Workshops in Architecture and Urban Morphology (WAM) is an educational-scientific tool directed to the basic themes of Architecture and Urban Design. Urban Morphology is the main instrument used for these experiences. Each workshop involves one or more institutions (universities, municipalities, foundations) and is coordinated by academics and practitioners. It is held in three stages: a first one, methodological, during which the participants (M.Sc. students) learn the main instruments of Urban Morphology and apply them to the "structural" reading of the project area; a second phase, the in-the-field Workshop, during which they verify the reading and set up the project's main frame. A third and final phase is then entirely dedicated to the environmental design and to the preparation of the final project. This series aims at documenting the possible educational/operative outcomes of a "morphological" design methodology for the contemporary sustainable city.
