    Abstract The discourse on demolition is generally characterized by emotional tones and conflicts. This is particularly evident in the debate on social housing districts. A debate that is particularly influenced by stigmatizing images and on which symbolic investments are particularly high, both for residents and for public institutions. In the case of a « signed » architecture, the controversy may be even more intense, because the conflict between different values is explicit. On one side, the values of comfort and habitability, supported mainly by the inhabitants. On the other side, the cultural value that recognizes an artefact as a collective heritage, supported above all by intellectual elites. This is what emerges from the case examined: a demolition hypothesis concerning a housing complex built in Bollate, near Milan, by the architect Guido Canella between 1974 and 1980. The architect’s mobilization, which replaces the lack of collective recognition with the claim of a “copyright”, is an interesting specificity of this story.

    Abstract Abstract The ‘family house’ has played a major role within the urbanisation processes that have been transforming the Italian landscape since the 1960s. It is a common feature of the widespread settlements that are part of what has been labelled the ‘diffuse city’ and was the subject of numerous studies during the 1990s. More than 20 years later, this paper returns to the topic of the Italian family house using a renewed methodological approach to describe relevant changes. The hypothesis here is that in order to grasp the tensions affecting ‘family houses’ in today’s context of demographic transition and increased imbalances between dynamic and declining areas, and to contemplate their future, the qualitative gaze adopted by scholars in the 1990s must be integrated with other investigative tools, focusing on demographic change, uses, and the property values of buildings. Using this perspective, the paper provides a series of ‘portraits’ rooted in four meaningful territorial contexts, portraits which may help scholars to redefine their imagery associated with family house and be useful for dedicated building policies.
