Class Architectural Design II

The curricular unit of Architectural Design II, lasting 1 semester, consists of theoretical-practical classes, lasting 8 hours per week. Among the various objectives to be achieved, it is intended: To bring the student of Architecture closer to the practice of the sketch configured as a creative process, referring to drawing as a way of thinking and communicating; Explore the domain of architectural space through the representation of the space itself, following varied approaches and strategies; Begin the process of formalizing an author's language.

The following reflection is considered in the final part of the teaching program: The value of "drawing" depends on its potential to "design" an "object" (1) Defining "drawing", framing it in the concepts - Operative and Operative, respectively: as Initial Sketch; as Morphological Ambiguity; as Refusal of Virtuosity; as Irresolution for the Imagination; in the Intrinsic Value of Drawing as a Graphic Mark; in the Freedom to Create Expressively; and Thinking with the Senses (2); Operative in Coherence and Geometric Realism; in Topological Accuracy; in Resolution for the Production of the Object; in the Model of Representation through Standardization; in the Instrumental Quality of the Drawing; in the Copy of the Clarified Object; and in the Understanding of the Imagined Object. Defining "designing" understood in the set of problems to be overcome for the realization of an idea. Defining "object" as an architectural piece or territory.

The following basic problems are proposed: The Object in the drawing - External problematization, Faithful representation through observation drawing (3); The Drawing in the Object - Internal problematization, form, structure, construction, aesthetics; The Object/Drawing - Dialogue between the operative and operational method, Reciprocity between the object and the drawing, Associative and deductive intelligence (4); The Object in Space and in relation to the Human Figure. (5) Awareness is raised about - “doing”; about the ability to “recognize”; about understanding the imaginary; about associating and deducing; from irresolution to resolution; and about productivity through the complementarity of the operative and operational values. Complementarity with the European research program and the DAU Roadmaps
