Elle a travaillé pendant près de dix ans sous la direction de Philippe Boudon. Elle est aujourd’hui également Maître-assistante des écoles d’architecture Françaises et co-dirige les thèses des doctorants de son laboratoire. Ses objets de recherche portent sur les opérations cognitives de la conception architecturale et leur assistance informatique. Ses travaux nourrissent deux des quatre axes du laboratoire : 1) activités de conception assistée par ordinateur et 2) modélisations précoces.

Parallelism between design and action research is well described in literature. Both methods relate actors and factors to new situations, in order to reach a specific empiric goal through a systematic and sequential process. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 14pt; text-align: justify; vertical-align: middle;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">This study explores architectural research by design as a cyclic process, derived from descriptions of action research, but paraphrased to stages of a design process. It examines the possibility of making valid decisions based on findings of a design, and of a design process. A cyclic model serves as a vehicle to study stages of, among others, reflection, evaluation and decision in cases of research-by-design projects.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 14pt; text-align: justify; vertical-align: middle;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">How striking similarities between design and action research may be, their relationship with reality is fundamentally different. Whereas action research is dealing with processes of change in real live, recording and studying real effects of change, in design major decisions are taken based on possible, probable, highly expectable , but not-recorded effects. Reality in architectural design often is virtual and the intentions and reasoning of the designers argumentation not proven by real life. Although under this conditions it is not possible to make absolute generalizations, reduction and simulation of reality, as offered by design, is often the most appropriate way of gaining knowledge and understanding.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 14pt; text-align: justify; vertical-align: middle;"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;"> It can be expected that for some cases inter-disciplinarity or inter-subjectivity, and iterative feedback with peers and stakeholders can ground assumptions, and improve quality of the outcome.</span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><br />

She is co-editor and author of ‘Atlas of the Dutch urban block’ (Bussum, Thoth 2005). The Atlas was accompanied by a traveling exhibition and lectures on a variety of themes concerning the Dutch urban block. In 2009 the D/E edition of ‘The book Color in Contemporary Architecture, projects, essays, time line and manifestoes’ (Amsterdam, Uitgeverij SUN 2009) was published. Her PhD-thesis deals with ‘The Dutch urban block and the public realm; models, rules, ideals’ (Nijmegen, Vantilt 2010). Recently she researches the possibilities for the transformation of Dutch elementary schools within the framework of the Old School / New School project and urban hybrid buildings as examples of extremely densified urban blocks. February 2010 Tekeningenboek Stadsgebouwen was published, see also ww.grootgrotergrootst.nu.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><br />

As such the European hybrid building potentially extends the city’s public domain horizontally and vertically into the building’s interior and links the public domain inside and outside. Notwithstanding, the hybrid building due to its specific and unconventional character represents a truly urban architecture that was unfortunately often rejected in the name of ‘purity’ of form and function during the twentieth century. Or with other words, its rejection demonstrates the domination of the building’s plan opposed to the section.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small; line-height: 115%;">Today, new frameworks for the city, like the “compact city,” ask for innovative interpretations and designs of building types, worthy to be investigated and proposed.

Accessibility of information became much simpler and to most researchers it is available at a fingertip wherever they have access to the world wide web. Our vertical knowledge cathedrals turned into a series of large horizontal bazaars.<br />
The talk will cover some of the downsides of the movement but mainly concentrate on the new possibilities and changed framework for researchers showing also examples of student works of the Dessau Institute of Architecture (DIA Dessau).<br />
OpenSimSim is one of several examples covered in order to discuss emerging ways of sharing information and conducting research with the help of crowd sourcing and open source ideologies.<br />

Schemes and priorities of our research in architecture have changed several times since the very beginning in early 50’. The most significant change occurred after “the velvet revolution” in 1989. Since 1990 there have existed several sources to support research at universities from. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">The significant part of my contribution is rooted in my own research experience since the time I had joined FA STU in 1975 as a young architect and researcher. The period of 80’ is characterized by the first unintentional attempts to do “research by design” and my “scientific” achievements as by-products of my design work. Some of them resulted in the following issues: conception of mezzo-space, theory the complex perception of architectural space and definition of basic principles of ecologically conscious architecture. Nowadays I continue my research by design within the application of so called solar envelope in urban scale with my students.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><br />

