Abstract

The mission toward urban sustainability requires tools for developing a vision and for monitoring change through time. For instance, representation of past, current and future places is the first medium we can work with in order to map the path toward sustainability. The launch of the university project ‘Città Studi Campus Sostenibile’ for the renewal of the campus according to sustainability principles was the occasion to use modeling as a powerful “hub” for converging and disseminating relevant information, thus supporting and fostering urban change. In this study we explore the role of urban modeling and simulation within a highly collaborative design process and introduce several applications for the sustainable campus project.
