Workscapes: towards an interscalar design method. Restrictions and direction of mutations in the case study of Corradini

Starting from the examination of the restriction placed on the Corradini factory with Ministerial Decree 27 February 1990; from the urbanvplanning legislation in force in the eastern area of Naples and from a reading of the “spontaneous” transformations in the former industrial area, the contribution intends to explore the admissible design directions to guarantee the stable balance of the relationship between memory and use of industrial archeology artefacts. Current legislation, spontaneous transformations, sectoral ambitions and design experiments will contribute to outlining a working method, conceived in autonomous but dialoguing steps, capable of detecting and evealing the “city demand” implicit in the historical landscapes of work (here “left-lanscapes”) to prefigure contextual and contemporary scenarios.