On the one hand, they live up to certain common scientific and methodological criteria - originality and transparency - on the other hand they have different practices, using different methods. Research is ‘coloured’ by traditions and professions, and research in architecture should be coloured too, taking in consideration that the practise of architects stretch from natural science and sociology to art, and because the most important way in which the architect achieves new cognition is through the work with form and space – drawings, models and completed works. Probably all good design is informed by some kind of research – <i>research based design</i>. But can research arise from design? </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><br />

Em 1987 fez o "Master of Science in Architecture and Building Design”, na Universidade de Columbia, em Nova Iorque. Trabalhou com Peter Eisenman, em Nova Iorque, de 1987 a 1991 e com Daniel Libeskind, em Berlim, em 1991, entre outros. Tem ensinado em diversas Escolas de Arquitectura, foi Director do DA/UAL, Departamento de Arquitectura da Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa de 2004 a 2007 e exerce actualmente a docência no DA/UAL, Projecto III e VI, na FA/UTL Projecto V e ESARC-UIC (Barcelona) em Proyectos II. É desde 1997 orientador individual de Projecto Final (6ºano) na ESAP.<br />
Em 1991 fundou a ARX Portugal Arquitectos, com José Mateus. Proferiu e participou em inúmeras conferências sobre o trabalho da ARX Portugal em diversos países.Foi convidado, em Portugal, para diversos juris de concursos nacionais e internacionais.<br />
O trabalho da ARX tem obtido diversas distinções e prémios dos quais de podem salientar o “International Architecture Awards“, The Chicago Athenaeum, EUA, 2006 (Biblioteca Municipal de Ílhavo), "Prémio AICA", Associação Internacional dos Críticos de Arte / Ministério da Cultura 2003, Nomeação para o "Prémio Secil 2002", nomeação para o "Prémio Mies Van Der Rohe 2002" e "XXI Encontro Internacional do UIA", Berlim, Alemanha, 2002 (Museu Marítimo de ílhavo). Para além de inúmeros artigos em jornais e revistas generalistas ou especializadas, foram já publicadas 3 monografias sobre o trabalho da ARX: "Uma Segunda Natureza" (Blau) e "Realidade Real" (CCB) em 1993 e "Museu Marítimo de Ílhavo" (Caleidoscópio), em 2004. O trabalho da ARX foi objecto de uma Exposição Monográfica, "Realidade Real" que inaugurou o Centro de Exposições do Centro Cultural de Belém (CCB) em Junho de 1993. Desde então tem integrado exposições colectivas ou monográficas, um pouco por todo o mundo. Em 2007 foi emitido um selo pelos CTT-Correios de Portugal com o Museu Márítimo de Ílhavo, integrado na colecção de Arquitectura Contemporânea Portuguesa.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; line-height: 115%; text-align: justify;"><br />

Each project evolves on a variable sort of small scale constructions, possibilities and tests, sometimes wanderings of unpredictable outcome. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">It is literally a permanent under-construction process.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">The model is always taken as a kind of anticipation (project: the future is now) , a construction in itself, and like every construction it is built with a determined material, on a particular scale and is subject to gravity (it has weight). It is always anchored or conceptually floating from the ground, but in any case depending on it. It has to structure itself.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">Many different kinds of models, with different aims and purposes are being built on a particular project. The number can vary from project to project, easily reaching a third digit on large scale commissions. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">Not every project is subject to the same modelling sequence, at the same scale, or of similar notional qualities. In any case, like in Geology, there is a condition of accumulation and sedimentation.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">Usually we find a site model in the beginning of each project. It is always a selected and filtered reality. The first project decisions (extension, abstraction, way of building it, hierarchy) have been taken. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">On medium size commissions of particular buildings, models of the programmatic components are made at the context scale, and placed upon it, not only as a measuring device, but experimenting inner relationships, adjusting programme to place or taking the first steps towards meaning.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">Several different types will follow, such as searching for a conceptual strategy or checking on a particular aspect of the building (space, light, materiality, etc). </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">Some models are of apparent no use, or cathartic. They keep the process in motion, and leave doupt open. Sequences are often made, either comparative on a parallel manner or evolving on a progressive mode. It is an insisting process, that learns with itself and reintroduces its findings in the process, as a self-feeding chain.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="color: #cccccc; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Klavika Lt"; font-size: small;">The presentation will be composed on two parts: one as a kind of model taxonomy or quasi-scientific analysis of the mental drawing , based on the broader work of ARX, and in a second part it will focus on two particular (and different) projects, as tentative demonstrative samples of the analysed method.</span></div></div>Joao Menezes de Sequeirahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00471511384253151854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156409152438554679.post-26081144585385703412011-03-08T16:55:00.001+00:002011-03-20T16:26:51.871+00:001ª Conferencia sobre Arquitectura e Investigação<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">Falar de Arquitectura & Investigação não significa nada e significa tudo, daí a necessidade de estabelecer um ciclo de conferências, no qual em cada uma se abordam campos específicos. Daí a necessidade do subtítulo das Conferências que separa aquilo que designamos por Investigação <b>em</b> Arquitectura da Investigação <b>sobre </b>Arquitectura. Esta diferenciação prende-se com uma característica já mencionada no mais antigo texto de Arquitectura, no qual se pode ler:</span></span></div><div></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><br />

