La qualità dello spazio pubblico richiede nuovi paradigmi di studio: tasselli interconnessi di un più ampio sistema di verde urbano possono garantire servizi ecosistemici e vivibilità a spazi densi di significato culturale e attrattiva sociale. In particolare, il verde pensile, garantendo nuove connessioni con il contesto, si dimostra come nuova possibilità strategica per dare valore e spazio di natura, guardando alla città costruita come a un sistema vivente. Elemento sempre più frequente, talora generativo, del linguaggio della ‘terza rivoluzione industriale digitale verde’, il verde pensile ha fornito una risposta in chiave compositiva, formale e ornamentale alle esigenze di risparmio energetico e di minor consumo delle risorse materiali e naturali alla scala della città, come a quella dell’architettura, in contesti climatici e socio-tecnici differenti.

Abstract
The quality of public space requires new study paradigms: interconnected pieces of a broader urban green system can guarantee ecosystem services and liveability to spaces full of cultural meaning and social attraction. In particular, green roof gardens, by guaranteeing new connections with the context, prove to be a new strategic possibility to give value and space to nature, looking at the built city as a living system. An increasingly frequent, sometimes generative element of the language of the ‘third digital green industrial revolution’, green roof gardens have provided a compositional, formal and ornamental response to the need to save energy and reduce the consumption of materials and natural resources on a city-wide scale, as well as that of architecture, in different climatic and socio-technical contexts. This contribution intends to analyse green roof gardens as a strategic element for the overall regeneration of the urban system and as an architectural element identifying the design culture of our time.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
