Experimental processes for the governance of the public space. Guidelines for the sustainable project of dehor in the historic center of Naples

The definition of the principles regulating the use of public spaces with outdoor catering activities is part of the ongoing process of governance and enhancement of cultural tourism and urban quality in the main Italian “art cities”. The urgent need to reconcile local economic development with the need of inhabitants, visitors and stakeholders must provide for appropriate methods of accessibility, perception, safety and use of public spaces. The research that focused in a few sample areas of the Historic Center of Naples UNESCO site, has defined metadesign guidelines to facilitate works, governance and procedures based on the principle of shared choices between the bodies appointed to control the permits to occupy public spaces, thus setting an experimental regulatory process.
