Programme

The course aims to accompany students in the final critical reflection on the different educational experiences in the three and two academic years in the restoration field. To this end, culture of architectural heritage themes, that already have been addressed during the studies (conservation, restoration and reconstruction in archaeology (era corretto anche come lo aveva scritto lei: gli inglesi però lo scrivono così), monumental, urban and architectural contexts regionalist) are subject of analysis. Also, during the semester, the students are offered a possible confrontation with the theoretical research on architectural design in the sub-class of Architectural and urban design. Lectures and design exercises are carried out with the support of specialized external collaborations (experts, officials of public institutions, businesses and restorers).

2. Repeat, recovery and restoration: a casuistry
3. Culture of places (public space and architecture)
4. The restoration of twentieth century architecture in Rome
5. The recovery of twentieth century "potential landscapes" in Rome (EUR)
