Teaching unit ARCH-P8123 - AIM2 - Master 1 & 2
Teachers: David Lo Buglio (coordinator), Denis Derycke, Michel Lefèvre
Invited lecturer: Myriem Saoud (2019-2020) & Alexandre Van Dongen
The AIM "Architectural Analysis, Survey and Documentation of Built Heritage" module is divided into two compulsory seminars:
-The History and Theory of Architectural Representation seminar aims to develop specific theoretical knowledge of the history and theory of the graphic representation of architecture.
-The seminar on digital acquisition and graphic representation of built heritage offers a theoretical and practical introduction to survey techniques.
The aim of this module is to approach architectural representation in a different way from its practical application, and to explore the rich historical literature on the subject and learn how to exploit its content. Secondly, by experimenting with different digitisation techniques and methods, the aim of the course is to give students the resources, both technical and epistemological, to carry out an in-depth analysis of a heritage object and its context (topographical, urbanistic and stylistic). Students must also compare the theoretical point of view they have developed in the (History and Theory of Architectural Representation Seminars) with their digitisation work, in order to produce sets of critical and original representations.
2018-2020 theme - Seneffe Castle Theatre
The results of the studies carried out in the seminar were then used in the digital acquisition and the graphical representation of the accelerated perpective of the small theatre of the Chateau of Seneffe. Though the graphic means, the aim was to produce an analysis of this specific space. Built in 1779 by the architect Charles de Wailly, this neoclassical building is the most remarkable outbuilding on the domain.
The architectural object, as well as its historical, stylistic and landscape context, were studied before visiting the site to carry out a complete photogrammetric and lasergrammetric survey. Based on the results of the digital acquisition work, various methods (graphics and/or 3D prints) will be explored in order to produce a synthetic representation based on the formal analysis.
