Bioclimatic Architecture and Urban Morphology. Studies on Intermediate Urban Open Spaces
The contribution follows the European guidelines for the adaptation of the built environment to climate change, illustrated at the COP21 (2015) and collected in the European Climate Adaptation Platform. The text concerns requalification process of the urban open spaces by connecting social and technological features characterizing the urban realm and the related environmental-climatic performance. Through an in-depth study of materials and possible combinations of innovative materials, urban vegetation, water elements and urban shades, the current knowledge of the complex issue of outdoor comfort and urban microclimate is being extended to provide innovative social and functional solutions. The paper comprises the relationship between energy use and urban morphology, studies on intermediate urban open spaces, on environmental and bioclimatic comfort, the interactions between biophysical and microclimatic factors, ultimately the tests of innovative technologies.
