A new approach to built heritage sustainable preservation projects: the case study of Vipol\u17ee Castle - Gori\u161ka Brda, Slovenia

This paper aims to present a multidisciplinary approach to sustainable preservation practice of the built heritage. It is based on interesting features of the Historic Building protocol by GBC Italia and the Villas project experience: the first is a LEED rating system of sustainability in renovation actions; the second is a research programme on Venetian Villas where a group of economists developed an evaluation method for the assessment of vocationality and sustainability of re-use projects. In both cases was detected the problem of adequate incorporating the cultural heritage values in sustainable preservation processes, what brought to new researches presented here
