ABSTRACT

Climate change became a fascinating subject to urban environment. Our scope is to develop a research network, associating architecture schools, urban research laboratories, local authorities and NGOs on architectural solutions to deal with consequences of climate change, more focused on cities. Today, many entities are already working on issues related to the effects of extreme swings in climatic conditions. However, in recent years, many projects were interrupted when they faced strong opposition from public opinion, the media or lawsuits. Project proposals seem to address sensitive cultural values and consequently undergo years of discussion, only to be put aside eventually. Data related to historical and geographic records of specific lands are used to construct patterns of development, feed algorithms and integrate the support of artificial intelligence to design possible future scenarios. The final result aims to produce Sustainable Operative Solutions.
