Project III

Architecture
  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    The Project III course focuses on developing critical thinking essential to the practice of architecture and the development of an architectural project. It aims to develop tools for developing projects in different contexts and conditions, always considering the living space. The course aims to provide a studio environment for drawing and discussion between students and teachers on the different subject areas that converge in the project. The theme for the first semester of the second year of Design is based on the topic: 'Domestic space and housing. Design: thought, drawing and space'. Thus, in terms of thematic approach, in the 1st semester of the 2nd year, the aim is to focus on the design process based on thinking and criticism (observation and analysis), design (process) and space (scale, form and structure).
  • ProgramaProgramme
    CP1: Observation, analysis, and critique of domestic space, the building, and the urban context. CP2: Critical thinking and development of the design process. CP3: Drawing as a tool for conception, investigation, and communication. CP4: Domestic space, housing, and modes of dwelling. CP5: Scale, form, structure, and spatial organization. CP6: Housing and integration into the urban context. CP7: Housing typologies and notable examples of modern and contemporary architecture. CP8: Fundamentals of technical drawing and architectural representation. CP9: Models as tools for analysis, experimentation, and communication. CP10: Materials, techniques, and basic construction systems. CP11: Development of a small- or medium-scale housing project. CP12: Presentation and communication of the process and the architectural proposal.
  • ObjectivosObjectives
    The objectives of the CU are: O1:To develop the ability to design based on thinking and criticism (observation and analysis), drawing (process) and space (scale, form and structure). O2:To explore the notions of living space, in buildings and in the context of the city. O3:To develop notions of scale. O4:To develop the fundamentals of technical drawing. O5:To develop the creation of models as a design tool. O6:Learn about basic construction techniques and materials. O7:Learn about and study notable examples of architecture. O8:Understand the importance of the role of architecture in society in various areas: social, economic, cultural, environmental and in the quality of life of citizens, both in the context of inhabiting private space (the home) and in the context of inhabiting public or collective space, which encompasses a wide variety of programmes.
