Abstract

The aim of the book is to explore the evolution of both architecture and urban space, in terms of their mutual relationship expressed within space, purpose, and time. In a world where architecture and urban landscapes seem to becoming increasingly “iconic” the book aims to going on in two ways: on one hand studying the influence of the concrete (o real) architecture on urban space; on the other hand give a deep look inside the “iconic” investigating the relationship between what we see –images, digital nets etc. - and what we really live in cities and urban landscapes. The recent economical crisis has probably reshaped the urban transformation especially in Mediterranean countries. The sustainability has become a “must” not only by a technological point of view. If one is charged to design a space or a building will have the duty of put them in a cultural system. Building without culture means only spoiling the environments. Culture means also context and this last is a complicated layering of heritage, ways of living, space practices, aesthetic matter (proportion, facades composition, roofs shapes), places specificity that are supposed to be valorized. Establishing a dialogue and following patterns means wondering in which way architectural and urban design could reshape our urban spaces for the future.
