Carmen Fiol as Keynote Speaker at ADITUS – Inclusive Design Laboratory in Sardinia

Orani, Sardinia | 5–14 November 2026

From 5 to 14 November, Orani hosts ADITUS – the Laboratory of Inclusive Architectural Design for Cultural Heritage, organised by the Cagliari Accessibility Lab at the University of Cagliari.

The programme aims to develop proposals to improve accessibility to Orani’s cultural heritage, particularly sites associated with artist Costantino Nivola: the Church of Nostra Signora d’Itria, the Museo Nivola and the Pergola Village project.

Among the invited speakers is Carmen Fiol, co-founder and co-director of Arriola & Fiol, who will deliver a keynote lecture on 12 November, addressing accessibility from an urban planning perspective.

Her lecture will explore the relationship between public space, mobility, architecture and landscape, focusing on reconnecting urban areas fragmented by infrastructure, changes in level and spatial barriers, and creating accessible environments for people with diverse needs and abilities.

Her participation contributes to the international discussion on accessibility as an essential component of public space design and contemporary urban planning.
