description The paper addresses the issue of energy transition through the regeneration and reuse of abandoned urban spaces. While the theme of re-naturalisation of soils and preservation of natural environments is a familiar one in contemporary architectural culture, the need to rethink the systematisation of individual interventions in order to arrive at a transcalar approach to design seems to be a reflection that still requires the necessary critical investigation. In this sense, the contribution, through the reading of some case studies, investigates the potential that elements such as urban voids and landscape-territorial systems, declined in their ability to affect the energy transition, are capable of generating for the project, contributing directly and indirectly on transformative phenomena, both in urban and peripheral areas.   Article info Received: 18/03/2024; Revised: 23/04/2024; Accepted: 07/05/2024
