  • 25% for module 1
  • 25% for module 2
  • 50% for module 3

Module 1 : theoretical note and pitch by highlighting the project patrimonial issues and justifying the stance in the spot pf the study

Module 2 : delivery and presentation of in situ observational freehand drawings of the architectural and urban space. This file will be evaluated according to criteria of layout and framing, expressiveness and sensitivity of line, correctness of proportions and projections, quality rendering of shadows, light material and texture of observation and analysis .

Module 3 : graphic production showing a stance towards the spot and developing a detail chosen in the intervention proposal

Teaching methods

The Learning Unit consists of :

  • sessions and lectures in order to sustain the question
  • in situ supervised observational drawing
  • supervised and student-run workshops.
Content

The Learning Unit will be devided in three complementary modules.

Module 1 : restauration theory

  • Knowledge and understanding of the arousing of the concept of « historical Monument » in the Western world.
  • Study of the works of significant theoreticians whose publications and thought contributed to the arousing of a restauration deontology.
  • Anlisis of important texts and charters which progressively crystallised this deontology.

Module 2 : means of expression and representation
Analysis/expression/communication of a simple patrimony architectural object.

  • In situ observational drawing as a knowledge, analysis, representation tool following the aim of the project, on different scales and for each step of the process (observation, research, composition, restitution, communication)

Module 3 : Design, setting up in a simple historical and patrimonial context. Generally speaking, the « Patrimony » project, initiated in 3rd BAC and specialized in Master opens and develops the question of the mutual valorization between a contemporary intervention and a building or a patrimonial point of interest, regarding :

  • its situation in a given environment
  • its inner and outer spatiality, its volume, its stylistic expression
  • its apportionment and logic related to its first function
  • its evolution throughout  time tending to homogeneity or heterogeneity
  • its first structural logic and its possible weaknesses due to modifications
  • its significance and use value regarding to the environment and community around.
