Ripensare l’abitare: design, spazi pubblici, sostenibilità. Una conversazione con Francesca La Rocca

The interview with Francesca La Rocca is aimed at exploring the relationship between the public and private spheres with reference to dwelling. La Rocca examines these issues through the lenses of architecture and design, starting from the legacy of the radical avant-garde movements of the 1970s, with a particular focus on figures such as Andrea Branzi and Ugo La Pietra. She reflects on the role of design in harmonizing the relationship between nature, technology, and everyday life by delving into key themes such as cosmic hospitality, environmental sustainability, the necessity of dynamic public spaces, and the significance of the body and sensory experience in design processes. Through a complex and interdisciplinary perspective, the experience of inhabiting a place emerges as an act of negotiation between human, social, and environmental needs, oriented towards an inclusive and sustainable future.
