Strutture formali e alfabeti compositivi. Impianti urbani romani nelle regioni desertiche del Mediterraneo. Progetto di un sistema interattivo per la conoscenza e la gestione del patrimonio culturale del Mediterraneo

Been examined in the paper some models of plants Roman, designed in a first phase of work as sets of small units that are organized into complex units. Are highlighted through the use of survey and design of their transformations and aggregations but also their morphological systems studied as sediments deposited in the ground visible (through a satellite view) as a special urban forms now almost vanished in the desert sand. The aim of the research work was to analyze the relationship between the original idea of the urban form perceivable by the satellite view and one that remains as a trace on the ground when interpreting the urban foundation in order to give back a lost art and architectural dimension only registered in the "genetic principle".
