ABSTRACTThe theme of this paper regards the conceptual visualization and the research for a general method that evaluates the key elements of an architectural composition. The methodological experience here demonstrated refers to a specific case study that belongs to the scientific research. The research, begun in October 2010, is the result of a work about the bohemian architect Josef Gočár (1880-1945), done by a group of research at the Milan Polytechnic, within the Architectural Design Laboratory. The investigation method plays a role of a knowledge instrument that verifies the structure that subtends compositional procedures. The graphic processes used are the tools for conception, verification, evaluation and communication of the individual project components and the architectural space. |
