This lecture discusses the importance of intervening in iconic park facilities, rethinking their integration into the urban context, and enhancing the presence of vegetation in the city. It covers the objectives pursued in rehabilitating emblematic parks, addressing issues like neglected vegetation, closed accesses, and lack of permeability. The lecture also explores the concept of urban planning, focusing on reconnecting the park to its urban context and enhancing its green character. It delves into the design of comprehensive long-term plans and short-term interventions within budget constraints. Additionally, it details the planning of plantations, selection of tree species, and the choice of materials for pathways and implementation of park furniture and lighting.
