To Re-Create Life in the Cities : The LICI Project

摘要

Actions of urban renewal represent important investments in our cities. They often generate empty spaces that are underused, misused or simply not used at all. When looking for an architectural gesture, the concern of many projects focuses on aesthetics rather than on the promotion of community well-being. This creates so many problems in city hubs, gives rise to disjointed urban centres and generates a worrying absence of bonds between districts which emphasizes the city centres' lack of attractiveness.
