The thesis studies the apartment block at 25b rue Franklin in Paris designed in 1903 by the architect Auguste Perret. It documents the building's history and discusses its design in the context of late-nineteenth-century theoretical debate on housing and architecture. The first part of the study examines the context. It includes an analysis of the ·various constraints that Perret faced at rue Franklin in an attempt to establish clearly the extent of their influence on the design of the building. ~ext a typological survey of the apartment block in nineteenth-century Paris brings out those aspects of the building type considered problematical by the architects of the period. The second part of the study discusses the theoretical issue of rationalism. It first distinguishes the different brands of rationalist theories in France at the end of the nineteenth century. An examination of the 25b shows the mark left by the writings of Eugene Viollet-le-Duc on Perret's rationalist conceptions of architecture. It also illustrates the link established between industry and rationalism at rue Franklin. The third section of the thesis addresses the organic theory of architecture in its relation to the 25b rue Franklin. Contrary to the conventional view, the discussion demonstrates that the design of 25b rue Franklin entailed aims which went beyond a strict response to legal or site constraints or the faithful expression of structure. Perret at rue Franklin attempted to root his architecture in society, nature, and history. This "organicism" was again largely indebted to the insights of Viollet-le-Duc. It also reflected Perret's firm conviction that reinforced concrete itself was an "organic" material which summarized and surpassed all previous materials. With such notions in mind, Perret endeavored to achieve a synthesis of what were considered the two great architectural traditions of the Western world: Gothic and Greek.

Full textLe contexte d'une œuvre rassemble l'ensemble des conditions matérielles, sociocognitives et culturelles qui contribuent à sa signification. Cependant l'interprétation d'un contexte est souvent faite de manière équivoque tant les sources du sens sont multiples et variées pour l'architecture.
Un examen rapide de l'évolution de la culture architecturale dans le courant du 20e siècle permet de situer la grande popularité de la question du contexte dans la seconde moitié de ce siècle. L'importance du contexte y apparaissait comme une force effective pour endiguer la crise du sens que connaissait l'architecture. Une sensibilité commune émergea au sein de trois courants architecturaux – appelés dans cette étude la Team 10, les Italiens et les Américains. Tous fondaient leurs interprétations sur l'idée que les conditions matérielles et historiques d'une situation donnée participent à la signification que prend l'œuvre architecturale chez ses habitants. Ils en déduisirent une série de notions originales qui constituent l'objet de cette étude.
Au moment du repli théorique amorcé au moment du postmodernisme, ces interprétations furent formalisées au sein de trois doctrines :le structuralisme, le rationalisme et le contextualisme. Dans ce cadre doctrinal, à chaque situation donnée pouvaient correspondre plusieurs contextes élaborés a priori et conditionnant sans détour l'œuvre architecturale qui y prenait place. Ainsi, alors que la signification d'un contexte est liée à sa spécificité, ces interprétations formalisées encourageaient la reproduction de stratégies d'interventions architecturales abstraites de toute contingence.
La critique du postmodernisme expliqua ces pratiques caricaturales par l'oubli du rôle actif des auteurs architectes dans le travail d'interprétation du contexte d'une œuvre. Un contexte ne doit pas être interprété seulement en tant que réalité habitée – trouvant son sens chez les habitants de l'œuvre – mais aussi en tant que réalité projetée. – trouvant son sens dans la conception de l'œuvre.
La première hypothèse de cette recherche avance qu'au sein des trois courants à l'origine des doctrines du structuralisme, du rationalisme et du contextualisme s'exprimait consciemment cette différence entre réalité habitée et réalité projetée. Si les formalisations doctrinales écartèrent l'importance de l'engagement créatif des architectes dans l'interprétation d'un contexte n'avait pas été oubliée chez les principaux auteurs de ces trois courants. La seconde hypothèse de cette recherche avance que l'interprétation d'un contexte en tant que réalité projetée est nécessaire pour renouveler le sens de l'œuvre qui y est associée. Par l'engagement de l'auteur architecte, peut naître une relation spécifique entre l'œuvre architecturale et son contexte, spécificité garante de la signification.
Ces deux hypothèses s'appuient sur deux développements. D'abord un double inventaire des principales notions relatives à la compréhension du contexte de l'œuvre architecturale en tant que réalité habitée et en tant que réalité projetée. Ces inventaires sont illustrés par quelques projets exemplaires traduisant l'impact de ces interprétations sur l'architecture construite. Ensuite par une réflexion théorique plus générale développant la relation possible entre la connaissance architecturale et l'œuvre au sein d'une réalité projetée. A la suite de ce second développement de nature épistémologique, nous avançons que par la nature intermédiaire que prennent les connaissances dans le cadre d'une réalité projetée, il s'instaure une relation de réciprocité – et non pas d'autorité - entre le théorique et le pratique.

