APP_cycling Tor Bella Monaca

The regeneration of the Tor Bella Monaca district is an issue that cannot be faced ignoring the social, environmental and technological evidence that nowadays concerns most of the Italian or international peripheral settlements. The APP_ cycling proposal intends not only to overturn the marginal condition of empty spaces, relocating them at the center of the dynamics related to the suburban living. The project also seize the challenge of intervening not with specific solutions, but on the entire socio-technical-environmental system of the study area. As regards to the first aspect, we operate through regenerative, coherent and integrated activities, without separations between the general urban system, open spaces, infrastructures and interventions that support inhabitants. Concerning the second aspect, pre-feasibility is interpreted not as a closed and predetermined technical act, but as a projection of transversal scenarios that involve multiple problematic levels, different families of interventions and multiple solutions. The proposal responds to the pre-feasibility challenge by proposing a project-process that mediates between strategic, tactical and operational interventions. In this way, more co-evolutionary visions are determined, relying on open opportunities, to reconnect in a regenerative sense the different technical-environmental, socio-economic and cultural entities that today are ignored or are conflicting, but tomorrow they could become fundamental for a new model of coexistence in the urban suburbs.
