Environmental networks in the territory

Abstract

In the diffuse Adriatic city, care for territorial bio-permeability conditions needs to be rediscovered by looking for planning instruments suitable for reading the evolutionary dynamics of open spaces, and interpreting the urban and territorial transformations that currently seem to occur in random and unpredictable ways. The contemporary city pushes away new localizations, and agricultural/natural areas often become the preferred place not only for production and commerce, but also for new housing and public works. In the chipping away of responsibility, interests, and controls, a similarly fractured landscape is established, in which full and empty, finished and incomplete, used and decommissioned coexist chaotically. Contemporary research asks us to manage the integral complexity of the territory starting from the structure of the landscape and environmental continuity, without arbitrarily separating things from their growth. In the conclusions of the research, PRIN 2006-2008 "Opere pubbliche e città adriatica. Indirizzi per la qualificazione dei progetti urbani e territoriali" (coordinated by Barbieri at the University of Chieti-Pescara), new horizons of sense for environmental networks can be seen, along with ever more directing/ordering axes in the continuous Adriatic city, connective bridges within the system of urban voids that the world of decommissioned industrial areas belongs to, and the grand ecological continuity of the inland areas. Old farms, ex-industrial areas, abandoned agricultural areas, green spaces and paths cut from the urban debris are inserted into a wider "renaturalization" project for the city, outlining new human ecological tracks between territory and society and presenting a new, original proposal for sustainability and new forms of spatiality.
