Modelli progettuali del locus fratrum predicatorum: Ravenna (1269). Design models of the locus fratrum predicatorum: Ravenna (1269)
(Steinhäuser Verlag, Wuppertal, 2021) Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; CAMIZ, Alessandro
On March the 2nd 1269 Philip from Pistoia, archbishop of Ravenna, in presence of a large group of persons, ordered the commune of Ravenna to assign a substantial urban area for the construction of the church, the convent and the cemetery of S. Domenico. The document describes the properties to expropriate in particular the church of S. Maria in Gallope, a turreted palatial complex whose construction dated back to the Byzantine times (VI century), and a number of houses. The centrality of the place, previously linked to the exarchal residence, thus assumed a new character oriented towards the settlement of the Dominicans in Ravenna. Subsequently, on October 19th of the same year, the municipal council ordered the extimatio of the area, and in a meeting discussed the construction modalities, including the property’s boundaries detailed description, the construction of a new road and the project’s financial details. The interest for this case study relies on the double instrumentum, archiepiscopal and municipal, testifying a concordia inter clericos et laycos that, even though noted in the communal statute for over 50 years, assumed here a specific and programmatic character. The reconstruction of the pre-existing and subsequent topography of the site, based on the emphyteutic lease documents (V-XIII cent.), superimposed on the rectified redesign of the Gregorian cadaster2, allowed an in-depth study of the design models of the locus fratrum predicatorum in Ravenna, and through the comparison with other coeval examples, the individuation of the typical formation process of the western conventual building.

Paesaggio. Ciò che è o ciò che si vede?
(Istituto della Enciclopedia italiana fondata da Giovanni Treccani, 2020-09) Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; CAMIZ, Alessandro
There are different ways of understanding the landscape that surrounds us. According to the European Landscape Convention (2000), it "designates a certain part of the territory, as perceived by the populations, whose character derives from the action of natural and / or human factors and their interrelations".

The typological plan of Zaragoza for the typological process of the medieval city
(University of Strathclyde Publishing, 2022) Özkuvancı, Özge; Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; Feliciotti, A.; Fleischmann, M.; CAMIZ, Alessandro; ÖZKUVANCI, Özge
Studies on the formation process of building types delineate a long term transition in the form of the city. The findings of the excavations done in Palmyra and Bet Shean have revealed that the transition from the late Roman period to the Umayyad one happened with strong continuity of the built environment (Raymond, 2008). The evolution of building types has been expounded by Caniggia (1979) in Naples as the formation of courtyard houses over the Roman Domus substrata. Meanwhile, no trace of transition from Roman Domus was found in parts of central Italy (including Rome), southern Italy (excluding Naples), and Provence (Petruccioli, 2008). This paper aims to describe the typological process subsistent in the development of medieval Zaragoza with reference to the forces shaping the building blocks and their organization. The city of Zaragoza was founded by Caesar Augustus as a colony after the victory of the Roman Empire in the Cantabrian Wars in 14 BC on the site of an Iberian city named Saldube. In the VIII century, the Roman city was included in the Umayyad caliphate. Previous theoretical reconstructions based on archeological evidence cast the urban tissue of Caesar Augusta into a grid plan with special buildings and courtyard houses as the leading residential type. This study evaluates the territory as a historically identified organism (Strappa, Carlotti, Camiz, 2017) by mounting the individual building survey plans done by Dionisio Casañal y Zapatero for the Geographic and Cadastral Institute of Zaragoza in 1911 into a typological plan in order to individuate the typological process within the medieval city.

Zaragoza’nın tipolojik sürecinin sıra evler üzerinden incelenmesi
(Türkiye Kentsel Morfoloji Ağı, Konya, 2023) Özkuvancı, Özge; Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; ÖZKUVANCI, Özge; CAMIZ, Alessandro
Bu çalışma, Zaragoza'dakiyapılı çevrenin geçirdiği tipolojik süreci, farklı yapı tiplerinin ortaya çıkışına neden olan koşulları göz önüne alarak tanımlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Zaragoza şehrinin, MÖ 14'te Roma İmparatorluğu tarafından Saldube adlı bir Kelt-İber şehrinin bulunduğu konumda bir askeri koloni olarak kurulduğu düşünülmektedir. Mevcut teorik rekonstrüksiyonlar arkeolojik buluntulardan yararlanarak Caesar Augusta'nın birinci yüzyıldaki kentsel dokusunu Roma tipi avlulu evlerden oluşan ızgara plan üzerine yerleştirmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında Zaragoza Coğrafya ve Kadastro Enstitüsü için 1911'de hazırlanan yapı rölövelerinden yararlanarak kentin tipolojik planı hazırlanmış ve bu plan doğrultusunda ilgili bölge arkeolojik verilerin de incelenmesiyle tarihsel sürecin ortaya çıkardığı bir organizma (Strappa, Carlotti, Camiz, 2017)olarak analiz edilmiştir. Kent dokusunun geçirdiği değişimlerin ana hatlarını belirlemek için ilk adım olarak kentin surlarla çevrili bölgesinde bulunan sıra evlerin tipolojik süreci çözümlenmiş ve mevcut diğer yapı tipleriyle olan ilişkisi ortaya koyulmuştur. https://tnum.org.tr/index.php/tnum/article/view/271

Image reintegration. Restoring the Palace in the Kyrenia Castle, Cyprus
(Gangemi Editore, 2019) Valletta, E.; Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; Conte, A.; Guida, A.; CAMIZ, Alessandro
Built next to the ancient harbour the castle of Kyrenia overlooks the surrounding historical fabric as a monumental landmark. The Byzantines established a fortress in the X century; this was transformed in a crusader castle in the XIII century, and then became one of the residences of the King of Cyprus. The Venetian rule brought further substantial modifications the XVI century. The enhancement project focuses on the recognition of the artefact’s cultural value and the implicit need of its conservation. The surface consolidation is necessary to prevent the erosion of the ashlars. The project has been conceived in compliance with the principle of “authenticity of the material”, and based the reintegration of the architectural lacuna on the western facade on the philological reconstruction of the architectural elements in corten steel panels with a reversible and recognizable solution. The partial reconstruction of the portico running along the ground floor enhances the historical spatiality and redistributes the Shipwreck museum, envisaging unitary planning in order facilitate the monument’s accessibility.

또 다른 장소의 정령 : 건축 경관 이론에 대한 기록
(Archlab, Seoul, Korea, 2019-07) Camiz, Alessandro; Architecture; CAMIZ, Alessandro
After the publication of Norberg-Schulz’s book on Genius Loci in 1979 , the term Genius Loci became the logo of an anti-modern intellectual rebellion in search of deep meaning within the meanders of architecture and landscape, it became akin to a dragon banner raised in the crusade against the loss of memory generated by the modern movement. Such an interpretation, still deeply rooted within the generation of architects that graduated in those years, is nevertheless absolutely reductive, not only of the phenomenological message that Norberg-Schultz meant in those years, but above all has nothing to do with the genius loci, as intended in Roman times.
