Abstract(s)
O presente trabalho consiste sobre a relação entre as experiências da viagem e o processo de pensar arquitetura, focando-se no processo criativo e projetual da arquiteta Manuela Braga. Neste seguimento a investigação organiza-se em duas partes. A primeira parte reside na análise da premissa da viagem como forma de aprendizagem, contextualizando a sua pertinência ao longo dos tempos. Neste sentido, procurou-se refletir de que modo as memórias provenientes de diversas paisagens e culturas atuam e moldam a produção arquitetónica. Além dos aspetos referidos, apresentamos uma reflexão sobre a arquitetura popular dos Açores, tendo como propósito enquadrar o contexto em que as obras de Manuela Braga se inserem.
A segunda parte da investigação incide nas casas projetadas por Manuela Braga em São Miguel, nos Açores, analisando o modo as suas viagens são exploradas nas suas obras. Nesta ótica destacam-se diversos aspetos, tais como a caraterização morfológica, a organização espacial, a escolha de materiais, as técnicas de construção e o tratamento da luz.
Em suma propõe a viagem como uma ferramenta fundamental para os arquitetos, já que esta transcende fronteiras geográficas, pode enriquecer e potenciar os conceitos arquitetónicos.
Tendo como base a ‘leitura’ da linguagem arquitetónica das obras de Manuela Braga, observamos uma relação intrínseca entre experiências de viagem e a o ato de projetar.
This work is about the relationship between travelling experiences and the process of thinking about architecture, focusing on the creative and design process of the architect Manuela Braga. The research is organised in two parts. The first part analyses the premise of travel as a form of learning, contextualising its relevance over time. In this sense, we sought to reflect on how memories from different landscapes and cultures act and mould architectural production. In addition to these aspects, we present a reflection on the popular architecture of Azores, with the aim of framing the context in which Manuela Braga's works are inserted. The second part of the research focuses on the houses designed by Manuela Braga in São Miguel, in Azores, analysing how her travels are explored in her works. From this perspective, various aspects are highlighted, such as morphological characterisation, spatial organisation, choice of materials, construction techniques and the treatment of light. In short, she proposes travelling as a fundamental tool for architects, since it transcends geographical boundaries and can enrich and enhance architectural concepts. Based on the 'reading' of the architectural language of Manuela Braga's works, we see an intrinsic relationship between travelling experiences and the act of designing.