Full textIs it still possible to inhabitate and live the laid out and constructed space in particular, as for considering the techno and industrial flood that determines and influences the field of modern architecture? Rationalism and functionalism of a given trend of modern architecture by incorporating techno and industrial progress in the world of home, seems to condemn the experience of living in an irreversible crisis. The architectural activity wanting to meet scientific and techno-industrial progress, it requires practical experience in home and prescientific places of life, of living standards arising from the only reason. It is a general an architecture and a modern, abstract and functionalist urbanism that develop along the path of rational objectivity initiated by Galileo and Descartes, they control , manage and aestheticize the whole world and all human experience to space by stripping poetic , mythological and emotional considerations. Thus, the construction of human institutions housing becomes in identifying the crisis of living a «prosaic and technological process deriving directly from the mathematical reason, a functional diagram, or a rule of formal suits «in drawback of the concrete experience of living. But if the architecture does not matter to itself, if it is not a practice that is an end in itself because it opens to another, how can we still philosophically hope to authentically, originally and poetically live the world and the space of the house in particular? Philosophy, by phenomenological and hermeneutic approach inheritated from Gaston Bachelard and Merleau-Ponty presents to the modern experience of living, original significant ways that respond to the crisis it faces. Renewing differently more than the only purely rational knowledge the relations of man to the space, it presents itself as a remarkable way of re- understanding, rereading and re-enchantment of the original experience of inhabitating the world , the city and the space of the house

Full textThe topic is focused on a main period of the history of art and French post-war design but which is though largely unknown. During this period of growth also called « Trente Glorieuses », a line of eleven young French designers impose their self in the landscape of the model’s creation. This generation tries hard to promote the design from the end of the Second World War by basing on the social functionalism’s doctrine which is defended before by Francis Jourdain, father of the French serial furniture and member of the UAM, and then by his disciples René Gabriel and Marcel Gascoin. Their communal training in the best schools or in the design offices of their eldests, the similarity of their careers and the existence of personal affinities may allow us to claim the possibility of a generational phenomenon never identified in itself yet. Together or separately, this designers desire to defend the French rationalism and a production without any artifice, but above all the collaboration of the creator and the manufacturer for relevant forms and the proclamation of the beauty in the utility. Moreover, it is with them that appears the designer status who has to conceive furniture and interior organisations of quality and which is functional and reachable for everyone. This pioneer generation, relegated at the middle ground of the design history, deserves to have their place in the genesis of a profession and a discipline from which we still learn lessons

Full textIn France, from the middle of the 19th to the middle of the 20th century, a series of writings repeatedly proclaim the objective of founding a “science of architectural aesthetics”. As aesthetics is gradually becoming a separate discipline, architects, starting from César Daly to André Lurçat, are searching in this new field for the theoretical underpinnings of a knowledge that would aim at the rationalization of the effects of architecture on man. The source of their theoretical models switches from philosophy to experimental science. Psychology, physiology, sociology are brought together to build a knowledge of man as the addressee of architecture, a subject for whose reactions theoretical patterns can be found. The evolution of this knowledge has helped form a conception of architecture as a “language” and a way of considering the human body as the standard of architecture. This thinking has also led to the definition of methods of formal analysis applied to buildings

This research involves creating a system that provides parents with tools and information to help children learn from television. Children who converse with their parents during television viewing are better able to evaluate and make sense of content. However, children might learn more if they are encouraged to go from simply understanding content to generating questions and problem solving strategies. To do this, we need to deliver teaching and learning strategies to parents so they can initiate dialogues with their children around television. This research describes a system, called the Parent Trap, which sends messages to parents about the television shows that their children watch. The information in the messages tries to model dialogues that promote more frequent and longer conversations, which include inquiry and explanation. These conversations might facilitate additional learning from television and encourage further discourse between parents and children around other programs and activities. In the thesis, I suggest ways that television shows can be augmented with additional, digital information to help parents learn strategies for conversing with their children. I also present preliminary evaluations to show that developing these strategies may help television producers change the ways that they think about the educational value of their content.

