abstract:
Our time in its formal manifestation, has not yet been shown to possess an identifiable, test condition and at the same time, the definition of a style.
The construction of crisis identity of our times, draws the architect to a necessary reflection on the area that handles, or, call the project on man, questioning the historical role of the architect as an interpreter of the relationship between behaviors and spaces. Compared with those grounds, the essay, through quotations and readings compared to Tschumi, Loos and Zumthor writings, critically examines the controversial debate between the positions of the authors on how an architect can relate to the contemporary space, providing significant contributions to the role of contemporary architecture.
