Resumen: Building information modelling is an information delivery method that is made available for the use of architects and the other actors of the architecture, engineering and construction industry. In recent years, in many countries it became an obligatory project delivery mode for architects. As a result, prevailing use of this method alters the modes of notation and the logic of design in architectural offices. While architects used to employ representations of the design to communicate with other parties, with the BIM methods and software they are forced to create information models which can be regarded as simulations of a future building and are open to the control and revisions of other participants who are involved in building processes. Since it promotes a collaborative production and gathering whole information on a single model, it brings many opportunities such as increased reliability, foreseeing of costs and calculation of efficiency. However, by causing architects to change their accustomed ways of working, BIM also effects design approaches of architects and the nature of architecture. In this regard this paper aims to discover in which aspects BIM methods have impacts on architecture and alter the focus of architectural design especially in the designing processes at the architectural offices. The paper mainly depends on current literature and aims to analyse current conditions in relation with the old habits.2018-09-01T00:00:00ZRetrospective-Retroactive Evaluation of Architecture Student Projects Competition.

Resumen: As we know, especially in the areas where creativity plays a major role it may not be very fruitful to implement standardized teaching-learning sessions to help young designers to develop their design abilities. There is a strong need for different types of learning to widen the students learning processes. To be able to realise this objective, we believe, it is so important to organize suitable environments for young designers to learn from their peers and exchange their ideas. student architectural design competitions can be perceived as flexible, learner-centered environments where students have more effective learning opportunities. With this point of view, Association for Architectural Education (ArchED) started to organize a student projects competition, Student Awards for Architectural Education, since the year 2002. The main focus of the paper is to analyse and evaluate this competition within the framework of architectural education based on different aspects and indicators of learning processes.2018-09-01T00:00:00ZFrom mechanical to digital paradigm.

Resumen: The new digital tools have become into essential instruments for architecture: they have revolutionized various fields, from graphic representation to conception and including to the development of new ways of transferring knowledge. The current computer tools allow us a more accurate representation of reality and digital manufacturing tools make possible to control the design and production simultaneously. The completion process has a great influence on the result. Architecture must not avoid the existing reciprocity between the formal intentions and the possibilities of manufacture. The paradigm of the standardization, which it is present during the most of the XXth century, gives way to the digital paradigm present nowadays in the schools of architecture and the Fablab or Digital Laboratories. From an experimental perspective diverse international workshops have been organized, as an strategy to test the validity of the new digital paradigm. For one week the students are working about deployable structures and they design architectural artefacts using a series of methodologies introduced at the beginning of the seminar. The new digital paradigm allows to produce exclusive prototypes in contrast to the mechanical paradigm that realized products in series. For this reason it becomes necessary to define some useful parameters to relate and compare different characteristics between prototypes, and all these parameters associated with the efficiency of the process.2018-09-01T00:00:00ZDesigning a different prison.

Resumen: In recent years, Architecture has returned to take an interest in penitentiary structures, rediscovering its civil and educational role. Prisons represent a device of forced detention, preventing prisoners to move away freely from the spaces of imprisonment. Detention models develop from a control idea through which the State exercises its power. Space is the manifestation of that power. As these buildings serve as control, society "excludes" such infrastructures from inhabited centers, stripping them of their function of public service. Architecture can provide a different view of detention, suggesting a new way of living such spaces and offering ideas for legislative instruments to the State. Similarly, designers should communicate with the users of prisons in order to better their lives, playing a pedagogical role towards the inmates. The paper summarizes these issues, starting from the researches carried out by the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples “Federico II”. The aim of this study is to define a method to design an inclusive prison, by using an exemplary project: the new prison for Nola, Italy. In this case, attention shifts from the typological definition of space to the action each person performs within it. The space is shaped from the measure of the gestures of man, determining a prison able to build positive relationships within people and its surroundings, serving society and the context in which it is located.2018-09-01T00:00:00Z