Full textThis thesis puts forward a monographic approach to the career of Peter Guariche, designer-creator of French interior designer assemblies. The "Glorious thirty" represent a decisive turning point for this professional because they coincide with the beginning of industrialization in the furniture sector. The historical and political context explains his involveruent in the creation of full programs of articles intended to furnish standardized Reconstruction housing. He realizes that the mass production furniture, produced by industrial processes and at reasonable prices, can solve the effects of the failure of the policy of the French state, To adjust his "modem" furniture in the plan-type, it is inspired by the production of Arnerican designers and creates innovative standardized and rational objects on a technical and aesthetical level. ln 1954, he solicits Michel Mortier and Joseph-André Motte and creates with them L'Atelier de Recherches Plastiques. They understand that ail three young designers must unite around a common project: promoting their mass production furniture with manufacturers. Thereafter. each of them takes their independence and takes back their respective work. The ncw professional guidance of Pierre Guariche offers him the opportunity to collaborate on original interior architectural programs. stemming from the land use policy. This thesis deals with the social, political and economic contexts in which he practices, but also the facts and actors. which open up future areas to explore in the history of French design

Full textThis work followed three research orientations: a study of the biography of Gustave Serrurier (Liège, 1858 - Liège, 1910) and of his socio-political and cultural environment, a study of its writings (publications and manuscripts) and its personal library, a thinking about some of its major works (architectur, decoration and furniture). The analysis and the crossing of the biographical facts, the writings and works made it possible to renew the vision which one had of the artist like that of the theoretical bases of his work. Thus they clarify the combined action of three theoretical forces in creations of this architect-designer : its moral vision of an intimist and simple way of life in a more egalitarian world, its constructive rationalism inspired by his mentor guide Viollet-le-Duc, his attachment to expres! sion symbolic system. From this analysis also another face of Gustave Serrurier is revealed. He was not only the designer whom one knows but a philosophical man and an impassioned militant who explodes within the narrow limits inside which one generally studies him, i. E. Those of the art nouveau. He raised actual questions about the role of art in life and about the optimum conditions for everyone’s everyday life. He really sought to put his life and his work in coherence with his conclusions. In spite of his modest position as a factor of pieces of furniture and interior architect, he seems an actual thinker who influenced the future

Full textLa deuxième partie entre dans le vif du sujet des valeurs en aménagement-urbanisme, en clarifiant la problématique, en fournissant les définitions nécessaires ainsi que les différents courants de l'aménagement-urbanisme pour montrer la plurivocité des termes utilisés. Au-delà de la terminologie, ces courants reposent sur des fondements idéologiques différents et la situation actuelle apparaît comme un mixte entre ces différents courants et des pratiques qui ne réfèrent à aucun d'entre eux. Un certain pragmatisme ne permet plus au concepteur et/ou au décideur de mouler son projet dans l'idéologie contenue dans les textes d'un théoricien ou dans un courant, quels qu'ils soient. Etre aménageur-urbaniste, c'est être l'utilisateur d'un certain nombre de pratiques, de savoir-faire et de connaissances, mais aussi le vecteur de croyances, plus ou moins fondées, plus ou moins vraies mais absolument nécessaires pour travailler l'espace, concevoir un projet, répondre à une commande. Cet ensemble de croyances qui incluent des valeurs amène la question d'un éventuel déterminisme des valeurs chez l'aménageur-urbaniste, déterminisme non absolu.
Avant d'analyser certaines d'entre elles, il est nécessaire de faire un détour concernant l'apparition des valeurs, non en tant que telles, mais en tant que question : qu'est-ce qui fait que, actuellement, les valeurs, qui ont toujours existé, posent question ? La disparition progressive ou la relativisation du paradigme rationaliste, exposé en général et dans ses applications à l'aménagement-urbanisme, fournit un élément d'explication de l'apparition de nouvelles formes de pratiques qui mettent en avant d'autres valeurs que celles qui tournent autour des notions de rationalité, de déduction, de cohérence. Ainsi, une double approche théorique et historique de l'aménagement-urbanisme, comme pratique identifiable dans l'histoire et comme mise en œuvre d'un paradigme puis des conséquences de la relativisation de celui-ci, est menée.
Les valeurs qui nous paraissent les plus mobilisées dans la pratique de l'aménageur-urbaniste fonctionnent comme des couples fin-moyen : l'équité comme mise en œuvre sur le plan spatial, par la transformation de l'espace, de la justice sociale forme, avec celle-ci, le premier couple. Le second est celui composé de la mixité et de la solidarité. La première permet-elle la seconde ? De quelle manière ? La référence à la loi relative à la Solidarité et au Renouvellement Urbains est évidente et inévitable. Le troisième couple lie cohérence spatiale et cohésion sociale. Quelles sont les relations entre ces deux notions ? Laquelle détermine l'autre ? Enfin, une valeur permet de donner une certaine cohérence à ces trois couples dont les contradictions internes sont mises en évidence. Il s'agit de l'intérêt général. On peut, lui aussi, l'analyser dans un couple, non de type fin/moyen, mais d'opposition entre intérêt particulier et intérêt général. Cependant, il sera plutôt analysé en termes de mise en cohérence, éventuellement arbitraire, entre les couples précédents.

