Luce e spazio a Tirana
Dal rapporto tra luce naturale e artificiale alla qualità percettiva dello spazio urbano e architettonico nella capitale albanese
Parole chiave:
Luce naturale, Luce artificiale, Percezione urbana, Identità architettonica, Rigenerazione urbana
Abstract
La luce, nelle sue componenti naturale e artificiale, è oggi uno degli elementi più significativi nel processo di trasformazione architettonica e urbana di Tirana. Il dialogo tra tradizione mediterranea, innovazione tecnologica e sostenibilità genera nuovi paesaggi luminosi capaci di ridefinire la percezione degli spazi pubblici e costruiti. L’articolo indaga il ruolo della luce come fattore identitario, sociale e simbolico, evidenziando come essa contribuisca alla rigenerazione urbana, al benessere degli abitanti e alla costruzione di una rinnovata immagine collettiva della capitale albanese.
