Representação espacial e visão de mundo: uma abordagem crítica em favor de uma arquitetura experienciada.

Abstract

Recent spatial representation techniques are triggering profound changes in human life. Important transformations have created the need to reflect critically on the quality of the architectural spaces generated from these changes. The argument of this thesis considers that the current criticism pointed out by some authors regarding the disembodiment of contemporary architecture continues as the effect of creating a pattern, defined by the Renaissance worldview, for a unique way of perceiving and representing space. It is understood that, from that period, there was an improvement of these norms, which arrive until today with the representation of spaces conceived by digital means. For this defense experiments were carried out, in the teaching of architecture and urbanism and in São Lourenço city, in Minas Gerais. It demonstrate that the construction and perception of space representation techniques are not neutral or universal, and therefore, the use of different spatial representation techniques can favor the approximation of different worldviews. This observation would, therefore, lead to placing the representation not with a linear and evolutionary response, a view typical of the renaissance, but rather, it is heterogeneous, polychromatic and cyclical as the real seems to respond.
