Entry requirements |
The Curricular Unit has no entry requirements, however it assumes that students successfully attended the Architectural Design curriculum programs of the previous years.
|
|
Learning outcomes |
- Understand and resolve the architectural structure/form - for buildings, or sets of buildings, with different uses - as a result of multiple demands (urban, functional, aesthetic, symbolic, productive, climatic, communicational, etc.).
- Research and experiment typologies and morphologies of collective housing buildings in Tower, Block and Row, with and without access gallery, in different footprint contexts (corner, top, isolated, etc.).
- Combine all the constraints present in the design process (legislative, constructive, structural, etc.).
- Interpret and adopt a regulatory framework of architectural and urban planning constraints:
a) General Regulations for Urban Buildings;
b) Accessibility;
c) Construction solutions for "Buildings with almost zero energy needs";
d) Fire safety.
- Design a project for a real urban context, involving several fundamental architectural principles.

Syllabus |
- Research and experimental approaches to reflection on the challenges of collective housing and the problems of multifamily buildings with controlled costs.
- Experimenting multiple possibilities of programs for residential buildings, cell associations and distributions by typologies.
- Understanding the relationship between architectural typological options and urban morphologies, extending this exercise to the relationships between building and street, between courtyard and sidewalk, between public and private, between housing and commerce, among others.
- Development of the project at different scales, valuing critical thinking, the students' ability to choose, rigorous action, conception and formal consistency in the act of designing, at the same time as valuing the structuring "idea".
- Understanding architecture as an experimental activity, the project is promoted as a work of synthesis, integrating various factors - place, program, form, scale, language, etc.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
Pedagogy will focus on three interrelated components:
- theoretical classes on themes and contents of the program, and framing of the different phases of the practical project exercises;
- practical project exercises defined in the curriculum program and in the statements for the semester, with stages of increasing level of complexity, according to the predefined objectives;
- critical monitoring classes of the different phases of practical project exercises - presentation and critical discussion in class and tutorial follow-up.
Evaluation:
- continuous evaluation with communication of qualitative notes assigned at the end of each phase of the project and after discussion and delivery of the works;
- at the end of the semester it is made the evaluation of all the work produced, which will have a final classification measured with equity in the universe of students who developed this program.
