Learning Goals
Continuing the activities developed in Laboratory of Architecture I, this curricular unit provides the tools to
better understand and intervene in the territory and / or heritage.
At the end of the curricular unit the student should be able to test the potential of speculative research in specific
architectural and urban contexts or, alternatively, from the study of specific cases to obtain knowledge from the
scope of architectural theories.

Contents
The programmatic content starts from a set of reflections and approaches to the concept of "project of
architecture as research". It is about enunciating the tools, methodologies and practices used by the architect
that constitute research in Architecture. The curricular unit encourages the development of speculations that
question current architectural practice, aiming to create in this context the ideal circumstances for a refoundation
of the principles of Architecture.
This Uc will have three distinct nuclei that constitute the axis of the intended theoretical-practical approach:
Project; Heritage issues; And Landscaping. In each of these nuclei will be developed different contents and
competences. The three areas are organized according to a logic of complementarity and not overlapping. The
most complete approach to the project and the different possibilities for intervention in the area is sought.

Teaching Methods
Theoretical-practical classes where a research work will be developed. External experts (in the areas of design
and construction sciences) who will work intensively with the students in an attempt to develop more specific
aspects of the proposed work will be invited. The evaluation will be composed of three different but
complementary elements. The same work will be developed according to the specificities of the different nuclei
(Project, Heritage and Landscaping issues) and evaluated according to the development manifested by the
students' work.
Interim moment of appreciation of the works by jury constituted by the college of doctorates of the area of
architecture of the Department of Architecture of the University of Évora.
