Educational objectives The course aims to provide students with the tools to analyse and manage the design of interior spaces through the application of design criteria guided by the principles of environmental sustainability, transversal to all human activity and specifically aimed at the wellbeing of the individual. In this sense, the course aims to provide students with knowledge of both a theoretical-analytical and technical-designing nature, in order to prefigure innovative scenarios. In particular, the course intends to investigate the use of natural elements (or in any case inspired by nature) as a design strategy to increase the conditions of human well-being and health in interior spaces, with reference to both the private and collective spheres.
Prerequisites No
Teaching methods The course is divided into theoretical lectures and design activities.
Other information The professor will communicate with students for exam results and/or course materials via www.unistudium.unipg.it
Learning verification modality The examination includes an individual oral test focusing on the discussion of theoretical content and the presentation of design activities. These tests are aimed at ascertaining the level of cognitive, critical and relational skills, as well as the ability to use the technical disciplinary language. The colloquium will take place at one of the scheduled exam sessions on the dates previously published on the Department's website (https://ing1.unipg.it/).
Extended program Acquire knowledge of the main methods and strategies for the development of low environmental impact project actions;
