Type of study-unit	Obbligatorio (Required)
Language of instruction	English
Contents	The module aims to provide students with the skills necessary to design the possible interactions between human species and plant species (ex. therapeutic garden, sensory garden, garden of breath, etc.) with particular regard to the issue of eco-sustainability in the areas of Interior Design, Exhibit Design or Retail Design.
Reference texts	Recommended textbooks. EXEMPTION PROVIDED BY TEACHER 1 - CORRADO M., 2012 - Manuale del verde in architettura.

Educational objectives	The basic knowledge of systematic botany must be acquired with nomenclatural rules, general characteristics, reproduction and evolutionary aspects of the plant kingdom. Choice of the most representative species with application aspects and methods of use in setting up the various types of indoor and outdoor green areas. Determinant for the preparation of the student is the knowledge of the main species to be used in the preparation, recovery and enhancement of the various types of functional green (vertical green, hanging green, therapeutic green, lawns and others) and the use in Interior Design, Exhibit Design or Retail Design. The acquired knowledge of the most important tree species, shrubby, ground cover / ground cover and climbing plants, will allow a correct planning and use of the territory both in the urban and in the extra-urban environment.
Prerequisites
Teaching methods	Theoretical activity: in the classroom on all the topics listed in the program. Lectures in the classroom on all topics of the course with the use of computer support that allow you to gradually get to the final concept. At the end of each lesson short summaries will be made with relevant application examples. Practical activity: excursions will be carried out in the various types of green and the species will be indicated to be used in various contexts, providing also their biological characteristics. At the end of the practical activities or guided exercises, students will have free access to the same sites for further individual study.
