VIRTUAL: Applying Education
Abstract
Kreda Workshop is a pedagogic and didactic experimentation that was held in the auditorium of the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Lisbon called the Cube for 3 hours on the afternoon of the 28SET2022. We invited 45 students of the 2nd and 4th years of the Architectural Integrated Master Course to occupy black wall surfaces of the Cube Auditorium and create Light and Shadow drawings with white chalk on Auditorium’s black walls. The Cube auditorium was divided into 5 Spaces. Each space belonged to one of 5 Architects: Alvaro Siza, Antonio Sant’Elia, Peter Zumpthor, Souto Moura, and Tadao Ando. Forty-five students were divided into 5 Groups. Each group initiated a set of drawings of an Architect that other groups would subsequently continue. Each group spent 10 minutes in each Space working with each Architect. As the output, various big-scale drawings were created. Further, a group of the participating students was interviewed. The process, the outputs, and the interviews were recorded and qualitatively analyzed wherefrom some relevant findings were found.
