To achieve this\, the develop ment of a historical and theoretical framework is complemented by an exten sive survey of best practices across the continent\, bringing in a wide ra nge of perspectives. Moreover\, by fostering dialogue between construction history and contemporary design\, the conference seeks to explore and pro mote innovative methodologies for incorporating Upcycling practices in the regeneration of Europe&rsquo\;s post-WWII built heritage. More broadly\, it seeks to contribute to a global renewal of contemporary European constr uction culture. \;The October 2025 International Conference in Turin&n bsp\;also strives to contribute to the public debate on these critical the mes\, which are particularly relevant during a time of major technological and energy transition.

Organized within the framework of t
he Research Project of National Relevance (PRIN) &ldquo\;Upcycling Archite
cture in Italy: Forging and Promoting a Renewed Building Culture\,&rdquo\;
this International Conference aims to bring together new insights and per
spectives on the history\, theory\, and practice of Upcycling architecture
and Design for Disassembly (DfD). \;
The October 2025 International Conference in
Turin \;also strives to contribute to the public debate on these crit
ical themes\, which are particularly relevant during a time of major techn
ological and energy transition. The research framework is shaped in respon
se to several pressing contemporary challenges\, many of which stem from t
he ongoing energy and environmental crises\, exacerbated by the current ge
opolitical climate. \;
Key considerations\, such as
EU policies on the rational use of building materials\, the aging of Ital
y&rsquo\;s built heritage\, and the rising costs of construction materials
\, have further focused this research. From this perspective\, the confere
nce aims to make a targeted and meaningful contribution to the strategies
of the European Green Deal and related initiatives.
