(Un)certain lines and landscapes. Marginal coastal landscapes in the climatic crisis

Speaker: Laura CIPRIANI, TU Delft Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment

Discussant: Antonio LONGO, Politecnico di Milano

General subject area: Landscape Design through Research

 

Due to the climatic crisis, coastal areas on the planet will face an uncertain future. If thematic literature and projects have mainly focused on coastal lines facing large cities worldwide, marginal coastal landscapes, mainly agricultural with low levels of urbanization, are partly neglected in the debate.
This contribution intends to reflect on the (un)certain marginal landscapes and lines of Northeast Italy. This territory – from Marano Lagoon to the Po River Delta – and its people are facing an uncertain future, while currently wrestling with a latent climatic, economic-productive and social crisis. Eustatism, subsidence, soil erosion, saltwater intrusion, industrial and agricultural water pollution, dying economic activities testify to a territory in the throes of long-term repossession by the sea. Which design interventions, tools, and methods can be implemented and used in this state of uncertainty?
