Description
Résumé:The first course in Urbanism at the School of Architecture of Alcalá is organized in two related parts, theory and practice, and introduces students to urban design and planning. On the one hand, students acquire a solid, yet incipient, theoretical knowledge and, on the other hand, they start designing projects in the city. Both tasks are part of a morphological approach that inherits some methods from Manuel de Solá-Morales’ Laboratori d’ Urbanisme de Barcelona and some from the Italian school.The theoretical part is subdivided into two segments. First, the main concepts of the morphological approach are presented to students, who are then exposed to a brief history of the traditional city and its urban form, from the Pre-industrial era to the urban renewal in the 1970s.The practical part includes both analysis and proposal. The analysis deals firstly with the structural scale, framing a site through different inquiries; secondly, it looks closer at diverse morphological aspects. In the proposal, students use that second morphological scale to create designs through the categories previously studied. Lastly, students propose some graphic urban rules at the typological scale.The paper establishes links between the course exercises and professional practices and concludes with in-class opinions and results.
