Brownfields rappresentano un fenomeno all’interno del tessuto urbano delle città in Bosnia ed Erzegovina. Oggi sono i testimoni del passato di queste zone. Da abbandonati, testimoniano i cambiamenti all’interno della società, l’invecchiamento, il cambio delle generazioni e la transizione politica e sociale. Per questo motivo, lo scopo di questa tesi è quello di esaminare il ruolo dei siti industriali e la loro relazione con il contesto nel caso di Sana, una ex-fabbrica tessile a Novi Grad in Bosnia ed Erzegovina. Dalla sua istituzione, Sana rappresentava l’identità di Novi Grad e, nonostante la sua chiusura, è rimasta un caposaldo fino ai giorni d’oggi. Era generatrice delle attività industriali ed è ancora, a trent’anni dalla sua chiusura, importante nella memoria dei abitanti. Un altro scopo era quello di capire come Sana potrebbe rigenerarsi, tenendo conto del passato. Di conseguenza, il patrimonio industriale, percipito come parte del patrimonio immateriale è il principale generatore progettuale per la rigenerazione di Sana. Questo è ottenuto tramite la rappresentazione di come sia possibile mantenere la memoria e il patrimonio delle generazioni vecchie tramandandole alle generazioni nuove.. L’idea progettuale è quella di rendere Sana un nuovo distretto urbano mantenedo il suo carattere. Il progetto vuole colmare il divario tra le varie generazioni ed offrigli spazio publico attrezato, nel quale si terebbero varie attività culturali migliorando la vita quotidiana. Sana sarà rigenerata come un capo saldo per le generzioni future mantenendo la memoria delle generazioni passate.

Abstract
Brownfields represent a common phenomenon within the urban tissue of the cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Today, they are just witnesses of good memories about how these areas used to be. At the present, these abandoned and disused sites testify for the changes in the society, aging, the shift of generations and transition into a new political and social system. For that purpose, the aim of this thesis is to examine the role of those industrial sites and their relationship with the surroundings in the specific context, through the Sana case, which is a former giant textile factory in Novi Grad, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since its establishment, Sana was an indispensable part of the Novi Grad's identity, and although it has collapsed, it had remained as a landmark up until the present day. It used to be a generator of industrial and social activities, and its significance even after 30 years of decay, is still engraved in the people's memories. Having that said, another aim has been understanding how Sana could be regenerated so that it can breathe in a new life, taking into account the one it had in the past. Consequently, the industrial memory, perceived as a part of the intangible heritage, is used as the main driver for the Sana regeneration. This is achieved through representing how it is possible to maintain the memory and legacy from the oldest generations through the prism of the future ones. The project was designed as a proposal in which Sana becomes a new urban district, but achieves to obtain the vibrant character from the past. The design goal is to bridge the gap between the different generations (young and old) and offer them good quality public spaces, where mainly cultural activities are taking place, with the aim of improving the quality of everyday life. Sana will be regenerated to stay as a landmark for the future generations, but also a memory for the past ones.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
