In recent years, refurbishment of existing buildings as well as reuse of abandoned areas has become the central issue of strategies and funding programs. The focus of this research is Poveglia, Italy: an abandoned island in the lagoon of Venice. The underpinning idea is to refurbish Poveglia as a zero energy Cognitive University Campus, connected to other educational institutions in the lagoon. It aims at the reuse of abandoned islands by combining architecture with digital networks. The goal is to demonstrate the potential of new technologies for the transformation of existing structures into adequate and innovative locations for learning activities. Poveglia case study, exemplifies the implementation of suitable systems and tools. The island works as part of the `smart city, smart campus network´. In such scenario, Poveglia is understood as part of a bigger context, which requires both strategies for historical preservation as well as for energy efficiency.
