Relazione uomo-architettura nelle vele di Scampia. Lo spazio di risonanza.

The relationship between man and the built environment determines the development of socio-psychological systems that can condition each other. If architecture prevails over man, complex and articulated logics develop that cannot be foreseen, as in the case of the Vele di Scampia design in Naples. And this, according to the authors, is one of those cases in which Franz Di Salvo's ambitious and perhaps utopian project clashed with deviant social models. The criteria for the composition of the built environment should include the dynamics of social relations and their interaction with the environment but this did not occur in this particular design. The analysis of the socio-environmental system related to the experience of the Vele is conducted in the light of Gregory Bateson's theories of structural-functionalist and interactionist anthropology, and the results of his research show that in all contexts living beings and the architecture they inhabit are in continuous mutual interaction, just as the inhabitants and the ‘Vele’ are.