Full textThe poetry of João Cabral de Melo Neto suffers from a lack of definition of place. Therefore, this study seeks to specify the social place occupied by the lyric self in the authors work and, from this, define his aesthetic plan, guided by the contrasting of popular forms and their opposite the most sophisticated art forms of his time, representing rationality instead of tradition. The two faces of his poetry, which for so long time were understood as two independent branches of his poetics, are seen as definitions that articulate dependently. The common vertex originates in the poets awareness of Brazils condition as an underdeveloped country. Cabral first attempts to incorporate popular culture, seeking to reduce the gap between the countrys social classes. Then he includes in the poem the forms of modernization through which the country was being transformed, trying to make the poem a gesture of rigorous intervention on the local material. Rationality, therefore, is presented in his poetry as a new alternative to underdevelopment.

Full textFrom the perspective of philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, there is no reality that exists in itself, no raw fact, no absolute reality: everything that we define as reality is, in fact, only the result of interpretation processes that are unique to us. Mo-reover, the data stored in information systems is often nothing more than the coded representation of statements made by human beings, thereby inherently involving human interpretation and consequently being affected by the same biases and limitations that characterize the human psyche. This thesis introduces a new conceptual framework, the "Data binding and reification" (DBR) model, that describes the process of data interpretation, and then the reification of information, using a new approach that places human-perception mechanisms at the heart of this process. By mobilizing cognitive and beha-vioral sciences, this approach allows us to identify to what extent human intervention and the structure of the environment to which one is subjected condition the emergence of cognitive biases affecting these processes. Experimental results partially validate this model by identifying the characteristics of the environment that affect, in an organizational context, the data-collection process and the quality of the information produced. This work opens up numerous perspectives, such as the development of a choice architecture in the sense of the economist Richard Thaler, which could improve the very process of data collection by modifying the experience of users of the information system

Full textA presente Dissertação procurou investigar e refletir sobre a noção de Racionalismo e seus métodos na Arquitetura a partir das conceções teóricas de Josep Maria Montaner e conceções mais técnicas de Kenneth Frampton, e tendo como casos de estudo a obra de Le Corbusier e Oscar Niemeyer. Métodos como o módulo, o protótipo ou a setorização foram importantes para clarificar a importância da noção de “Racionalismo” especifico neste caso um programa de hotel, tendo como fim a concretização e a validação do referido conceito no domínio da organização funcional de um projeto e da sua forma. Com base no projeto do Hotel das Camélias, como exemplo, elaborou-se uma reflexão, autocrítica, inter-relação e justificação segundo a investigação feita acerca da noção de Racionalismo no desenho e na forma. Este projeto tomado como exemplo procura tentar entender os processos que levaram às diferentes fases do mesmo, quer no posicionamento perante a cidade e quer em que medida o conceito de Racionalismo está incutido na determinação da forma deste projeto. A presente dissertação atesta o entendimento que a base dos métodos e ideais Racionalistas, na sua máxima expressão, permitem que o controlo da planta possa ser explícito em alçado e na definição da forma, todos aliados ao conceito inicial, não vedando o resultado final à forma seguir a função, mas permitindo também à forma ser o resultado de um conceito apoiado nesses mesmos métodos para atingir um “objeto” singular.
The present dissertation sought to investigate and reflect on the notion of Rationalism and its methods in Architecture from the theoretical conceptions of Josep Maria Montaner and more technical conceptions of Kenneth Frampton, and having as a case study the work of Le Corbusier and Oscar Niemeyer. Methods such as the module, the prototype or the sectorization were important to clarify the importance of the notion of “Rationalism” specific in this case a hotel program, aiming at the concretization and validation of the referred concept in the domain of the functional organization of a project and its form. Based on the Hotel das Camélias project, as an example, a reflection, self-criticism, interrelationship and justification was elaborated according to the research carried out on the notion of Rationalism in design and form. This project taken as an example seeks to try to understand the processes that led to the different phases of the same, both in positioning in towards the city and to what extent the concept of Rationalism is inculcated in determining the shape of this project. The present dissertation attests to the understanding that the basis of Rationalist methods and ideals, in their maximum expression, allow the control of the plant to be explicit in elevation and in the definition of form, all allied to the initial concept, not forbidding the final result to form follow the function, but also allowing the shape to be the result of a concept supported by these same methods to reach a singular “object”

