From the square to the cube: a methodology for understanding Architecture

Abstract

Architecture is an integrative activity in which art and technique, matter and emptiness, past and future, technology and crafts, individual and society coexist. At times the teaching of the first year has been divided into subjects that appear to the student as disconnected islands. The aim of the present text is to propose transversal exercises that allow building bridges between them that facilitate the student the global understanding of Architecture.
