GARDENS: REGENERATION CELLS
IN THE CONTEMPORARY CITY
Deadline postponed
to 15 November '24
No civilizations in the world has not felt the needs to have its gardens
Pierre Grimal
The call is the second initiative of Iran_Lab|Shared Research and Teaching (scientific coordinator A. De Cesaris) created in December 2022 within the Internationalization Unit (scientific coordinator prof. Federica Dal Falco) of the PDTA Department, Sapienza University of Rome.
This second call is part of the debate and experimentations of new forms and figurations of actions for the regeneration of the contemporary city.
In particular, visions capable to reinterpret the typology of garden in order to provide sustainable answers to the new needs of contemporary urban life.
Call for Visions is addressed to all students, architects, artists and designers who intend to bring innovation in the theme of gardens with reference to the reality of our contemporary cities.
We ask visions, ideas, even visionary solutions.
Questions
• How the garden can be reinterpreted today to meet the needs of contemporary society
• Can the garden, due to its small size compared to parks, represent an element of regeneration in the dense building fabric of the consolidated city??
• Can the garden become the bearer of ecological demands? In what manner?
• What role to give to the fence? Does it have to disappear? Can it become three-dimensional and accommodate services?
• Can the garden detach itself from the ground? How?
