About

A heritage devolute, underused or under processes of deep remodelling - Hospitals are facilities in permanent functional, technological, social reconfiguration.

The Seminar explores strategies and discourses on urban integration, deinstitutionalisation and citizen proximity in the management, programming and design of hospital rehabilitation, using an international panel of communicators.

Under the research project CuCa_RE, the seminar "dwelling the house of man - rehabilitation of hospital equipment" raises conceptual issues through the invitation to present hospital design themes.
