Abstract

The paper aims to investigate the particular morphology along a ridge of Frigento’s historical centre related to an hypothesis of intervention in the context of an industrial research and of experimental development within the Project “Metrics_Metodologie e Tecnologie per la gestione e Riqualificazione dei Centri Storici e degli edifici di pregio” (Methodologies and Technologies for the management and requalification of historical centres and valuable buildings): a project of the High Technology District for the Sustainable Building of Campania Region, STRESS S.c.a.r.l., funded by Programma Operativo Nazionale Ricerca e Competitività 2007-2013 (National Operative Program Research and Competitiveness 2007-2013). The preliminary analysis activities underlined the permanence of a foundation urban fabric (settlement aggregate) of Samnitic and Roman origin (Aeculanum) that during the time was the support for a ducal re-formulation through two prevailing typologies: the courtyard house and the terrace house. The ordered urban fabric, caused by the ridge road and determined, in its deformations, by the acclivity of the earth form, had its counterpoint in some primary elements: the cathedral, the town-hall, the market. This urban congeries dominated the valley below, anticipated by the naturalistic system of the “edges”. The research activity is now in its final phase and, after investigated the centre through the typo morphological analyses, implemented them with a spatial reading following the methodology proposed by Uwe Schröder, aiming to underline the relationship between interiority and exteriority of urban spaces. Finally the research activity proposed projects as possibility of check of the proposed methodology. The projects were hypothesis on urban fabric, reconfiguration of mixtilinear courtyard blocks with garden, reconstruction/revamping of valuable buildings (Palazzo Testa-Pelosi) and on new buildings: in order to complete the head of the block, to measure the promontory towards the “edges”, to re-polarize and re-triangulate, to the west and to the south, the historical centre starting form the cathedral, through a new town-hall and a new market.
