(objectives)
The course aims to provide basic knowledge on phenomena related to climate change and environmental risks and on technological measures of prevention, mitigation and adaptation to face these challenges. The course aims to examine the main technological solutions to be adopted for landscape architecture and environmental design and to provide the necessary tools for the conscious choice and the correct use of natural and artificial materials, according to the 'Green -Blue Infrastructure '(GBI) approach. The course aims to facilitate the understanding of the main classes of building materials to be used in the open space and in the urban envelope, evaluating their characteristics, properties and performance, as well as the methods of use, favoring "nature-based solutions" (NBS). Through the analysis of case studies and the study of product data sheets, the course aims to develop an adequate critical capacity in the selection of solutions, materials and design parameters useful to satisfy the complex requirement framework that characterizes the open space and the built environment. 1) Knowledge and understanding Acquire knowledges about the basic methodological-operational aspects related to i) the understanding of the main environmental phenomena that influence the project in the urban space ii) the correct selection and the design of technologies and building materials applicable to open spaces and urban envelope 2) Knowledge and applied understanding skills Acquire the ability to understand environmental phenomena at the landscape and urban scale, in order to identify technological solutions and effective products in the processes of analysis and transformation of the built environment, justifying the choices in the context of environmental technological design with reference to open spaces 3) Autonomy of judgment Acquire the skills to independently identify and collect additional information necessary to achieve awareness of natural phenomena and their evolution. Develope the capacity of interpretation of the information available in the context of an urban-scale project 4) Communication skills Display competences in communicating information and concepts, discussing issues about the landscape and the urban environment and technological solutions or materials to be used in the project. Develope the capacity of choosing the appropriate form and means of communication for the interlocutor (specialist or not) 5) Ability to learn Acquire the abilities in the field of technologies and materials to be applied to open spaces, also in relation to the progressive innovation of production and construction processes. Demonstrate independence and proficiency in new and updated skills.

(syllabus)
The student will be introduced to the concepts of 1) Green Blue Infrastructure; and 2) degradation, preservation and restoration of the various materials. It will focus on the main technologies and techniques of use of each class of material, the performance aspects of devices and systems, environmental issues and opportunities, including from a "life cycle assessment" perspective. Through the study of case studies, the theoretical and practical aspects of the materials, technologies, devices and systems used in the landscape project, redevelopment, enhancement and environmental restoration will be addressed. 1. Green Infrastructure planning and design: An introduction 2. Green Infrastructure: A multifunctional and multiscale approach - Part I 3. Green Infrastructure: A multifunctional and multiscale approach - Part II 4. GI Strategies and Solutions for people and the environment 5. Water Sensitive Urban Design - Part I 6. Water Sensitive Urban Design - Part II 7. Biophilic design 8. Design-out waste through Green Infrastructure 9. Identifying and assessing benefits from Green Infrastructure - Part I 10. Identifying and assessing benefits from Green Infrastructure - Part II
