Abstract

After the uncontrolled growth of cities during the last thirty years, today we can observe several buildings and places abandoned and disused. Within this scenario of neglect there are different buildings (both public and private): historical or single buildings (palaces; castles; old factories; cinemas and theatres; etc); industrial real estate; former military buildings; buildings uncompleted or if completed, unused. This involved a gradual change of the point of view of administrators, designers and experts, calling into question disciplines until then unconsidered (as environmental psychology, urban sociology or environmental design). Today, based on the carried out experiences of re- appropriation of places, widespread in the world (we also remember important interventions like tactical urbanism), to reverse the trend, we should develop a new methodology starting to the social needs to translate them into reuse building process. In this way, urban regeneration should take on a social programming character to be sustainable at different scales intervention process. Doing this, we must enable a new relationship between designers and community to express their own habitat (Paolella 2014, 260) imaging new ways to transfer these visions into the project.
