Abstract
Rehabilitating a lighthouse, within the italian scenario, it’s a really complex challenge.Many of the active italian lighthouses (estimated in 160 lights) are at risk of decay; it’s an ancient heritage where many lights were built more than 150 years ago. The Italian Navy is appointing adaptive re-use of buildings and conservation projects.Capo Spartivento lighthouse, built in 1866 and located in the southern point of Sardinia, can be considered as an exemplar project. At the end of the (restoration) works the lighthouse looks more comfortable, technological, eco- friendly and Mediterranean, in a perfect fit with the surrounding environment. The lighthouse can be seen as a best practice project in terms of architectural tuning and sustainanle materials, energy saving and power production by way of renewables and sustainable design technologies.
