This research project investigates the possibility of developing a multidisciplinary tool to demolish ugly buildings and get rid of what is inhospitable, unattractive and a burden on society. This subject stems from the present debate on the use of soil, consumption of land, and on the selective intervention on the built stock and urban landscape. The investigation started on questioning the reasons behind the habit of keeping rusty, ugly and inhospitable structures in place, instead of demolishing them.
