Complexity and innovation have already become fundamental criteria in appreciating the value of an architectural design. In fact, they respond to the need to take up contemporary challenges and find solutions that are no longer strictly connected to the domains they belong to. Any design, once implemented, has consequences on multiple scales, on a diversity of users and diverse fields of activity; it can even become an element that leads to progress or even an engine of progress. This book debates the issue of the dimension of complexity and innovation in the architectural and urban planning academic environment, beyond the boundaries of the respective fields of study, the problem of what is at stake and of the implications in a contemporary professional context.
