💡 On Tuesday, the Foundation was invited by Politecnico di Milano to take part in the workshop: “Il futuro della progettazione urbana interdisciplinare: il tavolo luminoso” (The future of Interdisciplinary Urban Design: The Luminous Planning Table). At POLIMI, Barbara E. A. Piga full time Professor and Researcher at @LABSIMURB presented the Luminous Planning Table (LPT), a phygital picture that combines both physical and digital models to aid in the design, evaluation, and understanding of urban transformations. 📘 The version showcased to stakeholders is the result of collaboration with Marco Boffi, a Professor of Social and Environmental Psychology at Università degli Studi di Milano, who provided a fresh perspective by analysing the connection between spaces and communities, and design influences people’s wellbeing. Thanks to its user-friendly and multi-user platform, the Luminous Planning Table allows both stakeholders and professionals to interact directly with the simulated environment, experimenting in real-time the effects of architecture and environmental changes, from shadows to visual perception, to atmosphere and temperature variations. 🌍 The collaborative project is part of the activities carried out by Spoke 1 ‘Urban Regeneration – Cities of Tomorrow’ of MUSA scarl – Multilayered Urban Sustainability Action, financed by the European Union under the PNRR. #innovation #milan #urbandesign #psychology #architecture #design #bicocca #milanobicocca #unimi #polimi
