Contemporary Landscapes, new design, agriculture and society

On the occasion of the AIAPP Conference “Contemporary Landscapes, new design, agriculture and society”, Maurizio Ori, Landscape Planner and Architect, Vice-President of AIAPP Lombardy, will participate with a speech entitled “Can design quality make a difference?” The aim is to place the soil or agrarian landscape at the centre of the design process as the protagonist of transformations and not as the place of ‘retri’ or city expansions. This new and virtuous territorial process should trigger new methodologies of land planning and study.
The proposed approach, which is scientifically more correct, is that of historical-environmental assessment, in which an attempt is made to grasp the dynamic aspects of the landscape and to insert them with attention to historical-witness values for the definition of new insertions.
