Educational objectives The course aims to introduce students to the principles of landscape restoration. Restoration is understood as a process of gaining knowledge to preserve values, repair degradation, and manage and improve what remains. Landscape is seen as a complex system of relationships between human and natural elements within a territory. Architectural and naturalistic elements, along with economic, productive, social, perceptive, and symbolic relationships, have developed over time in a territory and may still be present and perceptible today, either in part or in whole, forming the basis for landscape restoration. To this end, the course aims to equip students with the tools to investigate and understand both tangible and intangible elements of the landscape, including rural, urban, and, in particular cases, historic parks. It then explores issues related to landscape heritage protection, recognising the value of these elements, identifying opportunities to mitigate degradation and enhance landscape quality, promoting ways to valorise and share the acquired knowledge with the public, as well as the long-term management of plant materials.

| 10588657 | LANDSCAPE AESTHETICS [M-FIL/04] [ITA] | 2nd | 1st | 6 |
Educational objectives In this course, landscape is considered from two different points of view: landscape as an aesthetical phenomenon and as a generator of new aesthetical experiences. To fulfill this purpose, the course will go back to the history of philosophical theories about landscape from the 20th and first years of the 21st century, also in comparison with other disciplines, such as geography, ecology, botany, sociology, etc. The course will also analyze some conceptual couples that today play a central role in any reflection about landscape: protection and innovation, aesthetics and aestheticization, sustainability and exploitation, openness and restriction, and so on. The course must provide students with the right conceptual basis to understand which landscape ideas are involved in their planning and aesthetical categories — often unrecognized, if not removed — lead in a more or less conscious way the actual policies of landscape design.
a) Knowledge and understanding
- the course provides students with advanced knowledges on contemporary aesthetics and, concerning landscape, it provides specific understanding skills also related to interdisciplinary research spaces;
b) Applying knowledge and understanding
The course allows the application of the acquired knowledges to face new research and design scenarios, which can not be solved only with the traditional tools of landscape architecture;
c) Making judgements
Students acquire the ability to formulate independent assessments, to deal with complex sets of problems and to outline general frameworks also starting from informations coming from heterogeneous sources, or limited, or incomplete. Social and ethical responsibilities related to the specific landscape design are also aboarded, developed and stimulated.
d) Communication skills
students learn how to communicate their knowledges to specialists and non-specialist interlocutors.
e) Learning skills
student learns to study in a autonomous way, organizing their original research paths and bibliographies from Italian texts, but also getting hold of a specialized international lexicon (English, German and French).

Educational objectives The educational objectives of the course concern learning methods and tools for landscape design, with reference to cultural orientations of the historical and contemporary disciplinary debate. In particular, they will learn to design open spaces in urban and peri-urban contexts, addressing urgent and unavoidable challenges such as climate adaptation, the recovery of environmental quality, social inclusion. The course, through an interdisciplinary working method, in synergy with the Economic assessment and water management modules, will provide the tools to design using water, soil, vegetation and climate as design materials, to place the ecological and social context at the centre of the design exploration and not as a background, to combine aesthetic, functional and environmental choices , art and science.
Students will acquire the ability to apply knowledge aimed at the methodological approach and resolution of complex design problems, landscape organization, transformation, and management, taking into account the social needs and values, limitations, and potential of landscape and environmental contexts. They will also develop critical skills in choosing spatial solutions, construction technologies, and agronomic techniques appropriate to the context.

Educational objectives ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN
The objective of course is transmission of methods and tools necessary for comprehension of physical and performance quality of components characterizing urban and rural spaces, with the aim of activating a process of sustainable design of built environment oriented to reduction of emissions into atmosphere and pollution of air, water and soil; reduction of environmental load of transformations and consumption of resources; increase in welfare and environmental quality. The experimentation will focus on evaluation of project bioclimatic aspects (control of sunshine and natural lighting; passive cooling; passive heating; hygrometric and bioclimatic comfort); project bioecological aspects (soil control, ecological management of water, eco-compatibility of materials, reusability of components, recyclability of waste); project energy aspects (increase in energy efficiency, reduction in energy consumption, use of renewable energy, reduction in active systems); project environmental sustainability aspects (impact assessment of intervention, pre-feasibility and environmental feasibility, environmental certification).
Knowledge and understanding
At the end of course, student has learned knowledge and understanding, as well as skills that allow supporting, from a theoretical-methodological point of view, implementation of objectives for ecological efficiency into intervention. Students have to acquire an adequate and specific knowledge of tools, systems and techniques used to work on built and natural environment, also through methods to verify technological-environmental, morpho-typological and functional efficiency of ecodesign. Assessment of knowledge will be carried out through in progress design experimentation and examination test.
Applying knowledge and understanding
Student has to demonstrate mastery of an integrated experimental and analytical-design approach to finalise knowledge learned, to solve complex problems related to conservation process for natural and anthropic assets, environmental restoration and improvement of environmental qualities resulting from various compatible actions within intervention strategies.
In particular, student is able to experiment and assess integrated and multi-scale interventions, using methods, techniques and tools learned.
These skills will be verified through design experimentation activities, in the context of ongoing processes, aimed at developing capacity for individual and group approach to application and professional problems.
Making judgements
Student has to demonstrate ability to learn, evaluate and revise knowledge and experiences in order to form an independent and original judgment.
In particular, student should be adopting skills in autonomous project management of conscious and compatible intervention, with the aim of detailing innovative and sustainable solutions.
The achievement of these critical and autonomous judgement skills will be learned during experimental and design activities, through simulations of eco-efficient technological interventions.
Communication skills
Students will have to demonstrate the ability in technical communication of theoretical, methodological and design competence, using advanced and multimedia representation tools and verbal and written infographic language, through innovative ecodesign proposals.
The achievement of these skills will be learned during experimental activities, which ensure full control of specific expressive and illustrative skills.
Learning skills
Students have to demonstrate a full capacity for autonomous knowledge process, which will allow them to update and increase skills in the field of environmental design and, more generally, in peculiar strategies for eco-efficient technological intervention.
Acquisition of these skills will take place through specific theoretical contributions given during the course, aimed at broadening framework of skills to access innovative methodologies, tools and applications and through constant participation in experimental activities, dialectical field of knowledge learned assessment, within concrete experiences of design. Assessment of learning skills will take place, above all, in exam test finalised to highlight autonomy in knowledge-learned management.
