Il sistema palazzo-giardino nel tessuto urbano storico Genovese: Il caso di Palazzo Interiano Pallavicino a Genova

Palazzo Interiano Pallavicino in Genoa stands as a rare, fully preserved example of the historic 'palace-garden system,' offering insights into the perceptual dynamics between architectural volumes and green spaces from its design period. This study employs an interdisciplinary approach—combining historical, archival, bibliographic, iconographic sources with modern integrated survey techniques—to critically analyze the evolution, spatial distribution, and volumetric relationships within the palace and its garden. The investigation uncovers the intricate connections between the historic garden's layout and the architectural elements of the palace, including traditional Ligurian features like ninfeas, greenhouses, terraces, and complementary structures. By contextualizing these findings within the socio-cultural landscape of 16th-century Genoa, the research sheds light on the historical significance and enduring legacy of this UNESCO World Heritage Site component.
