Learning outcomes:
General objective of the course: To guide students to become architects who are expert researchers and are both initiators of building projects and effective members of the construction team.
Specific objectives: Justification and elaboration of the chosen solution: conceptual significance; relations with the heritage context; functional, esthetic and historical references; rehabilitating old buildings and articulating new extensions to achieve functional adequacy; assimilation of intervention methods (with the restoration and insertion of new parts of buildings) in the case of historical monuments, by preserving the identified cultural values ​​and highlighting their identity within their historical zone, in the context of the natural evolution of the city.
Content:
The study aims to cultivate and refine the skills acquired during the exercise in the 4th semester, in a different urban and architectural context, with a higher level of complexity. Thus, in order to capitalize on the cultural-historical potential of the area located in the vicinity of an important monument, the aim is to identify a compatible function, through which its protection and preservation over time will be ensured.
The theme ultimately aims at a proposal for the revitalization and rehabilitation of a building that holds heritage value, which would formulate, based on the study of the urban tissue in the area, a coherent response from the point of view of the contemporary exploitation of the functional and urban potential and at the same time to gives this place a new urban and architectural value. In this sense, the transformation of the built context is also studied through remodeling, sanitation and development, expansion, respectively the insertion of a new construction. The proposals will get shape following the site analysis, aiming at the creation of spaces identified by the authors of the projects as necessary for the proposed function.
The project aims at the assimilation of research, regulation and intervention methods (with the reevaluation of the existing one and the insertion of new buildings / new parts of the building) in the case of buildings with heritage value, by preserving the identified cultural values ​​and highlighting their identity within their historical surroundings in the context of the natural evolution of the city. The exercise is designed as a simulation of research and design works (conservation-restoration and insertion by expanding/replacing the existing built structures) and includes their essential phases for the intervention on a building classified as a historical monument.
