Regeneration and community in socio-cultural spaces
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This collection of projects highlights experiences that, through spaces dedicated to culture and community, create a physical infrastructure for local regeneration. The proposed architectural works include spaces for museums, parks, and cultural centres, as well as venues for local and municipal associations hosting informal cultural activities. Despite being located in various regions of the Alps, these projects share common characteristics, such as hosting adaptable and open spaces that can accommodate different functions. Their strength lies in their indeterminacy, being Lefebvrianly “produced” by the communities that inhabit them. Moreover, these buildings are thoughtfully integrated into their surrounding context, with the functional plans and internal relationships between spaces closely connected to the surrounding outdoor areas and nearby built structures.
