Redefining city space: the faces of attraction
The lecture discusses the features of public spaces that make them seen as attractive – presented as a set of spatial values. These values can be used to create a public space as a place – in placemaking. The attributes of a good place – a public space – as defined by the Project for Public Spaces, are presented, and the features of space and the spatial and social phenomena that affect them are illustrated.
About Milan and its history land and water
The lecture introduces the city of Milan from a historical perspective giving a basic account of its urban evolution. Slow processes, unexpected phenomena, and dramatic episodes equally contributed to the consolidation of a distinctive urban identity, clearly traceable in the main parts of the city, such as monuments, gardens, religious and civil buildings, and, foremost, public spaces.
The lecture proposes an analysis of the urban evolution of Milan from the early 19th century up to date on the basis of spatial planning tools and urban development patterns.
In the recent years, policy encouraged the abandoned areas requalification asking more and more green spaces and slow mobility in the town, this strategy designed a net of inner green corridors able to increase deeply the city green surface.
The lecture deals with Milan’s architectural evolution adopting the prism of public space. Firstly it questions the characteristics of Milanese public space, identifying basic categories and architectural features. Secondly, it introduces the lesson by Francoise Chaoy on the evolution of public space in French historical towns as an interpretative tool for decoding the spatial connotates of publicness across its evolutionary path.

Reading the cityscape by filming
The lectures show some case-studies and examples of classes based on this method, providing as a result a various and high-quality ‘collection’ of short movies –less than three minutes- showing different landscapes and of course their personal interpretation of beauty, issues and potentials.

Citizen appropriation as a placemaking tool in La Marina de Valencia
The presentation discusses citizen appropriation in participatory placemaking actions aimed at improving public spaces, using La Marina de Valencia as an example. The studio’s approach to the project is outlined, presenting a juxtaposition of design elements with narrative and organisational elements.
The lecture focuses on ongoing transformations taking place in the city of Milan, posing particular attention to specific case studies, such as Garibaldi and City Life’s new districts.
The design of the square resolves a complex urban situation, organizing fluxes of people, vehicles, and goods, and giving a new civic sense to the site. The relationships between buildings and roads assume particular importance in this project and redefine private-public transitions.
The urban and architectural setting of the square and its role in the city’s structure are shown. The remainder of the lecture is a presentation of the student projects prepared during the Milan phase of the workshop, covering both the space of the square and some of the surrounding buildings.
The lecture is a presentation of public spaces designed by the eM4 studio, including through competitions. Projects for markets, market squares and public spaces are presented, located in: Wieliczka, Gorlice, Mszana Dolna, Podzamcze Chęcińskie, Wierzbnik in Starachowice, Kielce, Warsaw and Ruda Śląska.

Also featured is Książąt Czartoryskich Square, where the local stone used for street paving served as an inspiration.
Interventions and references – Valencia
The lecture is a presentation of Grupo Aranea’s work on projects for Valencia, including a plan to biodiversify the city’s green spaces. Designs for public spaces for the Marina were also presented, including those designed to provide green links between the urban green space system and the wider natural environment of the Valencia region.
The lecture illustrates a one-year long research about Milanese public space published in the book ‘Milan Public Space’ edited by the Quinzii Terna Architecture Office (Lettera 22, 2021) as a part of public program promoted by the Triennale di Milano and Urban Center.
