This thesis explores the theme of sustainability in the construction sector, providing an in-depth analysis of regulatory frameworks, certification protocols, and the practical application of theoretical concepts through a case study. Starting with the evolution of the concept of sustainability from the 1970s to the present, the research highlights the importance of the three fundamental pillars—environmental, economic, and social—and their role in guiding current and future construction practices. A detailed examination of international, European, and Italian regulations demonstrates how these rules promote the development of sustainable and resilient buildings, aligned with global goals such as the 2030 Agenda and the European Green Deal. Special attention is given to the major sustainability certification protocols, including BREEAM, LEED, WELL Building Standard, CASBEE, SBTool, and Level(s), with a specific focus on the ITACA Protocol, one of the most relevant tools in the Italian context. The thesis also examines the crucial role of economic incentives, such as the Superbonus 110%, Ecobonus, Sismabonus, and Conto Termico, analyzing their impact on both energy efficiency and property value enhancement. The case study of Villa Ginevra represents a practical application of sustainability principles. The analysis focuses on the design solutions adopted in terms of innovative materials, cutting-edge technologies, and sustainable design strategies, evaluating the building’s performance through the application of the ITACA Protocol. The evaluation process identifies the project’s strengths and areas for improvement, offering a comprehensive overview of the building’s environmental, energy, and social performance. The results emphasize the importance of an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to building design, demonstrating how adopting sustainable practices not only reduces environmental impacts but also provides long-term economic benefits and improves social well-being. The final recommendations focus on the need to promote greater adoption of certifications such as the ITACA Protocol and to further incentivize the use of eco-friendly materials and low-impact technologies to ensure the construction of increasingly sustainable and high-performing buildings.
Questa tesi esplora il tema della sostenibilità nell’ambito dell’edilizia, analizzando in modo approfondito le normative di riferimento, i protocolli di certificazione e applicando i concetti teorici a un caso di studio concreto. Partendo dall’evoluzione del concetto di sostenibilità, dagli anni '70 fino a oggi, la ricerca evidenzia l’importanza dei tre pilastri fondamentali: ambientale, economico e sociale, e il loro ruolo nel guidare le pratiche edilizie attuali e future. Un esame dettagliato delle normative internazionali, europee e italiane permette di comprendere l’impatto delle regolamentazioni nel favorire lo sviluppo di edifici sostenibili e resilienti, in linea con gli obiettivi globali, come l’Agenda 2030 e il Green Deal Europeo. Particolare attenzione è dedicata ai principali protocolli di certificazione della sostenibilità edilizia, tra cui BREEAM, LEED, WELL Building Standard, CASBEE, SBTool e Level(s), con un focus specifico sul Protocollo ITACA, considerato uno degli strumenti più rilevanti nel contesto italiano. La tesi esamina anche il ruolo cruciale degli incentivi economici, come il Superbonus 110%, l’Ecobonus, il Sismabonus e il Conto Termico, analizzandone l’impatto sia dal punto di vista dell’efficienza energetica che dell’aumento del valore immobiliare. Il caso di studio su Villa Ginevra rappresenta un’applicazione pratica dei principi di sostenibilità. L'analisi si concentra sulle soluzioni progettuali adottate in termini di materiali innovativi, tecnologie all’avanguardia e strategie di design sostenibile, valutandone le prestazioni attraverso l’applicazione del Protocollo ITACA. Il processo di valutazione consente di individuare i punti di forza del progetto e le aree in cui si potrebbero ottenere miglioramenti, offrendo una panoramica completa delle prestazioni ambientali, energetiche e sociali dell’edificio. I risultati dell'analisi evidenziano l’importanza di un approccio integrato e multidisciplinare alla progettazione edilizia, mostrando come l'adozione di pratiche sostenibili non solo contribuisca alla riduzione degli impatti ambientali, ma comporti anche benefici economici a lungo termine e un miglioramento del benessere sociale. Le raccomandazioni finali si concentrano sulla necessità di promuovere una maggiore diffusione di certificazioni come il Protocollo ITACA e di incentivare ulteriormente l'uso di materiali eco-compatibili e tecnologie a basso impatto ambientale, al fine di garantire la costruzione di edifici sempre più sostenibili e performanti.

Abstract
This thesis explores the theme of sustainability in the construction sector, providing an in-depth analysis of regulatory frameworks, certification protocols, and the practical application of theoretical concepts through a case study.

A detailed examination of international, European, and Italian regulations demonstrates how these rules promote the development of sustainable and resilient buildings, aligned with global goals such as the 2030 Agenda and the European Green Deal. Special attention is given to the major sustainability certification protocols, including BREEAM, LEED, WELL Building Standard, CASBEE, SBTool, and Level(s), with a specific focus on the ITACA Protocol, one of the most relevant tools in the Italian context.
