The routes of rationalism: the origin of the project The routes of rationalism: the project The project stems from the will of the partners shared in proposing a particular route, called the City of Culture" which relies on the rationalist heritage of 900. This course aims to revitalize Como s rationalist identity, and give it a new life, which is one of a kind and quite unique, through a cultural approach, based on several parallel activities of local marketing. The project for which we have involved the Polytechnic of Como, through the lake Poly School, is a business case aimed to develop the design of a management and informative system that will deal with the several paths and its various types of users who will benefit from them. We ll start with an analysis of the cultural heritage available as well as an analysis of the users in terms of culture, age and origin. The project will take care of several aspects: o Technological o Infrastructural o Amusement o Informative 19 20 The routes of rationalism: the Como s Rationalism heritage The routes of rationalism: the case R Casa del Fascio A Negozio Vitrum Z Hotel Metropole Suisse I Giardini a lago O Monumento ai caduti N Novocomun A Canottieri Lario L Stadio Sinigallia I Hangar S Passeggiata Gelpi M Villa Olmo O Villa del Grumello 21 and will adopt an APP as the main instrument working on the most compatible devices and systems This APP will be able to promote and give full value to events, making them known to local community. It also will be capable to make information available regarding transportation from one P.O.I to another as well as managing online games. This project will count on the scientific cooperation of Como s order of Architects represented here by Architect Angelo Monti. They will take care of both architectural and historical appreciation of the assets that will have been identified as part of the Routes of Rationalism project. 22 The routes of rationalism : the goals Lechler: who we are Project will be endowed with a feasibility plan as to designing, managing and maintenance costs. The project is very ambitious as to goals. We strive to build an everlasting value system for the region in terms of cultural and economical aspects. We also want to promote this one-of a-kind heritage in all possible ways and directions. Our ambition is to bring the Rationalist part of Como around the world and make it known not only to be as George Clooney s nest. The challenge is to join this project, which is really about you and will be for the next twenty years. 23 24
