The research presented examines the satellite neighbourhood “Patrizia” (1966-68), designed by Alvar Aalto for the San Lanfranco area in Pavia, visualized through the integrated use of digital tools and AI. The aim is the constructing of a critical framework to investigate how contemporary technologies interpret and transform architectural and urban form. The research method, between history, drawing, and digital modelling, employs algorithmic procedures to vary the morphological parameters of buildings and the urban layout, focusing on massing, volumetric relations, and settlement visual perception. The resulting outputs highlight the potential, limits and approximations of digital representational tools, offering a critical overview on their use in architectural unbuilt project history
