The research methodology is based on an integrated approach focused on optimizing the environmental situation, recreating and preserving historical and cultural landscapes and the identity of the place, integrating coastal territories into the existing urban structure, responding to changing living conditions of the city and demands for environmental quality. Experimental design is part of this approach.
