| Summary: | The paper introduces a discussion framework about the representation concept in architecture. This approach proposes that the
validity of the representation strategies is based on its capacity to link the discursive field (theory) with the operating field (project).
Based on this condition, it is possible to propose that the emergence of the representation in architecture is linked to the project
concept that defines architecture in the context of modernity. However, in the second half of the twentieth century, new variables
are incorporated to the traditional concept of project. Considering this evolution, it is possible to identify the critical potential of
architectural representation that allows the opening of the concept of the project, extending the disciplinary boundaries of architecture. |
