Sustainable land reading

Talking about the shape of the contemporary city compared to the concept of the rapid and constant changes that delineate the historical period is increasingly complex. It is difficult to define which of these parts of the city are part of the urban landscape and which of the natural landscape. Certainly, planning defines the urban landscape as the set of voids and full, projects and not, with more or less natural elements. More obvious is the definition of the natural landscape, which in the same Italian landscape plans is outlined through the analysis and the physical-environmental and historical-cultural reading of the territory. The history of Italian planning with respect to the concept of landscape and protection of the same has followed progressive but late stages starting from a purely aesthetic concept of the same until arriving at a concept of sustainability. Recently, articles 9 and 41 have been amended to introduce protection for the environment, biodiversity and ecosystems into the Italian Constitution, also in the interests of future generations. There are many sustainability policies implemented to safeguard the environment and resources just think of the ONU action plan with the 2030 Agenda. The question of defining a boundary that outlines the interaction and/or exchange between the urban landscape and the natural landscape therefore remains the key to reading the change of the urban form in the vision of sustainable development.
