城市公共空间，至少在我们通常赋予它的意义上，是一个通用的、相对较新的术语。事实上，我们不能谈论希腊化的罗马城邦的广场，罗马古代的广场和浴场，阿拉伯-穆斯林地中海城市的soukandbazaar，或者黎凡特的波斯广场和类似空间的公共空间。这些空间具有特定的功能目的地（商业、机构、代表性、庆祝和卫生），其名称在城市地形中同样精确。同样的考虑也适用于中世纪的广场，甚至更适用于文艺复兴和巴洛克时期的广场，这些广场与新王子想要的具有代表性的场景的正式需求有关。现代建筑运动对公共空间也不感兴趣，在设计新的理性街区时，将注意力集中在建筑遗产的经济、类型和社会更新上。“公共空间”并不是一个或多个精确的功能。实际上，它没有任何功能。公共空间的概念出现在我们所处的城市环境中，而这些城市环境还没有得到巩固和形式化。因此，“公共空间”的概念与城市空间问题的解决联系在一起。该项目旨在将“空”转化为“满”空间，丰富的意义和价值，为城市文脉带来新的亮点，并在其中编织新的关系。
Urban public space, at least in the meaning we usually attribute to it, is a generic and relatively recent term. In fact, we cannot speak of public spaces for theagoraiof the Hellenistic Romanpolis, theforaand the baths of Roman antiquity or for thesoukandbazarof the Arab-Muslim Mediterranean cities, or the Persianmaidanand similar spaces of the Levant. These spaces had a specific functional destination (commercial, institutional, representative, celebratory, and sanitary) and a name that was equally precise in urban topography. The same consideration can be made for the medieval squares, and, even more so, for the Renaissance and Baroque squares, linked to the formal needs of the representative scenography wanted by the new princes. The Modern Movement in architecture is also scarcely interested in public spaces, reserving its attention to the economic, typological and social renewal of the building heritage when designing the new rationalquartieri. The “public space” is not characterized by one or more precise functions. Actually, it has no function. The idea of public space emerges when we are involved in urban situations that are not yet consolidated and formalized. Therefore, the idea of “public space” is linked to the solution of the problem of urban voids. The project aims at transforming an “empty” into a “full” space, rich of meanings and values that throw new light on the urban context, and weave new relationships within it.
