Architecture

The main teaching objective is to explain the reasons (“why”) and the approaches / tools (“how”) of urban planning. Among its various definitions, urban planning can be described as a craft with a high political content. Throughout time, it interpreted and acted in different ways in the different socio-spatial configurations and contexts (geographical, socio-economic, political and cultural), at the same time contributing (directly or indirectly) to their realization. Although its main instrument is spatial regulation, it makes use of different approaches, models, methods and tools, which the course aims at critically analyzing. The course introduces the different main component of urban planning, which will be tackled in different modules (see also the window dedicated to “svolgimento”). Beyond a general introduction and the exercise, the course is articulated in 4 modules that are: a) Planning Theory; b) Planning History; c) Urban History and Urban Theories; d) Planning Techniques. Modul a) Planning Theory, will tackle the nature of Urban Planning (what it is), its meaning and role (what it is for), and how it works. Modul b) Planning History, will introduce the origins of Spatial Planning (primeval and fundamental acts of spatial control), and those of Modern Urban Planning (response to urbanisation problems, relation between spatial control and social control, between spatial plans and the political). Modul c) Urban History and Urban Theories will sketch the essential features of Urban History (mainly modern and contemporary) and the main Urban Theories (what is a City, what do we mean by ‘urban’), elaborated looking at urban transformations between XIX and XXI centuries. Modul d) Planning Techniques, deals with the practice of Urban Planning exploring how it works to exercise its own essential functions, starting with spatial regulation and land uses, with a focus is on its tools and the capacities that it requires.

No prior specific knowledge is required.

There is not one specific compulsory reading, but students can choose a book from the bibliography according to their own interests (see below).

Attending the lectures is suggested, but it is not compulsory.

The final exam consists in the discussion of the subject matter, exercise included. For the workshop, students are expected to work in group (usually 3-4 people), while they will be examined individually for the evaluation of acquired knowledge, on the content of the lectures and of readings. During the semester, students attending the course can do a mid-term written proof on the main theoretical part of the programme (moduls a, b, c), which – if positively passed - will allow reducing the subjects of oral examination. For the final evaluation, the whole activity is taken into consideration. Students not attending the course are required to prepare themselves autonomously, elaborating the exercise, and by choosing at least one book from those indicated in the bibliography (to be agreed on in advance), studying the teaching materials (available online at: Sapienza e-learning platform: Urbanistica_Barbara Pizzo), and deepening the topics included in the presentations through following the bibliographic references they contain.

Bibliographical references are intended to testify the richness and plurality of Planning approaches. Books are subdivided into 3 main groups. Each student is expected to choose a book (to be agreed on in advance) for the final evaluation. A specific lecture is dedicated at introducing each book in terms of approach, structure and content. During some lectures or seminars, further bibliographical references may be suggested as an in-depth study (and they will be reported in the slides or hand-outs of the lecture). (For the list of books, see the Italian version, above) English books and essays are available on request and can be used both by Italian and by foreign students - The final proof in Italian is compulsory.

The course provides lectures, seminars and an exercise. The workshop (exercise) aims at experimenting the 'translation' of theories into practices (and viceversa), and/or as the implementation of a chosen methodology among the presented ones. It foresees the following steps: 1. Reading and interpreting a spatial context through its current socio-spatial phenomena, interpreted diachronically and at different scales. 2a. Critical interpretation of historical transformations (distinguishing among causes and their effects). 2b. Critical interpretation of the planning history (visions, approaches, methods, tools introduced by Planning through time). 3a. Definition of possible scenarios and the related planning tool / or tools useful to drive the change in the chosen direction - and / or to solve a problem (also in ‘strategic’ perspective). 3b. Definition of the ‘knowledge’ to be used to deepen and to solve the questions (sectoral analyses as a result of a particular interpretation of the context and its problems).

