Programme

The course proposes the study of an historical building or landscape, urban or extra urban.
Through ex-cathedra lectures, seminars and weekly reviews, the students will be led during the different phases of critical interpretation and philological analysis (knowledge and study of the literature, research in the relevant archives, exegesis of the textual and iconographic sources, direct observation and survey, drawings of the transformation phases, reading of permanence and transformation, interpretative sketches etc.).
Individual or group research is suited to being used as a project tool, useful to build guide lines or specific restoration and enhancement projects.
Lectures and design exercises are carried out with the support of specialized external collaborations (officials of public institutions, businesses and restorers).
