La ruggente crescita e l’espansione incontrollata delle megalopoli asiatiche hanno quasi del tutto distrutto il paesaggio urbano. L’urgenza di realizzare infrastrutture che consentissero di collegare agglomerati urbani sempre più estesi ha permesso di adottare disinvolte strategie progettuali che hanno fatto perdere il carattere originario di questi centri. In Giappone (nella città di Tokyo), così come nella Corea del Sud (nella città di Seul) per ovviare alla indisponibilità di terreno nelle zone centrali vennero interrati molti canali sui quali furono costruite strade a scorrimento veloce. Il paesaggio urbano, prima caratterizzato da un’estesa rete di canali e di fiumi, cominciava così gradualmente a scomparire. Durante quel selvaggio processo di cementificazione non venne ritenuto necessario riferirsi alle antiche mappe per capire lo spazio urbano. Negli ultimi anni la riconquista degli spazi d’acqua all’interno della città diventa un’occasione di rinascita del paesaggio urbano.

Abstract
The roaring growth and uncontrolled expansion of the Asian megacities have almost completely destroyed the landscape urban environments' urgency to build infrastructure that would allow you to connect more and more extensive urban allowed to adopt casual design strategies that have lost their original character these centers. In Japan (in Tokyo), as well as in South Korea (in the city of Seoul) to remedy the lack of available land in the central areas were buried many channels on which they were built fast roads. The urban landscape, the first characterized by an extensive network of canals and rivers, so gradually began to disappear. During that process wild overbuilding was not considered necessary to refer to the old maps to understand the space urbano.Negli recent years the reconquest of the water spaces within the city becomes an opportunity for the rebirth of the urban landscape.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
