Uma casa de férias na Galé: apontamentos sobre um processo de projecto

Abstract

This work, presented under the title "A holiday home in Galé: Notes on a project process," seeks to explain one architectural design methodology, not as a systematic process, but rather as an intellectual and intuitive process. By conducting an architectural design for a holiday home to a specific client, this work seeks to expose the circumstances of the creative process involved, taking the opportunity of an academic context, making an approach to a real situation. Thus, it is intended to present the situations and relations that come from the confrontation between the wishes of the applicant, the place, the impulses and personal motivations, and constraints of various kinds that may emerge throughout the development of the proposal and the work, exposing key moments for its understanding.