Full textThis thesis is a contribution to the general theory of design thinking. In the prevalent demand for a sustainable development, the main objective of this research is the construction of a theoretical model of design thinking that contextualizes standard sustainability evaluation tools. The basis of these normative tools is analyzed in four dimensions: ontological, methodological, epistemological and teleological. Indications of potential counter-productive effects of these norms for design thinking confirm the need for a theory of qualitative judgment. Our central hypothesis revolves around the benefits of the underlying conceptual framework of the ‘precautionary principle’ for design thinking, the first formulations of which goes back to the early seventies in Germany, and was in fact created as a way to address the failures of traditional scientific evaluation tools or methods. The thesis comprises five parts. Beginning with a historical perspective, a review of classical models of design thinking, specifically focuses on the evolving approaches for addressing sustainable development. Theories of “green design” coming from the early sixties, theories of ecological design of the seventies and eighties are finally converging on the developing theories of “sustainable design” formulated in the early nineties. The underlying theories of the precautionary principle are then reviewed and explored for the specific context of design within the perspective of sustainability. Current methods of standard risk assessment methods are compared to a precautionary approach, revealing their conceptual limits for design thinking. A preliminary theoretical model for design thinking is then constructed adopting the theories underlying the precautionary principle. This model represents a global vision for judging the design project in a context of sustainability, rather than on traditional approaches for risk assessment, which are purposive and instrumental. The precautionary principle is further explored for the specific context of architectural design. This exploration begins with a historical perspective of the classical notion of ‘prudence’ for guiding architectural judgment. In light of the contemporary issues related to sustainability, we then examine the challenges of judging architectural projects given the increasing international prominence of such standard evaluation methods (i.e. Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, LEED). The thesis proposes a reinterpretation of design thinking as proposed by Donald A. Schön is introduced such that the use of tools, like LEED can be contextualized. This exercise reveals an epistemological barrier, which shall be taken into consideration when reformulating the theoretical model. In accordance with a constructivist epistemology, a new theoretical model is therefore confronted to the study and illustration of three contemporary Canadian architectural competitions adopting the standard evaluation method LEED. A preliminary set of ‘tensions’ identified in the judgment process and design thinking is further categorized into their conceptual counterparts. These are: (1) analogical/logical conceptualization; (2) epistemological/methodological uncertainty; (3) interpretive/analytic comparability; and (4) universal/contextual relevance of the proposal. These conceptual tensions are considered as vectors that come into correlation with the theoretical model, enriching it, yet without validating it, in the positivist sense of the word. These confrontations with the real, help better define the epistemological barrier identified above. This thesis therefore highlights the often underestimated impact of environmental standards on the judgment process and design thinking, with particular, albeit non restrictive, reference to contemporary Canadian architectural competitions for public buildings. It concludes by stressing the need for a new form of “reflective prudence” in design thinking along with a more critical use of current evaluation tools for sustainability founded on a global integration rather than on the opposition of environmental approaches.

Full textConstruction projects are temporary endeavors with a defined beginning and end, conducted by a temporary and multi-disciplinary team called a Temporary Multi-Organization (TMO). In the hostile environment of post-disaster reconstruction, participants of the TMO must confront high levels of uncertainty which increases project risks. The non-acceptability of project outcomes is one of the most frequent risks reported in literature (UNDRO, 1982; Barenstein, 2008; Dikmen, 2006). Acceptability is related with users’ satisfaction. However, according to the theory of bounded rationality, actors of the TMO - confronted with limited information and resources - cannot achieve an optimal solution. Instead, both project actors and end-users accept a «satisficing» [SIC] solution (Simon, 2004). This study hypothesizes that two organizational factors have an important influence on user satisfaction in post-disaster housing projects: (i) centralized decision making (coupled with lack of information); and (ii) the capacity of the structure of the Temporary Multi-Organization (TMO) to take into account the active participation of users in project planning, management, financing and design. A case study of a post-disaster housing project in the Maghreb region helps us validate this hypothesis. Building up on this hypothesis, indicators of technology transfer (as proposed by the Logical Framework Analysis) serve as a basis to assess users’ satisfaction. The research does not establish a cause-effect relationship between the two variables of the study. However, the analysis of the structure of the TMO and users’ satisfaction highlight several principles, related with the project initiation and management, that can be implemented to improve reconstruction practices in developing countries.