Ele nasce pela (com a) fábrica e pelo (com o) raciocínio. A fábrica é a preparação continuamente exercitada pela experiência, e esta é aperfeiçoada pelo trabalho manual que partindo da matéria, qualquer que seja o seu género, a conforma com um determinado propósito. O raciocínio é o poder de demonstrar e de explicar, o que foi fabricado com a razão da proporção. </span></i></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: black; line-height: 150%;">Vitruvio, De Architectura.

O significado é a coisa proposta, da qual se fala; enquanto o que significa, é a explicação doutrinal demonstrada pela razão. Assim aquele que quer ser reconhecido como arquitecto deve ser exercitado em cada uma daquelas partes. É por isso que, é necessário que seja dotado (de engenho) e disposto a aprender as razões da disciplina; com efeito dons sem conhecimentos ou conhecimentos sem dons não podem fazer um artífice perfeito.

</div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">Por isso a forma da investigação arquitectónica pode assumir-se de acordo com qualquer dos dois meios inerentes à Arquitectura, a coisa em si, o que é significado, a coisa proposta (o projecto) através da sua representação imagética (bidimensional ou tridimensional), mas também pode apresentar-se com a forma de uma explicação e demonstração usando para tal a representação linguística.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">Mas, se a forma como a investigação se manifesta pode ser dupla, isto é, se a investigação arquitectónica se pode manifestar através do meio imagético e do meio linguístico, o que dizer da sua substância. Pois como Vitruvio nos diz “o </span><span style="color: black; line-height: 150%;">saber do arquitecto é ornado de muitas disciplinas e vários conhecimentos”</span><span style="color: black; font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">, citando depois um conjunto de disciplinas como as letras, o desenho, a geometria, a óptica, a aritmética, as histórias, a filosofia, a medicina, a música, as leis, a astrologia, etc. Variação e multiplicidade que coloca a arquitectura numa situação de heterogeneidade estrutural.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">Tal como o problema da forma coloca problemas de interpretação à investigação, o problema da heterogeneidade da sua substância coloca dois problemas, o da sua legibilidade e o da sua definição disciplinar. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36pt; text-align: left; text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">a)<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">A primeira porque a investigação pode ser sobre o espaço, mas se for sobre o espaço, pode ainda oferecer mais aspectos, o da percepção, da neurologia, da filosofia, etc. Também pode ser sobre o habitat, sobre o uso das ferramentas informáticas para a concepção arquitectónica, ou sobre o estudo dos conceitos operativos que estão na base da concepção arquitectónica, etc. Mas o problema não é tanto a indefinição dada pela heterogeneidade do objecto, mas mais sobre a impossibilidade de lhe encontrar um qualquer limite temático, pois em última instância o objecto arquitectónico pode ser investigado de infinitos pontos de vista.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; margin-left: 36pt; text-align: left; text-indent: -18pt;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">b)<span style="font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><span style="font-style: normal; line-height: 150%;">A segunda porque aquela heterogeneidade implica uma multidisciplinaridade ou melhor uma interdisciplinaridade. Assim, não se exclui da investigação arquitectónica a ideia de que pode haver uma filosofia da arquitectura, uma sociologia da arquitectura, uma antropologia da arquitectura, tal como uma matemática, uma física, etc. Mas neste caso a disciplina mais definida, nos seus métodos e objectivos não é a arquitectura, mas aquela que com ela procura comunicar. Isto é, neste caso a pergunta sobre o que são relações interdisciplinares quando uma delas não apresenta essas delimitações, torna-se pertinente.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div class="MsoBodyText3" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; line-height: 150%; text-align: left;"><br />

