Unidad sistema y estrategia. La unidad constructiva como estrategia proyectual, estudio y reconstrucción de 4 casos arquitectónicos

Abstract

The present research paper shows the possibility for the architectural project to be developed from constructive units that become parts of a major complexity system and that may work as effective tools when it comes to think about the constructive evolution of a formal scheme.

For this purpose, four architectural cases belonging to the work of Solano Benítez, Rafael Iglesia, José María Sáez and Antón García have been selected; and the analysis has been developed throughout their reconstruction, considering as a common denominator, the spatial approach in which the constructive unit becomes a project strategy.

Four cases are to be analyzed, one project belonging to each architect, using the redrawing as an analysis tool, which recognizes the criteria and project operations, assuming the constructive unit as a project strategy, which formal consequences are ostensible in their final result. Within the analysis of the works it is considered the existing relation between the building's disposition, its constructive system and its immediate environment.
