CARTA

City Environment Networks Territory Actions

The CARTA Laboratory was created through the collaboration of professors and researchers from the Urban Planning courses offered as part of the single-cycle Master's Degree in Architecture at the University of Bologna, Cesena campus. Established in 2006 as a space for the conservation and distribution of cartographic materials, over time CARTA has become a place for sharing knowledge and practices and for experimentation focused on the local area and conducted in collaboration with students.

The CARTA Laboratory develops study and action research activities in support of the research projects of the Department of Architecture at the University of Bologna and the teaching activities of the Urban Planning Laboratory of the Degree Course in Architecture at the Cesena campus.
