Abstract

This work aims to show a model of how to generate and organize the expertise of disciplines, even using science and technology as tools, are located beyond these. We apply this model, based on the so-called "indicial paradigm", formulated by C. Ginzburg, to the architectural project.

An analysis of the three phases of the architectural project is carried out: diagnosis, synthesis and concretion (Executive Project), highlighting some of the important aspects in its realization. The reordering of the phases, in the light of the indexical paradigm, allows obtaining the conclusions that are presented.

However how this knowledge is developed in modern society and how it should be transmitted will be described in a later work.