Course Program for Urban Planning I, Professor Marsia Marino Channel 3 (Lar-Pinn) Academic Year 2023/24 LECTURE SCHEDULE LOCATION AND CLASSROOM TUESDAY: 08:30 AM - 12:30 PM Valle Giulia – Room V6 THURSDAY: 09:30 AM - 1:00 PM Valle Giulia – Room V13 Referring Professor: Professor Arch. Marsia Marino Office Hours: Tuesday from 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM by appointment Email: marsia.marino@uniroma1.it General Objective of the Course The course aims to equip students with the ability to interpret the relationships between the processes of urban and territorial transformation and the theories and tools of urban planning. To this end, the main themes of the scientific-disciplinary debate will be explored, providing a first approach to urban planning in its theoretical, technical, and design aspects. Course Structure The course is divided into two complementary teaching modules: Module 1 | Theoretical Lectures The lectures delve into theoretical-methodological insights and are supplemented with design references related to experiences in modern and contemporary urban culture, predominantly European. The topics are structured around three main themes: • The origins of modern urban planning in Europe; • Current Italian urban planning instruments; • Emerging themes in urban planning. Module 2 | Laboratory-style Exercises (group work) The learning path includes four intermediate submissions on the progress of the laboratory exercise, each at the end of the respective assignment: • Table 1 – Territorial Framing_Scale; • Table 2 – Analysis of the Landscape-environmental System and Historical-cultural Values_Scale; • Table 3 – Analysis of the Settlement-morphological System; • Table 4 – Analysis of the Services and Infrastructure System. Lecture Contents by Themes Module 1 | Theoretical Lectures • Theme 1 | Origins of Modern Urban Planning in Europe This section succinctly illustrates the historical path through which, in relation to the dynamics of fundamental socio-economic models, the modern city is formed and undergoes crises (post-industrial period: 19th-century Industrial Revolution). In particular, it analyzes the reasons why the discipline of urban planning was established in an attempt to govern the complexities of the phenomena accompanying the development of the 19th-century industrial city. • Theme 2 | Italian Urban Planning Tools This section illustrates the "tools" of contemporary Italian urban planning in relation to the evolution of the social and economic system and the legislative framework. In particular, the lessons related to this theme delve into the main urban planning instruments at the territorial and urban scale, provided by current legislation, and provide technical urban planning notions. • Theme 3 | Emerging Themes in Urban Planning This section illustrates some innovative planning experiences being experimented in Europe and Italy, in relation to increased sensitivity towards social and environmental issues. In particular, it delves into the contributions of urban planning to the themes of sustainable development, safeguarding environmental resources, climate change, and urban welfare. Module 2 | Laboratory-style Exercise The planned exercise aims to gain familiarity with the main tools of urban planning, putting into practice the theories and techniques acquired during Module 1 of theoretical lectures. Through a classroom Laboratory activity, students are called to engage with: Basic cartography and thematic maps; Site inspection techniques; General and thematic analysis; Objective and critical urban analysis; General and sector-specific legislation; Urban planning parameters and indices; Basic legends and themes; Thematic research on the internet; Representation and layout techniques; Technical implementation rules; Local urban planning tools; Sizing and calculations. The exercise aims to develop an in-depth understanding and critical analysis of the territory, and the methodology is divided into two main phases: Phase 1 | In-depth Knowledge of the Territory (objective analysis) The submissions, drafted at a scale of 1:10,000 and 1:5,000, concern the analysis and understanding of the existing territory and its planned layout with the aim of identifying the structural elements of the territory divided by systems (the Landscape-environmental System and historical-cultural values; the Settlement-morphological System and the elements characterizing urban morphology; the Services and Infrastructure System). The submissions must be accompanied by textual descriptions and photographs on individual themes and must include the study of the area's relationships with the context, highlighting the accessibility system to the area, the main points of social aggregation, the main urban functions located in the reference sector, and the system of routes and directions. This phase aims to understand the territorial context. In this phase, one learns to "Read the city." In this phase, urban systems and components are analyzed as they appear, without a critical judgment. Submissions related to Phase 1: Table 1 – Territorial Framing_Scale 1:10,000; Table 2 – Analysis of the Landscape-environmental System and Historical-cultural Values_Scale 1:5,000; Table 3 – Analysis of the Landscape-environmental System and Historical-cultural Values_Scale 1:5,000; Table 4 – Analysis of the Services and Infrastructure System_Scale 1:5,000. Phase 2 | Critical Evaluation of the Territory (critical analysis) Simultaneously, downstream from the urban analysis at a scale of 1:10,000 and 1:5,000 carried out in the first phase of "In-depth Knowledge of the Territory," submissions 2, 3, and 4 (Table 2.1, 3.1, 4.1) will address the following issues related to a critical analysis of the territory. Schemes out of scale will be developed for each system to identify: existing values/qualities on which to base a possible "redevelopment" project (RESOURCE SCHEME); problems and negative situations for which the possible "project" is called to find suitable solutions (CRITICISM SCHEME); recognisable potential in some components and/or aggregations of components (according to the relationships between them) that can represent significant opportunities to be "exploited" in the "project" (POTENTIAL SCHEME); In this phase, urban systems and components are analyzed based on a critical judgment in order to define CRITICALITIES, POTENTIALS, and RESOURCES. Submissions related to Phase 2: Table 2.1 – Schemes of criticalities, potentials, and resources of the Landscape-environmental System and Historical-cultural Values; Table 3.1 – Schemes of criticalities, potentials, and resources of the Settlement-morphological System; Table 3.1 – Schemes of criticalities, potentials, and resources of the Services and Infrastructure System.

