Pollica (Salerno, Italy), 23-27 October 2015
INTBAU Italy is promoting a design workshop dedicated to living traditions and smart growth. The project is supporting local communities to govern changes and to bring the right people together for a long-lasting wellness and best practices dissemination.
In 2013 the Unesco Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage inscribed The Mediterranean Diet, nominated by Spain, Greece, Italy (Pollica and its territory) and Morocco, on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
The Mediterranean Diet, where diet in Greek means way of life, is assumed as a paradigmatic knowledge continuously inspiring practices that affect the agrarian and urban landscape, the ways of socializing and food culture and production too.
The design charrette will include many on site actions, observational drawing, place mapping, visualizing landscape values, site documentation, urban infill projects, rehabilitation proposals in order to make communities and people able to create sustainable and efficient places where beauty could be settled in different forms and at diverse scales.
The workshop is open to everybody interested about design for places and smart growth: measured drawing, agrarian urbanism, environmental design, architecture, sustainable technologies, color design, food culture, smart cities.
Activities and events will be managed by INTBAU ITALIA.
Lecturers from Politecnico di Milano, Politecnico di Bari and International Partners.
