The volume offers considerable material for reflection on the subject of Mediterranean Architecture between Heritage and Innovation, demonstrating the wide range of aspects linked to architectural technology, highlighting the flexibility of the disciplinary boundaries with regard to the various meanings that can be applied to the concept of resource. To be read as a continuation of previous Osdotta publications, this allows to trace the current developments in third-level education in a particularly critical moment for the university institution, continuing to emphasize the crucial question of the supply/demand in research, in comparison with other institutions and with the world of production in this sector, in the current scenario dominated by increasingly rapid and incisive transformations. The main challenges to be faced are the quality improvement of PhD courses, through reflection on immediate and long-term results, alongside with clarifying the identity contents of the disciplinary sector.

This book presents the results of a study on the fragmentation of the suburban territory in the Florentine plain, developed in the framework of the Florence University PhD course in Landscape Design. Thus the landscape on the western edge of the urban centre becomes a case study for evolving from the applications to the quest for theoretical and methodological elements. What emerges clearly from this is the importance of the design mentality as an essential cultural value for the drafting of policies of active conservation, retrieval and modification of the landscape.

The first volume of a series connected with the Florence University PhD course in Landscape Design – a disciplinary sector that is innovative in terms of its political and social engagement – it illustrates the potential of this field of study through the results of a wide-ranging educational and creative workshop. The various design experiences are grouped into six thematic sections: Parks and landscape; City parks; Urban spaces; Fortified systems; Art sites; Historic landscapes; Concepts and projects (the latter addressing issues that are central to Italian research, such as agricultural and river landscapes).

Over the last few years the landscape debate has taken a new turn, shifting from concerns of conservation and protection towards the search for methods of intervention and regulations that consent a development of the territory compatible with the mutation of collective requirements. This is based on a recognition of the intrinsically dynamic nature of the landscape, conceived both in its matter and in its essence as a social construct. This shift has been sanctioned by the European Landscape Convention, which includes among the objectives of landscape policy the creation of new landscapes "to satisfy the aspirations of the population involved". This book focuses on the investigation of the conditions of the context that make innovation more or less appropriate. This is assessed as a design approach (and hence no distinction will be made between design action and planning action) that addresses the "rules" dictated by what already exists. The social recognition of their value defines the "degree of freedom" of the invention. At times the rule is the very object of the project, that is the intervention is demanded precisely to conserve or valorise a landscape that is considered of exceptional value (as in the case of protected landscapes). In other cases it is a question of implementing projects with different objectives, while respecting the rules of the landscape context. Frequently the landscape does not feature a single, unequivocal and legible system of rules, but a stratification that may be incomplete, fragmentary or conflicting: the project may then attempt to knit these up, and this mechanism may trigger its added value. There are also cases in which the rule is too weak to support a revival, or is "banal", in short can be considered worth "sacrificing" to the introduction of a new system of values. Taken as a whole, the essays explore cases of landscape design, from planning to the art of the garden, identifying the appropriateness of the innovation in terms of an awareness of the rules and the intentional affirmation and expression of self. The articles contained in the book were composed specifically for the International Convention on "Innovation and Rules in Landscape Design" held in Florence on 22 and 23 November 2002, organised by the Research Doctorate in Landscape Design of the University of Florence. Da non molti anni il dibattito sui temi paesistici ha imboccato una svolta, dalle preoccupazioni conservative e vincolistiche alla ricerca di metodologie d'intervento e norme attive, che consentano lo sviluppo del territorio compatibile con il mutare delle esigenze collettive . Ciò è basato sul riconoscimento della natura intrinsecamente dinamica del paesaggio, inteso nella sua materialità ma anche nel suo essere, al tempo stesso, un costrutto sociale. La svolta è sancita dalla Convenzione Europea del Paesaggio, che ammette tra gli obiettivi delle politiche del paesaggio anche la creazione di nuovi paesaggi "per soddisfare le aspirazioni della popolazione interessata". Questo volume si concentra sull'indagine delle condizioni del contesto che rendono più o meno opportuna l'innovazione. Essa è valutata in quanto atteggiamento progettuale (non si farà quindi distinzione tra azione progettuale e azione pianificatoria) nei confronti delle "regole" date dall'esistente: il riconoscimento sociale del loro valore detta il "grado di libertà" dell'invenzione. Talvolta la regola è l'oggetto stesso del progetto, ossia l'intervento è richiesto proprio per conservare/valorizzare un paesaggio considerato di eccezionale valore (è il caso, ad esempio, dei paesaggi protetti). In altri casi, si tratta di realizzare progetti con obiettivi di natura diversa, ma rispettando le regole del contesto paesistico. È frequente che il paesaggio non presenti un solo univoco e leggibile sistema di regole, ma una stratificazione talvolta incompleta, frammentaria o conflittuale: il progetto può allora tentare una ricucitura e da questo meccanismo far scaturire il suo valore aggiunto. Esistono anche casi in cui la regola è troppo debole per sostenere una ripresa, o è "banale", insomma la si giudica "sacrificabile" di fronte all' introduzione di un nuovo sistema di valori. Nel complesso i saggi raccolti esplorano occasioni di progetto di paesaggio, dalla pianificazione all'arte dei giardini, individuando l'opportunità dell'innovazione tra la consapevolezza delle regole e l'intenzionale affermazione ed espressione di sé. Gli scritti contenuti in questo volume sono stati appositamente redatti per il Convegno Internazionale "Innovazione e Regole nella Progettazione del Paesaggio", tenutosi a Firenze nelle giornate 22-23 novembre 2002, dal Dottorato di Ricerca in Progettazione Paesistica dell'Università di Firenze.
