_______BORGO DIGITALE is the Research Program of Syracuse University School of Architecture in Florence. This website will act as a shared research platform for our students as well as a way to reach wider audiences for the development of the work._________________________________________

___________________________________The program investigates the ongoing negotiation of local-historical traditions and global-contemporary values using Florence and Italy as site of investigation. Rather than focusing on static, monolithic imaginaries of Italian culture with their nostalgic drive, we are interested in bringing such histories in conversation with contemporary design practices and pedagogies___________________________________

______Our event series includes invited guest lecturers, digital workshops and public reviews________________

_________Reach out to us if you have any questions, if you are interested in collaborating, or just to say hi! ____
