This topic is developed from the perspective of the western notion of landscape, which emerged in the 15th century through painting, by means of the representation of nature. In architecture, the window assumes the role of a frame similar to the frame of a painting, framing portions of the landscape. In this sense, the windows provide a means to understand the notion of landscape given their position of mediation between the space that is outside and inside. When framing an external scene and thus bringing it into the building, the windows allow the viewer to assign meaning to external space, perceiving it as landscape. Thus, it is through the window that nature is framed and transformed into landscape, allowing the infinite to fit in the finite, the invisible to be found in the visible and so allowing the landscape to be glimpsed between the lines of the frame. By allowing that a certain portion of nature be cut, the framework becomes the means indispensable to the perception of the landscape. Keywords: landscape, window, framework. Este artigo discute como a arquitetura do edifício, por meio do enquadramento da janela, pode estimular a apreciação da paisagem e provocar o observador a envolver-se com ela. Essa temática se desenvolve na perspectiva da noção de paisagem ocidental, que nasce no século XV através da pintura, por meio da representação da natureza. Na arquitetura, a janela assume o papel da moldura à semelhança do quadro na pintura, enquadrando porções da paisagem. Nesse sentido, as janelas proporcionam um meio à compreensão da noção de paisagem dada sua posição de mediação entre espaço exterior e interior. Ao enquadrarem uma cena externa trazendo-a para o interior do edifício, as janelas permitem que o observador atribua significado ao espaço externo, percebendo-o como paisagem. É através da janela, portanto, que a natureza é enquadrada e transformada em paisagem, permitindo que o infinito caiba no finito, o invisível se ache no visível, e, assim, a paisagem seja vislumbrada entre as linhas da moldura. O enquadramento, permitindo que determinada porção da natureza seja recortada, torna-se o meio imprescindível à percepção da paisagem.Palavras-chave: paisagem, janela, enquadramento.