Isto deve-se em parte ao facto de a coordenação de um projecto envolver questões tão díspares como entender as soluções estruturais, compreender as características de um material, satisfazer o programa do cliente, controlar custos e prever o impacte do espaço nos ocupantes e no local. Apesar da sua preparação académica contemplar esta pluridisciplinaridade, há muito conhecimento que vai sendo criado e que obriga o arquitecto a uma constante actualização: questões sociais e económicas que mudam, internacionalização dos projectos, novas prioridades mundiais. A questão ambiental surge em 1972 com a crise energética, mais tarde em 1989 surge a questão do desenvolvimento sustentável, e em 1997 surge a questão das alterações climáticas. Estas questões tornaram-se prementes e a sociedade no seu todo é chamada para prevenir aquilo que se denuncia como um desenvolvimento insustentável a nível global. </span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Os arquitectos com a sua quota-parte de responsabilidade numa indústria altamente poluente como é a da construção são também eles alertados e informados da necessidade do seu papel proactivo.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">A investigação e construção sustentável são temas de investigação recente em Portugal sendo que os primeiros passos foram dados há 20 anos com alguns estudos sobre arquitectura bioclimática sendo que hoje o tema de construção sustentável tornou-se campo de formação e investigação de engenheiros de ambiente, engenheiros mecânicos e muitos outros.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;"> O desafio que se coloca actualmente ao Arquitecto é investigar e repensar o seu projecto segundo parâmetros de sustentabilidade local com consequências globais. </span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">A arquitectura sustentável abrange conceitos ambientais, sociais e económicos, gerando uma particular necessidade de criar uma network de conhecimento para auxiliar as tomadas de decisão do arquitecto. </span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Essa constatação é uma das conclusões de um projecto que foi parte de uma investigação em Arquitectura Sustentável. O projecto consistia na recuperação de uma casa vernácula numa aldeia da região do Minho, mais precisamente inserida no único parque nacional em Portugal - O Parque Nacional da Peneda-Gerês (PNPG). A hipótese colocada era se a recuperação numa área protegida deveria ser mais sensível ao ambiente natural envolvente e em que medida se articulava com os constrangimentos específicos de um projecto de recuperação. Assim o projecto foi definido com o objectivo de responder aos requisitos do sistema de certificação LiderA. O projecto foi elaborado e sujeito a duas entidades: o PNPG e a Câmara Municipal de Melgaço (CMM).</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;"> As soluções de tecnologias solares passivas que implicavam alterações de cércea não tiveram aprovação camarária dado que implicavam alterações significativas da fachada do conjunto arquitectónico. O projecto foi por isso alterado. Na fase de construção o projecto foi sofrendo outras alterações significativas porque a fase de demolição parcial do edifício existente permitiu constatar o grau de reutilização de materiais, que foi muito elevado. A fase de construção requereu alguns ajustes no projecto por se terem constatado tardiamente graus elevados de radão no edifício. A escolha dos materiais ecológicos teve em conta a distância dos fornecedores apesar de algumas concessões terem sido feitas para sensibilizar o mercado para materiais mais sustentáveis. A aplicação de alguns materiais inovadores exigiu ainda o acompanhamento junto do empreiteiro e a educação dos operários. Por fim o edifício foi monitorizado na sua ocupação em termos de qualidade do ar, conforto térmico, consumo de biomassa e consumo de água. Apesar de obtida a certificação LiderA classe A+, constatou-se a não aplicabilidade de certos requisitos do sistema a certos aspectos da construção e prioridades do local, e como tal foi elaborado um sistema mais adequado.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Este sistema chamado de CAAAP estaria mais adaptado à certificação ambiental da arquitectura vernácula em áreas protegidas.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">O processo de investigação permitiu ainda levantar em paralelo outras questões, desde o custo da construção sustentável até à necessidade de ferramentas e bases de dados que permitam uma maior eficácia na elaboração de projectos sustentáveis, passando pela questão do incentivo à reabilitação e preservação da arquitectura vernácula e não esquecendo o incentivo à indústria nacional para produzir materiais sustentáveis.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Palavras-chave:</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Interdisciplinaridade, reabilitação, arquitectura sustentável, custo, ferramentas, arquitectura vernácula</span></i></span></div>Joao Menezes de Sequeirahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00471511384253151854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156409152438554679.post-39760340272103367652010-10-28T11:29:00.004+01:002010-10-29T22:38:55.737+01:00Arq.

