Abstract
In the project conceived for the site of Tilmen Höyük, an archaeological and environmental park at the same time, the main purpose was to reinforce heritage protection whilst promoting a cultural and economic process for involving actively the local population. Designers and architects from the University of Genoa aimed at developing diverse planning scenarios, at different working scales. This multiple approach shows that heritage conservation is not a merely technical question, but a research matter with its own intrinsic value. The research group investigated the proposition of an innovative approach for designing efficient solutions in terms of products, communication and services, in which 3D renderings also played an essential role in letting the public interact with ancient remains.

Carried out in 2004–2006 and co-funded by the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research, that project (the acronym of which was D.CULT) has seen the collaboration of seven Italian design schools based at the universities of Genoa (the author was national coordinator), Naples-Federico II, Rome La Sapienza, Palermo, the Politecnico of Milan (Departments In.D.A.Co. and B.E.S.T.) and the Politecnico of Turin. These academic institutions were joined by the Department of Geography and Human Sciences of the Environment belonging to the University of Milan, which focused on the user, with special regard to aspects of cognitive and social psychology.
