The Carolingian itinerary enanche by : among crops and industries

Planning in historical context studio

Politecnico di Milano, Polo territoriale di Mantova, Master of Science in Architectural design and history

The project starts with the enhancement of the Carolingia's way an historical road that crosses the Pianura Padana's landscape. After the urban analysis, it was highlighted the lack of environmental and sustainable strategies from the main industries and of green connections and spaces. This situation was directly affecting the rural landscape, that is considered an important heritage for the territory. The idea of agopuntura urbana was proposed to add value to this segment of the Carolingia's itinerary whit small and punctual interventions that will have a reflection also on a big scale. Analysing the activities, green roofs, solar panels and recycle techniques are introduced to improve the area. Another important aspect, it's the meeting between the industrial world with the countryside landscape and the containment of the first one, avoiding its expansion. To control these problems, some buffer zones are projected on the margins of the industrial area, that end with the addition of new rows of trees to complete the existing ones. Green areas for the resting area and open air activities, are also projected where abandoned industries are dismissed.Another point of the project, it's the highlighting of the entrances in the area where a dismissed industry is rebuilt in a more ecological way. Its activity will be linked to the rural landscape and the local traditions. The update and the integration of the historical roads to the nowadays planning of the cities, it's an important process. It’s necessary to manage the heritage and to safeguard history in balance with innovation.
