Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The book collects the outcomes of the teaching experience carried out during the first semester of the 2021/22 academic year within the four Architectural and Urban Design and Interior Architecture Studio of the second year of Master’s Degree in Architecture 5UE at the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples “Federico II”. The theoretical and applied experience focused on the design of a new kindergarten in Via Manzoni, in the Posillipo district of Naples. The proposals developed by the students aimed to renew the idea of school: a school-city that becomes a reference point not only for those who experience it daily, but for the entire community and the neighbourhood in which it is located. The school is understood as a complex architecture, whose organizational structure engages with the features of the urban and landscape morphology, incorporating, replicating, and renewing principles and settlement features. The design experiments thus integrate the three scales of the project: the scale of interior spaces’ design, relating to formal and informal education, also taking into account pedagogical aspects; the scale of the architectural building, also in relation to dimensional and spatial relationships with the Fatebenefratelli Hospital and the former Swiss School, designed by Dolf Schnebli; the urban and landscape scale, relating to the integration into the Posillipo neighbourhood, between the urban axis of Via Manzoni and the rural road of Via del Marzano. The book also includes texts from teachers, designers, and scholars who were invited to provide theoretical-methodological contributions and participate in collective reviews within the Design Studios.
