In his invited contribution, Dr. Montalto talked about multifunctional parks and other urban landscapes. He also showcased projects designed by EDD, and monitored by his research group at Drexel.
URBAN PARKS was the theme of the Biennale Create Landscapes 2016The urban park project is a key environmental renewal, urban and social tool through which you can rehabilitate degraded areas of the city and take action with respect to environmental hazards.It also has the ability to affect the quality of life of citizens, providing them with open spaces in response to social and cultural questions.Within metropolitan cities it is vital to ensure the environmental and recreational functions of the green, in the form of parks, it plays a very important role in spatial planning.In light of these considerations, one wonders, during the Biennale, how to implement and manage systems supra green spaces, with what new features you have to equip them and what new parameters should be developed to insert the green between services for the metropolitan population.
