About this book
The international study encounter is meant to promote visions shared by architectural technology and other disciplines, which, though they may appear to differ, are closely interconnected, with the aim of achieving an open, interdisciplinary integration capable of proposing concrete projects regarding topics held to be of strategic importance to the future of the built environment. These are identified to draw up evolving scenarios of architecture and cities suited to reflection, at various levels, on innovative models of process and product.

About the editors
Eugenio Arbizzani, Ph.D. is Full Professor of Architectural Technology, Sapienza University of Rome. In his trentennial professional experience he has developed the integrated design of complex buildings for private and public clients, most of them built, mainly in the sectors of hospital and social health construction, social housing, school construction, and cultural heritage. He carries out research and development with a focus on different scientific fields: integrated design and project and construction management services; tools and methodologies for the management of the building process; building models and innovative technologies for hospital construction and social housing; testing of systems and components for the technological upgrading of buildings; and building envelope and ICT technologies for the AAL project.
Eliana Cangelli, PhD, is Associate Professor of Technological Design, Sapienza University of Rome. She is Vice President of Eurosolar World - European Association for Renewable Energy and member of the Committee for Urban and Building Quality established by the City of Rome. Since 1993 she has been carrying out scientific, didactic, planning and consulting activities in the fields of urban renewal and environmental sustainability, environmental planning, bioclimatic architecture and energy efficiency for public and private institutions. Her scientific commitment is to the tools and methods for verifying the sustainability of architectural projects at different scales, environmental design and control of the architectural, environmental and energy quality of buildings, and innovation and technological experimentation aimed at the technical, economic, environmental and social sustainability of buildings. Her research activity is documented by the publication of research reports, books, articles and essays, as well as scientific publications and participation in national and international conferences as a guest speaker.
Carola Clemente Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Architectural Technology, Sapienza University of Rome. She carries out research and experimentation on the issues of management and control of the feasibility of complex programs, with particular reference to: the design and integrated redevelopment of social housing (housing, construction for training and research, construction for welfare); the technological upgrading and energy retrofit of buildings for training, social housing, and the advanced tertiary sector; Smart Cities and Communities (SCC); and Positive Energy Districts (PED). On these issues, she is engaged in various initiatives to support the public administration in the energy and technological diagnosis of the building heritage for the identification of sustainable intervention strategies and actions in technical, economic, and social terms, with low-cost and low-impact technologies.
Fabrizio Cumo, Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Applied Physic, Sapienza University of Rome. He is nuclear engineer and Ph.D. in energetic science. From 2016 to 2022 he was head of CITERA—Interdepartmental Centre for Territory, Building, Conservation and Environment. Since 2015, President of the degree course in Project Management. Leader of the research group of CITERA for the project of a "contingency plan" against oil spills for the Italian Ministry of Environment. Director of the international Summerschool on Bioarchitecture in protected area. Leader of the research group for the evaluation of safety, security, and environmental comfort for operators and work of art (CNR ICVBC). Member of the Italian Commission for the receiving of EU Directive 2002/91/CE for the Ministry of Environment for responsible use of energy in residential area and use of renewable sources.
Francesca Giofrè, Ph.D. is Associate Professor of Architectural Technology, Sapienza University of Rome.She was Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Architecture at Sapienza University of Rome (2013-2019). Since 1995 she has carried out research and consultancy activities at the University and other institutions at national and international levels. Her main research areas are: Innovation in the planning process, focusing on the research and development of new tools to help those involved in the construction process to make decisions in the pre-project phase; Innovation in the construction process, focusing her research activities on the construction industry and in particular on safety; Design for all, basing her research activities in this area on the analysis of people's needs to find architectural and technological solutions in different contexts that can provide equal opportunities and healthy city for all. She is the coordinator of some EU projects on the healthy city. She has published several papers, articles, and books on these topics and has carried out many feasibility studies in thefield of architecture for health.
Anna Maria Giovenale, Ph.D, is Full Professor of Architectural Technology, Vice-rector to the spaces for university and healthcare buildings in Sapienza, University of Rome, member of the Technical Scientific Committee on Diversity and Inclusion and of the Scientific Council of the Fondazione Roma Sapienza. She was Dean of the Faculty of Architecture at the Sapienza, University of Rome from 2014 to 2020. She carries out research and development activities mainly on the following thematic areas: innovation in the methods and tools for the management and for the quality control of building processes and of design at the different scales of intervention; with particular attention to complex public buildings. On these issues, she carried out an intense research and third Mission activity and design experimentation, in particular with application to the healthcare buildings and contributed to the development of technical standards and guidelines for public institutions.
