Arquitetura do invisível: um caminho sobre a escala

Abstract

This work brings the theoretical and practical approach of philosophers, artists and architects who worked with the notion of scale - directly or indirectly - in Your works. With the intention of analyzing and understanding contexts and their desires, the research in temporal journeys that will cover several eras. During the undergraduate years, I came into intense contact with the scale, so I present with this work end, the whole imaginative repertoire that I during my training, on this subject. I accepted the principle of scale as indispensable from the outset from the creative process to the representation and final execution of the constructed matter, and during this process, we can, if desired, distort and annihilate this principle and tailor any object (independent of size) to a certain form or spatiality. Perhaps philosophical distortions were necessary, conceptual and formal aspects so that to the human eye, an alternative means of employing the principle of scale, and take our gaze to new places that until then were invisible. I met the architecture as a form of knowledge, not just a knowledge of form. Therefore, I seek show here, that the artistic domain linked to knowledge scale can reveal unusual ways to see and think the world we know. Finally, transporting such revelations for discussion architecture and city and try to understand how they would be its applications in the form of an architectural project, that they keep hidden - between the lines of scale - innumerable formal possibilities.
