Description
Large-scale interventions, which guide the transformation of today’s cities, are often linked to the problem of mobility. Despite this, the relationship between urbanity and infrastructure is often ambiguous. On the one hand, human flows represent key components of the transformations, on the other, their presence is gradually disappearing from the public space. Starting from this observation, the book reflects on such a strange relationship, in particular addressing the history of twentieth-century architecture in search of forgotten opportunities for a more relevant urban design.