Full textO presente trabalho é uma reflexão de um modo de habitar, em harmonia, sobre um território virgem. Apresenta uma alternativa à construção tradicional, através do desenvolvimento de um módulo que s complementa com outros módulos e a sua envolvente natural (a paisagem onde se insere). Apresenta-se um tipo de habitação que vai ao encontro de uma nova forma de vida, associada ao êxodo urbano e aos movimentos neo-rurais. Desta forma, desenvolveu-se um módulo de habitação que procura promover uma utilização racional e consciente na utilização das necessidades naturais, como a água e energia. A pesquisa bibliográfica realizada permitiu analizar e interpretar os actuais conceitos de ruralização, de arquitectura modular, bem como formas de habitar junto da natureza ou em espaços pequenos para através deles desenvolver elementos arquitectónicos que permitissem dar resposta aos objectivos iniciais desta investigação. Outro tema predominante para a presente investigação, foi o modo de viver em espaços móveis, como veleiros ou caravanas - estruturas que servem para viver directamente com a envolvente. São móveis e transportam consigo os equipamentos necessários para uma determinada autonomia. Algumas soluções são adaptadas, no projecto que se apresenta. O território do barlavento algarvio tem algumas restrições na construção de novos espaços de habitação ou comércio. Assim, são várias as soluções encontradas para adicionar, criar habitação ou outros espaços comunitários. Desta forma, surgem variadas soluções arquitectónicas nos mais variados pontos deste território. O módulo proposto neste trabalho, com a sua forma hexagonal, e capacidade de adaptação ao local e à tipologia, cria uma identidade arquitectónica ao território. O barlavento do Algarve e Costa Vicentina tem uma identidade própria, na sua morfologia, fauna e flora endémicas. Necessita, também, manter a sua identidade arquitéctónica e salvaguardar a sua autenticidade. Este projecto propõe a construção de um módulo que permite anexar-se a outros, de forma a criar um espaço habitável. Assim, existe a possibilidade de construir espaços de variadas tipologias. São propostos seis módulos equipados de diferentes maneiras. Para além do módulo base, propõe-se outros três, equipados com cozinhas e/ou casa de banho. Outros dois são espaços exteriores de terraço, com ou sem alpendre. Os módulos estão equipados com sistema de painéis fotovoltaicos e armazenamento da energia, tal como depósitos de água e sistema de recolha de água da chuva.
The present work is a reflection of a way of inhabiting, in harmony, on a virgin territory. It presents an alternative to traditional construction, through the development of a module that complements with other modules and its natural surroundings (the landscape where it is inserted). It presents a type of housing that meets a new way of life, associated with urban exodus and neo-rural movements. In this way, a housing module has been developed that seeks to promote rational and conscientious use of natural needs, such as water and energy. The bibliographical research carried out allowed us to analyse and interpret the current concepts of ruralisation, modular architecture, as well as ways of living in nature or in small spaces, through which to develop architectural elements that would allow us to respond to the initial objectives of this research. Another predominant theme for the present investigation was the way of living in mobile spaces, such as sailboats or caravans - structures that serve to live directly with the surroundings. They are mobile and carry the necessary equipment for a certain autonomy. Some solutions are adapted in the project presented. The territory of the western Algarve has some restrictions in the construction of new spaces of housing or commerce. Thus, there are several solutions found for adding, creating housing or other community spaces. In this way, diverse architectural solutions appear in the most varied points of this territory. The module proposed in this work, with its hexagonal shape, and capacity to adapt to the site and typology, creates an architectural identity to the territory. The Western Algarve and Costa Vicentina have their own identity, in their morphology, endemic fauna and flora. It also needs to maintain its architectonic identity and safeguard its authenticity. This project proposes the construction of a module that allows to be attached to others, in order to create a liveable space. Thus, there is the possibility of constructing spaces of various types. Six modules equipped in different ways are proposed. Besides the base module, three others are proposed, equipped with kitchens and / or bathroom. The other two are outside terrace spaces, with or without porch. The modules are equipped with a system of photovoltaic panels and energy storage, such as water tanks and rainwater collection system.
