Abstract
The paper suggests a scientific reading of a semantic experimentation in Venice. The method is proposed as a process capable not only of defining the quantitative aspects that characterize its physicality and morphometric qualities, but also capable of intercepting the elusive and invisible qualities that cities produce. The method is held together with the aim that drawing is a multidisciplinary tool that has been carried out starting from the urban experimentation through different workscales. The first reflection is conducted at the city scale: the focus is on public space with some consideration on its urban form and its historical urban process. Venice shows us clearly the role of geography as well as history, its transformation process and the relevance of its urban structures. This preliminary consideration helps us to find out the most consolidate urban fabric of Venice and the most important urban structure in the venetian reality. These reflections are transposed to a neighbourhood scale, Fondamenta dei Ormesini. The experimentation of the case study is based on thematic reading via urban survey and urban morphology. The methodological approach involves a lot of data and information that must necessarily be compared in order to reach useful results, through different level. The synergetic union of these information and the development of a dynamic, multilayer and transdisciplinary methodology allows to carry out a flexible system to reading this part of Venice. In the same way, the proposed process can be transposed to other parts of the city, or even to other urban realities.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
