Themen der Lehrveranstaltung
The "Interior Architecture" course aims to provide the basic tools for understanding the meanings of architectural interiors, aiming to develop the critical capacity and sensitivity necessary to understand the generative role of the Interior in architectural dynamics. The lessons will be structured around the following themes: 1| Interiority, internality, poetics. Definition of the discipline of Interior Architecture. Humans at the center of the project (anthropometry, proxemics, sensoriality). Hermeneutic circularity in the design phases. 2| Interiority, internality, pedagogy in learning spaces. 3| ENCLOSURE | MARGIN | INFRARED. Archetypes of the limit. Spatial themes: Interior/Exterior; Form of the enclosure and its content. 4| ACCESSING | ENTERING | WELCOMING. Access; The threshold. 5| PATHS. Crossing space. Perception through the senses: visual and tactile experience. Being in space: appropriation and contemplation. 6|ENVIRONMENT |SCOPE. Object/phenomenon relationship. Components of the scope: the role of furnishings in defining space (total integration/movable systems) Workshop activities: Case study analysis sheets The course aims to develop: - an awareness of the reciprocal hermeneutic relationship between the interior, the furnishings, and the entire architectural complex of a building, including the relationship between artificial and natural space. - the ability to understand the connections between formal constructions and the possible declinations of living, - the ability to adapt a space, whether public or private, to the human scale, both physical and cultural, - the ability to understand the spatial role of even non-permanent and fixed elements within architectural space, whether small or large.
