Summary: | "The construction of a renewed habitability of the contemporary Alpine space requires
a profound critical revision of the ways of looking and of the cultures concerning
the theme of re-use of the built heritage.
Over the last few decades, a sort of crystallization of imaginaries, operational practices
and development ideas has emerged around the two terms of re-use and heritage
and their ways of interaction, which today is likely to be an obstacle to the
construction of new development scenarios for the Alpine region. Trying to imagine
new values and meanings of the concepts of reuse and heritage, however, requires
the questioning of those patrimonialization cultures that have served as the ultimate
framework for the project of the Alpine space.
The essay reconstructs those design processes that, starting from a renewed productive
vision of the mountain, attempt today to overcome a hypostatized vision
of the conventional cultural landscape produced by the patrimonialist paradigm, to
embrace a transformative attitude of the heritage based on the materic character of
the basic elements of the Alpine space.
In particular we want to underline how the contemporary design culture in the Alps
is directed to the development of synthetic languages aimed at capturing the stratified
and diachronic dimension of the built landscape through metasemic cognitive
and interpretative practices.
It is an attitude that, against a background of the change in perspective brought
about by climate change and environmental issues, allows the maximization of the
opportunities and physical resources recovered in the place, perfectly in line with
the aptitude for the continuous re-use of the Alpine civilizations of the past, which
focuses on the awareness of participating in a constructive process of transformation
of the long lasting Alpine territory." |
