The continuous evolution of cities throughout the 20th century brought their growth into confrontation with the surrounding landscape. This encounter was the subject of the reflection proposed to the fifth-year students of the subject Architectural History, Theory and Composition 4. The aim of the proposed reflection consisted of finding a new way of exploring and characterising these interactions between the city and architecture with the territory, based on their study and reinterpretation. To this end, a three-stage exercise was proposed: the characterisation of the landscape; the definition of the interactions between architecture-landscape; and as a final result, the construction of the territorial model; where the latter aimed to translate the analysis and characterisation into an abstract model that would synthesise the process through the significance of the materials that build it.
