Bertesina treasure hunting is the result of a process of codesign aiming at finding solutions to enhance Villa Gazzotti Grimani Curti, a Palladian villa located in Vicenza and part of the Unesco heritage site called “City of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto”. The process started with a broad research on the role of design in the enhancement of cultural heritage and how it can impact the territories and local community. This review was followed by a field research, investigating the current state of the Palladian villas and how the system is currently being promoted and experienced by visitors. The field research included interviews with relevant stakeholders, observation and a survey. The final project was then designed after two workshops, and a user test ( intended as confrontational as well as design occasions), involving the owners of the villa and the local community. The first workshop aimed at finding possible opportunities, while the second was focused on the definition of a project brief. The user test focused on the quality of the experience of visit, which is the final result and the main outcome of this process. Bertesina treasure hunting is an experience of visit combining physical and digital elements. It aims at reconnecting the heritage to the territory and the local community, by allowing people to access the site and learn about it. It allows visitors to have an experience of visit combining education and entertainment, while letting them get in touch with the heritage of their territory. At the same it is intended as a promotional mean, attracting tourists to the Palladian villas.
Bertesina treasure hunting è il risultato di un processo di co-design con l’obiettivo di trovare idee e soluzioni per valorizzare villa Gazzotti Grimani Curti, una villa palladiana situata a Vicenza e parte del sito Unesco “città di Vicenza e ville palladiane del Veneto”. Il progetto è iniziato con un’approfondita ricerca sul ruolo del design nella valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale e come questi interventi possano impattare sul territorio e la comunità locale. Successivamente, è stata svolta una field research con l’obiettivo di analizzare l’attuale stato delle ville e come il sistema viene promosso e fruito da parte dei visitatori. Questa ricerca ha incluso: interviste con i principali attori del territorio, observation e un sondaggio. Il progetto finale è il risultato di due workshops e uno user test, intesi come occasioni di confronto e di co-progettazione, che hanno coinvolto i proprietari della villa e la comunità locale. Il primo workshop si è focalizzato sulla definizione di possibili opportunità di progetto, mentre il secondo ha portato alla definizione del brief. Lo user test si è focalizzato sulla qualità dell’esperienza di visita, che è il principale risultato di questo processo. Bertesina treasure hunting è un’esperienza di visita che combina elementi fisici e virtuali. L’obiettivo è connettere il patrimonio culturale al territorio e alla comunità, permettendo ai cittadini di fruire, quindi conoscere, il bene. Grazie a questo progetto, i visitatori possono fruire di un’esperienza che combina educazione ed intrattenimento, permettendogli di entrare in contatto con il patrimonio culturale. Inoltre il progetto ha anche un carattere di tipo promozionale, con l’obiettivo di attrarre nuovi visitatori.

Abstract
Bertesina treasure hunting is the result of a process of codesign aiming at finding solutions to enhance Villa Gazzotti Grimani Curti, a Palladian villa located in Vicenza and part of the Unesco heritage site called “City of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto”. The process started with a broad research on the role of design in the enhancement of cultural heritage and how it can impact the territories and local community. This review was followed by a field research, investigating the current state of the Palladian villas and how the system is currently being promoted and experienced by visitors. The field research included interviews with relevant stakeholders, observation and a survey. The final project was then designed after two workshops, and a user test ( intended as confrontational as well as design occasions), involving the owners of the villa and the local community. The first workshop aimed at finding possible opportunities, while the second was focused on the definition of a project brief. The user test focused on the quality of the experience of visit, which is the final result and the main outcome of this process. Bertesina treasure hunting is an experience of visit combining physical and digital elements. It aims at reconnecting the heritage to the territory and the local community, by allowing people to access the site and learn about it. It allows visitors to have an experience of visit combining education and entertainment, while letting them get in touch with the heritage of their territory. At the same it is intended as a promotional mean, attracting tourists to the Palladian villas.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
