Description
Summary:The contribution presents part of activities that have been carried out for the preparation of the Conservation Plan of the Giancarlo De Carlo’s University Colleges of Urbino, funded by the Getty Foundation within the “Keeping it Modern” program in 2015. Starting form a comprehensive evaluation and understanding of the values that are represented in the complex, the Conservation Plan aims at establishing a “sustainable” management strategy, which means finding a “point of balance” between conservation and change, between an important cultural value, which has led to an international recognition, and the demands of everyday management. Within the Conservation Plan, specific guidelines for the preservation of modern materials and architectural elements and a schedule of interventions, preventive activities and controls are being developed. This paper presents the first steps of the research, the results already achieved and the themes currently being discussed.
