Experimental studio TRA-NE: transfers between research, learning and professional practice

Abstract

The experimental studio TRA-NE is a teaching experience that is taught as an elective course at the master's program in ETSAB (UPC), based on an active learning in which by comparing case studies from different time contexts (XX-XXI) and taking the classroom as a laboratory, students investigate and share strategies for representing exemplary projects. This communication aims to spread the innovative teaching initiative, showing the foundations of a workshop that promotes the potential of architectural representation as tools to obtain knowledge. Their confrontation in different temporal contexts provides a surprise factor such as the unexpected relationships of the work of Zenghelis-Dogma, or the suggestive affinities in the Price-Langarita / Navarro inquiry. So, through observation, thought and debate; the student is able to assimilate architectures, understanding them as a language and favors the ability to apply this knowledge adequately in their Diploma project or in their future professional practice.
