Show more >The EPFL Latsis Congress demonstrates that the notion of Horizontal Metropolis, which Paola Viganò first put forward in the context of Brussels2040 (Secchi and Viganò 2012), then theorized by a retroactive genealogy based on Gloeden’s cellular model (Viganò in Images Mid-Size City OASE 89:94–111, 2013), also raises many echoes in other quite diversified disciplines. It would thus have the potential to become a way for reconceiving contemporary spatial changes in a multidisciplinary way (with economics, ecology, philosophy, politics, engineering, architecture, urban planning and landscape). As a result, it could also become a collective construction, which the success of the congress sketches out. My contribution to this joint elaboration could start with a reflection on what that notion should not be, to then discuss what it could allow us to think in another way.Show less >
