Learning Outcomes

The aim of the curricular unit of History of Portuguese Architecture is to understand and to discuss the specificities of Portuguese architecture.

One aims to understand how the particular conditions of the land and society had an influence on the organization of space and on the building forms, vis-à-vis with the ever-present models of international architecture. Contrary to what is sometimes usual, one doesn´t look up to architectural manifestations of what is equal to other central contexts of Europe, but rather to other which are least known and most particular.

We will also address the architecture produced by the Portuguese outside Portugal.

The ultimate goal is to provide the future architects with a solid cultural basis that allows them to be capable of a critical and well informed intervention - increasingly requested - on the built heritage bequeathed to us.
