The Trace of the First Travel of an Architect: Scientific Anatomy. Representation and Transmission in the Project and in the Teaching of Architecture
Tutor: Riccardo Palma
The experience of the architect’s first journey analysed as a tool for training, knowledge, composition and critical reflection. The importance of travel memories; references, representation, communication and transmission. This study argues that the pedagogical aspects of the architectural voyage imply an understanding of the journey as a didactic experience, as a formative instrument that manages to transcend the subjectivity of the experience collected through the references stored in the travel notebooks. The role of travel is its restitution, written or drawn, in the project and in the teaching-learning of architecture.
