Lione: la progettazione integrale dello spazio pubblico

Some major European cities since the 1980s have entrusted an important part of their resurgence to a public space intervention structure. Not only rediscovering the value of collective places in social and public life but also discovering the need to rethink public space as a place for civil life and the need to focus the project, to bring together previously separate competences: network engineers, traffic engineers, architects and landscapers. The first to choose this road was Barcelona, which created and transformed its image of a sleepy city of the Franco era into the current city of the “movida”. The most recent in order of time was Lisbon, which saw a profound renewal and change in the quality of life thanks to the coherence of the innumerable interventions along the Tagus, both in the center and in the periphery. Lyon is an emblematic case among these cities.
