Abstract
During the last two decades, the idea of landscape has been assumed as a generative model for urban design. This concept has been proposed and supported not only by a great interpreter of contemporary architecture like Rem Koolhaas, but it has permeated a large number of international theories that are constituting a disciplinary advancement along this path. Perhaps, the most complete and interesting work on the historical and disciplinary formalisation of such approach is due to Charles Waldheim [1], who himself defined it as Landscape Urbanism. Defining specific reading and analysis instruments together with own design methods, capable of a transdisciplinary dialogue with geography, vegetable and biological world's languages, landscape urbanism can undoubtedly obtain more performing purposes than the ones achieved by traditional urban planning. This is why the perspective from which we look at the interface between engineering and architecture leads us to recognize urbanism, specially landscape urbanism, as the exemplary place of such disciplinary hybridization.File | Dimensione del file | Formato | |