For revisions, it is necessary to book an appointment by providing the professor with a list of interested groups. The list of booked appointments must reach the professor on the morning of the respective revision. Students will be attended to in order of booking, and they must have the tables printed BEFORE BEING CALLED!!! Evaluation Methods and Criteria The final exam grade is unique and individual and will be the result of the two modules: • Group grade for the laboratory activity (in the event of a significant difference in the involvement and contribution of individual members to the group activity during the exam, the partial grade for the laboratory activity may differ); • Individual grade for theoretical topics. The exam will be conducted in a group (all group members must take the exam in the same session and in the same exam call). The group evaluation for the laboratory exercise will take place during the final exam. At the end of the group's presentation of the work produced during the laboratory activity, the professor will ask individual questions to each member on the following topics: Laboratory work, Theoretical-methodological topics covered during the lectures; Reference bibliography. At the end of the exam, each examinee will have their own individual grade (which will be the sum of the group grade for the laboratory activity and the individual grade for theoretical topics. The grades of the group members may therefore differ, based on the performance of the individual oral exam, even on the basis of the same group grade for the exercise). The evaluation will take into account the following parameters: Active participation in lectures; Respect for the organization and instructions provided by the professor (which also includes compliance with deadlines, punctuality in lectures, and in the production and submission of assignments and/or assigned topics); Quality of work, completeness, presentation, and graphic rendering of the submissions, quality of oral presentation, ability to synthesize, understand, acquire, and master the content.

CONTENTS The design criteria and the different urban planning and programming intervention tools will be discussed, placing them in a non-fragmentary logic that requires a holistic, negotiating, participatory approach in the identification/construction of both the objectives/problems and the plans/solutions. Therefore proposition and construction, or reconstruction, of urban relationships and functions aimed at the "production" of urban quality, environmentally sustainable, and the formation of local identity. Based on this information, students will propose a plan or project theme. The concepts, i.e. the needs, deriving from multiple disciplines will come together in the plans and/or projects. Based on this information, students will propose a plan or project theme. The concepts, i.e. the needs, deriving from multiple disciplines will come together in the plans and/or projects. - Risk and vulnerability analysis in order to identify the overall safety conditions, the exposure to the various risks, natural and otherwise, to which urban settlements are subject, both when they are ancient realities, therefore with serious and multiple static-structural and/or geomorphological issues, or when instead they are caused by current or past uses such as for example. ex-industrial areas to be reclaimed. - Static and dynamic perceptual analysis as a tool for identifying/building the urban image. - The analysis and evaluation of environmental resources for design purposes, i.e. the recognition and valorisation of local conditions to be seen not as mere constraints but instead to be considered as design indications. ORGANIZATION The course is organized into four parts: Part 1 Purpose and usefulness of urban planning 1. Description and definition of the indicators of the anthropized space and the basic elements of the discipline 2. The social, economic, cultural and environmental components essential in the governance of spatial transformations and their presence in planning 3. Environmental respect and the potential of the context: study and valorisation of limits and resources 4. Urban planning between urban planning and urban planning techniques Part 2 Contemporary phenomenology 1. Birth and evolution of the concept of the modern city 2. The urban structure as a complex system to be designed: vulnerability, the social, the economy, the imago 3. Comparison with environmental and demographic emergencies 4. The different declinations in various geographical areas 5. Issues related to globalization Part 3 Operation 1. The overall plan/project: a dynamic general picture of urban phenomena 2. The local urban planning project: functions, poles, accessibility and doors, images of the city 3. Hypotheses of design solutions: representative typologies and case studies 4. The tools of urban policies and urban planning 5. Effectiveness and efficiency as indicators 6. Method of comparing competing or conflicting interests Part 4 Time and outcomes of choices 1. The choice of objectives and their modification 2. Direct and deferred externalities 3. Results that can change in value and meaning

"SELF-ASSESSMENT" QUESTIONNAIRE At the beginning of the Course, a Questionnaire will be submitted to the students in order to know the level of knowledge of the topics of the Course itself according to a "Self-assessment" method which in any case will not affect the final evaluation.
