TEMPO E MATERIA. PER UN'ETICA DEL COSTRUIRE

The critical reflection developed in the book focuses on questioning certain theoretical axioms related to the theme of residential heritage redevelopment, particularly those founded on the principle of “energy first.” The primary shortcoming of this approach is its tendency to base cost-benefit evaluations of interventions solely on energy performance indicators, regardless of an assessment of the service life of buildings, which is in fact the key factor in determining the real effectiveness of such measures. Within this framework, significant importance is given to the new epistemological dimension generated using digital technologies, especially Artificial Intelligence, as a support tool for investigative research on the built environment.
