Rivista Tema, 2015 Sustainable buildings are low impact elements in the world heritage. There is a biunivocal relation between the building renewal and the energy efficiency; in other words, it is necessary the former for obtaining the latter, and vice versa. In this research, the word "knowledge" gains two meanings: the first is related to the analysis of local ...
