The workshop looks into the reuse of buildings in Italy that have lost their original function and which now host different functions in the same spaces and rethink about these places as international, open and hybrid, through the common denominator of culture. The workshop highlights the different approaches to the challenges, and often the contradictions, these entities have to overcome.
