• ARGOMENTO La città di Rotterdam ha subito una serie di cambiamenti nel corso degli anni, lasciando dietro il suo contesto storico e parte della sua identità, è ben noto che la città fu quasi completamente ricostruita in epoca modernista, lasciando la misura umana fuori dal contesto, e si ha nascosto qualsiasi indizio della città vecchia. La ricerca vuole concentrarsi sul rapporto che si sviluppa tra spazio pubblico urbano e persone, anche introdurre l'acqua come elemento di particolare importanza nella città, prendendo particolare importanza nel sito in cui questo elemento ha partecipato in passato, e nella città solo fatto di essere una città portuale molto importante, circondato da questo elemento, e collegarlo al sito con il mercato coperto e la vita che circonda la zona, indagando come i processi di trasformazione contemporanee danno nuova vita al l'elemento acqua, la progettazione di una nuova area per il sito dimenticato vicino al famoso Markthal da un sistema che combina spazio urbano sia fisico che sociale. • META La ricerca si propone di mostrare quanto è importante per la città di Rotterdam al giorno d'oggi avere un progetto con le caratteristiche necessarie per migliorare la vita sociale, per tornare la città e stata una volta, e al tempo stesso di avere un progetto sostenibile in questo posto che può completare lo spazio del Markthal e dintorni, per ricordare l'importanza dell'acqua come risorsa strutturazione dei nuovi spazi pubblici, in entrambi i sensi estetici e sostenibili, grazie a una nuova consapevolezza ecologica in città, e rileggere la forma e l’importante ruolo che svolge in modo da adattarsi ai cambiamenti che la città ha guadagnato può essere progettato un nuovo modo di vivere e l'utilizzo di spazi pubblici. • METODO/STRATEGIA La ricerca, attingendo alla analisi di casi, cerca di identificare modi in cui, nel progetto contemporaneo, può essere definita l'identità dello spazio pubblico per proiettare un nuovo spazio urbano che possa soddisfare e completare le esigenze delle persone e allo stesso tempo uno spazio in relazione con l'acqua e le frazioni esistenti del mercato aperto e la sala mercato. Studiando questi esempi, che sono anche alla ricerca nel passato di casi storici in grado di illustrare le tendenze, la ricerca vuole definire il carattere della gestione pubblica e cercare di adattare una relazione con l'acqua.
