About Landscape Of[f] Limits

The Landscape Of[f] Limits International Workshop was inaugurated in 2020 at the Piacenza Campus of the Politecnico di Milano, with the support and collaboration of the Master in Sustainable Architecture and Landscape Design and the Polipiacenza Association. During these years an intense and experimental teaching and research experience was developed, aimed at:

· developing the School’s international identity, both in the involvement of students and lecturers from other universities and in thematic approaches;

· discussing the prospects for the transformation and development of contemporary cities and territories at a time of severe crisis, taking the reality of Piacenza as an exemplary case study;

· innovating the discipline’s teaching methods, toward the application of forms of interaction and confrontation in architectural and landscape design with a diverse panel of lecturers and Team Leaders.

“Is not air the whole of our habitation as mortals? Is there a dwelling more vast, more spacious, or even more generally peaceful than that of air? Can man live elsewhere than in air?”
