structuring component of the design process.
