| Sumario: | Exists a tight link between man and his place; between man and architecture. And it is in this relationship where the present investigation finds its leitmotiv, since man, as being that inhabits, develops and transforms himself in and with his places. In this relationship resides the importance of reaching a balance between change and permanency at the moment to modify place, with the purpose of offering to man a place in which his memories and hopes melt down into a more human today. In this transformation process both project and history are revealed as fundamental elements. This thesis assumes as primary hypothesis: since place is always physical and social, all aspiration of annulling anyone of these two elements or giving more value to one in detriment to the other impoverishes the reality and hinders the reading of the architectural object, putting in risk the tight articulation between man and place. As starting point, I take the concept of «sociophyisical place» developed by Josep Muntañola in “La arquitectura como lugar”, as well as the concept of «cronotop» elaborated by Mikhail Bakhtin. The earlier underlines the fact that architecture, as physical and social phenomenon, becomes an element of mediation between nature and culture. And, the latest, stands that space-time relations, generated inside a certain social frame and condensed in the artistic work through cronotop, enables to establish a new mediation between the real world, which fills with sense the work, and the world of fiction, that this work deploys. All this through the refiguration process or the use of the configured object. We are left to the hermeneutic scheme developed by Paul Ricour in Time and Narrative. In this work, Ricour demonstrates that the «human time», or historical time, emerges from the crossing, which is the outcome of the time refiguration through the reading act, between the Story (ideal) and the History (real). This fruitful crossing generates a narrative identity for an individual and for a community. In the same way, Ricour explains in his article “Architecture et narrativité” that in architecture the «human space» is configured starting from the intersection, which emerges from the space refiguration through the dwelling act, between the Project (ideal) and the Construction (real). But in this case it generates a spatial identity. By this way, the true «human place», comprised in the Greek word χώρα (Chora), not only arises from the union between a narrated human time and a built human space but from their true entwining in both a built time and a narrated space. All the complexity of this human place must be respected along its transformation process in time, and any intent of simplification impoverishes and makes considerably difficult the dialogue and exchange between project and history. Therefore, and as second hypothesis, I seek to demonstrate the importance that a dialogic process of design has for man and his place, being the «difference» not an obstacle for the exchange but an incentive and indispensable condition for the same one. For this reason I defend that only starting from a profound knowledge of history a new project can be truly generated and only by starting from a renewal look of the project, history can be enriched and evaluated…. |
