RESUMENDesde la docencia de la asignatura de Teoría de la Arquitectura, impartida en la ETSA de A Coruña, hemos impulsado una estructura docente de la materia basada en un acercamiento entre teoría y proyecto. Diversas arquitecturas atractivas para la sensibilidad contemporánea de nuestros alumnos son analizadas a través de las ideas formuladas en otras épocas históricas, en ocasiones como negación de lo propuesto y, en otras, en una perfecta sintonía conceptual que ha trascendido el tiempo histórico en el que problema y solución fueron teorizados. Se introduce la interacción entre distintas disciplinas como herramienta para el enriquecimiento del proyecto arquitectónico y se hacen lecturas transversales de conceptos aplicados en contextos diversos. El objetivo de este esfuerzo analítico está enfocado a la dotación de herramientas creativas para su aplicación en el proceso arquitectónico a partir de la teoría de la arquitectura, necesariamente leída desde el propio tiempo. Palabras clave: teoría, creación, proyecto ABSTRACTIn the subject of Theory of Architecture, in the School of Architecture of A Coruña, we have promoted an educational initiative based on an approach between theory and project. Some attractive architectures to the contemporary sensibility of our students are analysed through concepts from historical moments, sometimes against these and others, in a perfect conceptual harmony that has transcended the time where problems and solutions were theorized. The interaction among different disciplines is presented as a tool to the enrichment of the architectural project and transversal approaches are proposed in different contexts. The aim of this analytical effort is focused on giving creative tools to be applied to the architectural process from the theory of architecture, necessarily understood from the point of view of our time.
“Architectural Critique" is a subject of the Master's Degree in Architecture (MUA) at the School of Architecture of the University of A Coruña (ETSAC). Fernando Agrasar and Luz Paz Agras, the professors responsible for the course, orient its contents towards the development of critical judgment skills, with a clearly practical approach. The course has been taught since the academic year 2018-2019.In the 2020-21 academic year, the topics of the Final Year Project (TFM of the MUA) were various residential programmes in Santiago de Compostela. The main practice of the course focused on the elaboration of a critical essay on a contemporary housing programme built in Galicia.The different critical analyses were summarised and recorded to create a video in which a wide range of issues were condensed, including environmental, compositional, functional, social, economic, and technical aspects.This video was used as the basis for the debate, organised in a public session held at NORMAL (the University's cultural space and exhibition hall). The event was entitled: " Living today in Galicia: Critical Considerations". Fernanda Canales (CDMX) and Ricardo Carvalho (Lisbon) together with the professors of the subject composed the table in which questions about contemporary inhabiting were discussed, following the critical considerations included in the video of our students. After the round of interventions, a debate was opened among the participants.). This session, broadcast by streaming, condensed the contents of the course and fulfilled its academic objectives of offering students a reflective and critical position from which to develop their architectural project.
