Abstract

This Work Plan is linked to the 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 questions, presented in the thematic project Experiência ARQUIGRAFIA 4.0, and thus specifically collaborates with the activities foreseen in the research fronts: 3.1 Theoretical training -conceptual; 3.3 Design-constructive experimentation and 3.5 Critical analysis and scientific-technological improvement. This Scientific Initiation (IC) project will be dedicated to investigating, from selected cases based on the History of Architecture and Urbanism, under a technological perspective, architectural projects, built or not, that have faced the challenge of continuous spatial growth, whether in the within the building, or within the scope of urban structures. This selection of referential experiences will explore the theme in the long term (longue durée), dealing with methodological procedures specific to the studies of the Imaginary, such as conceptual maps and image constellations.
