Abstract
El trabajo por superposición de tramas de información gráfica ha sido una metodología de desarrollo proyectual utilizada por grandes arquitectos como alternativa a otros procesos metodológicos de diseño. Estas capas pueden estar referidas a aspectos tangibles de la arquitectura y el diseño urbano, esto es, elementos físicos, tocables, o a esas tensiones invisibles, intangibles que aportan valor sustancial a la arquitectura. La experimentación con este tipo de trabajo aporta al alumnado una metodología complementaria a otros procesos más lineales y controlados, permitiendo que la propia superposición de capas sugiera la aparición de ‘estructuras de sucesos’ inesperadas. En este artículo se presenta la secuencia de experimentación realizada sobre estas bases metodológicas en tres ejercicios consecutivos desde la composición en dos dimensiones, pasando por lo matérico hasta la creación de un proyecto completo. La pandemia COVID-19 entra a formar parte de estos estratos superpuestos de capas influyendo sustancialmente sobre el resultado final.
Overlapping graphic information patterns is an architectural design methodology used in the recent past by renowned architects as an alternative way to other design processes. Design layers can be referred to tangible aspects of architecture and design, this is, physically touchable elements, or to those invisible tensions that add core substantial value to architecture. By experimenting with this kind of work, students acquire a complementary methodology to other more linear and controlled processes, allowing them to bump into unexpected ‘structures of events’ suggested by the very overlapping layers. In this article we present the experimental sequence developed on this methodological basis over three consecutive exercises, from a two-dimensional composition, going through materiality until the pursuit of a whole architectural project. The COVID-19 pandemic enters the picture to take part of this stratified array of layers and substantially influence the final result.
