In “About Streets and Time,” a rich tapestry of critical and interdisciplinary reflections is delineated with the aim of decoding the contemporary significance of public space and its physical, political and social declinations. The street, in all its different forms, names and meanings, encloses the distinctive characteristics of the community it inhabits, offering insights into the historical, social and cultural narratives that shape its identity. This issue of in_bo presents the most recent researches on the concept of the Time of Streets, addressing multiple interpretations, from semantics to urban morphology, from history to collective memory, highlighting that understanding the cycles and rhythms that create the wrinkles of the city is fundamental to imagining and designing the future of streets.
