Resumen
SANTAMARINA-MACHO, Carlos. More than place: location as project strategy in contemporary architecture. Estoa [online]. 2017, vol.6, n.11, pp.160-180. ISSN 1390-9274. https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v006.n010.a01.
The bond between architecture and place should not be limited to a description of the situation (where and when), but it can also imply the taking of a decision about the way (how) and the reason (why) for this relationship which is sometimes, by itself, able to make the projectual act have sense. This paper reflects, through case studies, on several ways of addressing this topic from the point of view of the contemporary architectural design, and on the emergence of new mechanisms for representing, communicating and making it comprehensible. The paper also aims to overcome the idea of site plan as a mere technical tool, claiming for its new role as main ideological instrument for the development of the architectural projects.
