Abstract

The research falls within the context of the refurbishment and regeneration of the predominantly residential building tissue in consolidated urban contexts which, subject to a continuous process of modification, are characterized in terms of a palimpsest. The goal is to reread this transformative process and identify the codes that have regulated it in order to ensure its continuity through active conservation interventions on the building tissue that ensure its protection on the one hand and regenerative recovery on the other. The relationship between type, technique and project is assumed as the operational key of a methodology that seeks the definition not only of the qualitative parameters attributable to the recognition of the peculiarities and the complex of values of the historical building heritage and to their translation in a critical–interpretative key in the levels of transformability, but also of those of a quantitative type, referable to the performance levels connected to a necessary adaptation to new needs. The paper intends to report the results of the experimentation of the research work, conducted in the framework of collaborative relationships between the University of L’Aquila and the University of Seville, on an old traditional Andalusian patio house located in the historic center of Seville. The building is the subject of various interventions up to that of 1952 by the Regionalist architect Antonio Delgado y Roig. The project experimentation seeks a model of use compatible with the characteristics of the type, investigated in the complex of its functional, formal and constructive aspects and defines congruent intervention strategies. The design intentions are finally translated into technical–construction choices that find precise and punctual detailed solutions within the building schedule according to technical codes referable to a form of advanced craftsmanship, both in the use of traditional and innovative materials.
