Magnani C. (cur.); Frisone C. (cur.)
Ship & yacht design. Forme e architetture
ill., br. "Il problema dell'arredamento navale va al di là della semplice questione di comodità, di eleganza, di gusto. Esso è, attraverso l'opera degli artisti e degli esecutori, una viva testimonianza del tenore della civiltà della Nazione che sulla nave esercita l'ospitalità". Così scriveva Gio Ponti nel 1931 su "Domus", commentando gli allestimenti di Gustavo Pulitzer Finali per la Victoria, prima nave passeggeri italiana. In quegli anni, e fino al secondo dopoguerra, il mondo dell'architettura, con i suoi più alti esponenti, collaborava attivamente con un'industria navale che accoglieva il codice moderno adattandolo alla consolidata tradizione artigianale italiana. Da le uniche sedi depositarie del sapere tecnico-scientifico del campo sono state le facoltà di ingegneria navale. Il volume, a metà tra saggio e manuale, raccoglie gli interventi teorici di alcuni tra i maggiori esperti italiani nelle materie navali, tutti docenti del Master Iuav, che affrontano molteplici temi d'interesse: dalla rinnovata progettazione navale alla costruzione sostenibile dei mezzi marini, dall'ingegneria costruttiva al disegno degli interni, alla formazione e all'insegnamento dell'architettura navale oggi, soffermandosi anche sui regolamenti dei Registri Navali, sulle marine e i porti commerciali, sull'aggiornamento delle normative in continua evoluzione.