Este livro marcou decisivamente a teoria e prática dos anos vindouros, restituindo à arquitectura uma necessária autonomia disciplinar. Fruto de prévias investigações académicas, introduziu ainda conceitos que fizeram escola. Mas estas ideias seriam contraditas, mais tarde, pelo seu autor. Em 1981, a Autobiografia científica de Rossi propõe “esquecer a arquitectura.” A apresentação pretende discutir os termos desta tese e antítese – ceci tuera cela – à luz do que é hoje investigação em arquitectura.</span></i></span></div></div>Joao Menezes de Sequeirahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00471511384253151854noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156409152438554679.post-79363914107151649642010-10-28T11:27:00.007+01:002010-10-29T22:38:55.742+01:00Arq.

Porque é a Universidade que, através da formação que fornece e do tipo de investigação que, por seu intermédio, se vê consagrada em todos os domínios, disponibiliza um saber especifico, o único aliás, que se vê sempre legitimado em todos graus do ensino e que, portanto, é universalmente aceite.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Mas estará a Universidade, como instituição, habilitada ainda para gerir todo o processo de geração desse conhecimento?

<span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">A problemática da investigação sobre arquitectura tem sido largamente explorada nos últimos anos. No entanto, arquitectos considerados ‘práticos’ publicaram trabalhos de investigação sobre arquitectura, basta lembrarmo-nos do Delirious New York de Rem Koolhaas. Igualmente, outros arquitectos exploraram uma ligação entre a teoria e a prática, como Peter e Alison Smithson, Peter Eisenman, Aldo Rossi ou Greg Lynn, para nomear um grupo diverso.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Recentemente, Anthony Vidler propôs argumento que o desenvolvimento do Movimento Moderno está ligado ao trabalho de historiadores como Nikolaus Pevsner e Sigfried Giedion.</span></i></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Com tantos exemplos onde é evidente a útil interacção entre a investigação e a prática arquitectónicas, assistimos ao cepticismo crescente do meio arquitectónico em relação à investigação em teoria e em história.

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">A premissa que gera esta conferência pode ser traiçoeira, principalmente para os arquitectos que se dedicam à investigação em arquitectura. A proposição “sobre” identifica uma certa exterioridade face ao objecto, tida, num contexto de investigação, como algo menos positivo. Porém, sejam aproximações históricas, teóricas ou de outras áreas disciplinares em que a Arquitectura e o território surjam como objectos, parece-nos uma mais valia que investigadores com formação em arquitectura a elas se dediquem. A nossa proposta visa a apresentação de dois casos portugueses, activos durante o século XX, e que, de modo distinto, contribuíram para o conhecimento da disciplina de onde partem e de onde se propõem nunca sair: a arquitectura. Defendemos, nestes dois casos, identificar investigações que sendo “sobre” acontecem, em absoluto, “dentro”.</span></i></span></div></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="line-height: 115%;">Em Portugal, a escassez e o surgimento tardio das reflexões arquitectónicas consolidadas diminui a diversidade de propostas e de trabalhos merecedores de atenção. Os dois autores escolhidos – Raul Lino e Nuno Portas – são suficientemente diferentes e profícuos para motivarem uma discussão sobre processos e resultados de investigações arquitectónicas relevantes. Assim sendo, propomos uma reflexão sobre o discurso de Raul Lino (1879-1974) ao redor do habitar português e das investigações sobre habitação realizadas por Nuno Portas (n. 1934). Procuramos construir um mapa destas duas posições, metodologicamente tão distintas, face às preocupações que ambos partilham com a arquitectura doméstica e com a sua múltipla mas necessária adequação.</span></i></span></div>Joao Menezes de Sequeirahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00471511384253151854noreply@blogger.com0
