Contemporary Caravanserais (English, Italian, Paperback)

The volume is a collection of thoughts, passages, research and projects that regard the emerging question of public space. The square and its evolution takes us, from a place of urban and human relationships to a place of different collective activities in the contemporary city. This analysis can teach one to read not only the design experience and the diffusion of new models, but also the changes in the aesthetic experience of public space, in its socio-urban and architectural implications, and in its relationships between horizontal space (i.e. the square) and vertical space (the building).
