the course is divided into theoretical lessons aimed at critical understanding of the historical and contemporary orientations inherent to landscape design; design experimentation through guided inspections of the study area; classroom design exercises and seminars; periodic reviews of documents in progress.
Through these activities we intend to enable students to acquire the following skills:
Read and interpret the landscape as a complex and dynamic system of relationships between soils, waters, ecologies and society;
Promote full mastery of methodological tools with which to appropriate the themes of the landscape project understood as the main demands of civil society;
Ability to manage the processes of a transdisciplinary, multidimensional and circular design in which theory and practice, analysis and proposal are not conceived as separate moments;
Ability to analyze and evaluate the ecosystem and geo-pedological component affected by the project interventions
Knowing how to communicate the project effectively through the appropriate use of landscape design tools and the reading of complex phenomena

The module aims to address the issue of urban design, with particular reference to the human scale of the pedestrian and the re-design of public space.
In particular, the lessons will concern: the design of urban public space, from the square (with all its contemporary hybridizations), to the external spaces of residential buildings, with particular reference to peripheral contexts, where an enormous amount of residential space has been built in the last sixty years, without adequate planning of open spaces.
Compositional issues concerning the relationship between the architectural morphology of building fabrics and the system of urban voids to be redeveloped will be addressed, in a perceptive key for evaluating the urban landscape. The relationship between urban fronts and human activities in public space; the design of the different elements that make up the urban space, which includes the work on the ground, paving, vegetation, furnishing elements, limits, edges, height differences, etc.
The lessons will systematically address the theme of urban space design, paying attention to building a methodological approach useful to students.
In the first part of the course, a cycle of prodromal lessons with respect to the project will be taught, in which exemplary cases, reference designers and bibliographic references will be provided.
