Modern Design Notebook. An approach to design at 1:1 scale.
Tutors: Carmen Martínez + Fernando Usó
Participants focused on the values of architecture and design in the Modern Movement, through on-site observation, detailed drawing or 3D modeling. A series of drifts and visits throughout the University, in which the participants will complete a notebook of details, with a precise methodology, allowing them to learn the values of the elements of architecture (facades, brise-soleils, stairs, floors) as well as the details of furniture (furnishings, lighting, interior design details).
After the analysis process, the participants will redesign the objects and construction details, according to the new context, new paradigms of sustainability, which can be used for future rehabilitation interventions. The digitalization of these notebooks will form an inventory of the modern heritage of the Cheste Workers University which will be collected as an online dossier
