A inauguração do território na arquitetura moderna brasileira

Abstract

The opportunity to constitute inaugural gestures in the landscape characterized modern Brazilian architectural production. The article aims to mapping and detailing three design strategies of this production – the exploitation the opposition between ground and construction in the design of the building by introducing the topographical design as part of the project; the creation of large shelters; and the functional indetermination, constituting free territories - allowing a strong relationship between the building and the territory, which transcends the functional and programmatic issues and extends the useful life of the designed structures with great openness to new uses, constituting what Flávio Motta once called "Significant spaces without name".
