The Castle of Montalenghe and its farmstead

The case study is the castle of Montalenghe, an abandoned eighteenth-century villa waiting to be restored together with the farmstead built in its surrounding park. Flanking advanced techniques and traditional tools, great attention has been devoted to the knowledge phase – mainly focusing, this year, on the simplest farmstead – with the aim to understand the buildings’ constructional nature. This turns out to be a paradigmatic example of the implicit sustainability of historical architecture (built with local material and traditional resource-saving techniques) and its comprehension allows the very design phase to comply with the same approach.
