L’uso degli edifici esistenti rappresenta una sfida consolidata e di estrema attualità. Cercare di migliorare, rinnovare o salvaguardare il costruito considerando le nuove destinazioni d’uso e il rapporto uomo-edificio da un punto di vista olistico, risultano obiettivi primari quando, anche in presenza di sfide sempre più complesse, la progettazione, spesso, si limita a una mera riparazione. La riqualificazione e manutenzione di un oggetto edilizio dovrebbe essere intesa anche come rivitalizzazione di un edificio che, per quanto efficiente da un punto di vista costruttivo e delle scienze dell’architettura, risulta inadeguato per la società attuale e per i sempre più stringenti requisiti normativi. Per affrontare questi problemi, si è deciso di innovare, alla luce delle nuove tecnologie e soprattutto metodologie e visioni, il controllo e la gestione - in automatico - delle comunicazioni e delle adiacenze tra i vari ambienti. La ricerca si focalizza sulle fasi iniziali del processo di progettazione, giungendo ad essere un effettivo supporto ai progettisti.

Abstract
The use of existing buildings represents a consolidated challenge and extremely relevant nowadays. To improve, renovate and safeguard existing buildings while considering the human-building relationship under the light of a global view is a primary objective. In fact, even in the presence of ever-growing challenges, in everyday life design is often used to merely "repair". So, the refurbishment and maintenance of a building should therefore be understood as a revitalization of the building itself that, although "healthy" and efficient from constructive and architectural science viewpoints, could result inadequate for present day society and more and more stringent requirements. To address these problems, it was decided to review, in the light of new technologies, and especially new methodologies and visions, the control and management—autonomously—of communications and adjacencies among various spaces. The research of such an approach focuses on the initial phases of the design process and can be an effective support for designers in managing the various problems that occur in this process.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
