A representação gráfica na Revista Projeto & Design.

Esta pesquisa inicia-se pelo estudo das diferentes maneiras de representação de um projeto arquitetônico: desenhos analógicos e digitais, desenhos naturais e técnicos, desenhos auxiliados por computador, maquetes físicas e modelos digitais. Teve como objetivo analisar a representação gráfica utilizada nas publicações de obras arquitetônicas em mídias impressas especializadas, tendo sido selecionada a Revista Projeto & Design como estudo de caso. Com este estudo foi possível, por meio de bibliometria gráfica, verificar as contribuições das representações na compreensão e leitura dos projetos arquitetônicos, elencando-se e exemplificando-se as tipologias de imagens utilizadas nas últimas décadas, bem como relacionar os resultados com o momento histórico em que foram projetadas ou publicadas.

A cidade e o sanduíche: análise da capa do primeiro exemplar da revista Traço (1987)

This paper conducts an analysis of the cover of the first issue of Trace magazine, conceived and edited by a group of graphic artists from Bauru (SP) published in November 1987 from the study proposed by Donald Norman (2008) especially through the visceral, behavioral and reflective approaches. This is a critical exercise, based on the study, of the use and application of the theory of Norman, which focuses on the development and focusing the scope of graphic design.

Arqueología del futuro

A través de la historia aparecen muchas y variadas manifestaciones de cambio, necesarias para afrontar el futuro2 de la humanidad; también de la arquitectura. Estas manifestaciones, alternativas, teorías y proyectos, a menudo denostados por la crítica o dejados de lado por las teorías históricas de carácter generalista, destacan por su capacidad de convertirse en herramientas críticas frente al orden establecido, promoviendo así nuevos imaginarios colectivos. En el contexto temporal que transcurre desde finales de la década de los años cincuenta hasta mediados de los setenta, esa “búsqueda del futuro” no sólo se encuentra totalmente aceptada y popularizada, sino que llega a convertirse en un acto necesario, legitimado por la incorporación de la futurología como ciencia de estudio fundamental. Este contexto resulta el marco idóneo para la aparición de una serie de predicciones arquitectónicas encaminadas a dibujar nuevos caminos posibles para el futuro de la arquitectura, o lo que es lo mismo, para una arquitectura del futuro: “Où vivrons-nous demain ?” (1963) y “Les cités de l'avenir” (1966) del historiador francés Michel Ragon, el número “AD 2000+” (1967) de la revista Architectural Design y “The Future of the Future” (1969) del artista inglés John McHale, “Architecture: action and plan” (1967) y “Experimental Architecture” (1970) de Peter Cook, “Megastructure. Urban futures of the recent past” del crítico inglés Reyner Banham, “Architecture 2000” (1971) del norteamericano Charles Jencks, “Stadstrukturen für morgen” (1971) del suizo Justus Dahinden, “Arthropods: new design futures” (1972) del editor norteamericano Jim Burns y la sección “Cosmorama” (1965-1973) de la revista inglesa Architectural Design, pueden considerarse como las más destacadas. A pesar de lo heterogéneo de sus autores y enfoques, todas ellas gravitan en torno a cuatro alternativas para una redefinición del futuro de la arquitectura: - La incorporación de la arquitectura al heterogéneo espectro formal derivado de la explosión de las artes visuales y la exuberancia y proliferación de los objetos de consumo a través de un CAMBIO DE ESCALA. - La generación de nuevas relaciones que experimenten en torno a los límites entre natural y artificial, o PERVERSIONES NATURALES. - La apertura de un nuevo camino, HACIA UNA ARQUITECTURA VIRTUAL, que experimente con una construcción de ambientes auspiciada por los avances tecnológicos derivados del control perceptivo. - LA MOVILIDAD COMO OPCIÓN DE FUTURO, una respuesta a la aparición de una nueva sociedad en continuo cambio, abogando por estructuras más flexibles en todos los campos del ámbito arquitectónico, de lo urbano a lo doméstico. ABSTRACT of humanity, and of architecture too. Those signs, alternatives, theories and projects, that were often neglected by the critics or left aside by historical theories of general-interest, have an outstanding capacity to become critical tools with regards to the established order, and to promote new collective imagery. Within the timeframe that lasts between late fifties and midseventies, that "quest for the future" is not only accepted and made popular, but it even becomes an act of necessity that is legitimized by the incorporation of futurology as a key scientific field of study. This timeframe provides the most suitable context for the appearance of a series of architectonical predictions that are aimed to define new potential paths for the future architecture to follow, in other words, an architecture of the future: "Où vivrons-nous demain?" (1963) y "Les cités de l'avenir" (1966) from French historian Michel Ragon, issue number "AD 2000+" (1967) of Architectural Design magazine and "The Future of the Future" (1969) from English artist John McHale, "Architecture: action and plan" (1967) and "Experimental Architecture" (1970) from Peter Cook, "Megastructure. Urban futures of the recent past" from English critic Reyner Banham, "Architecture 2000" (1971) from North-American Charles Jencks, "Stadstrukturen für morgen" (1971) from Swiss Justus Dahinden, "Arthropods: new design futures" (1972) from North-American editor Jim Burns and the section "Cosmorama" (1965-73) from English magazine Architectural Design, can be considered as the most prominent architectonical predictions of that time. Despite the heterogeneity of authors and approaches, all of them are built around four alternatives that are aimed to re-define the future of architecture: - The incorporation of architecture to the heterogeneous formal spectrum of visual arts and the exuberance and the proliferation of objects of massive consumerism through an operation of CHANGE IN SCALE. - The production of new relationships aimed to experiment around the limits between natural and artificial, in other words, NATURAL PERVERSIONS. - A new road TOWARDS VIRTUAL ARCHITECTURE, to enable experiences with ambiance construction that are favored by technological advances derived from the control of perception. - MOVILITY AS AN OPTION FOR THE FUTURE, a response to the appearance of a new ever changing society, a bet on more flexible structures in all areas of architecture, from urban to domestic scale.

Design of an Edge -coupled dual -ring Split-ring resonator

Electric permittivity and magnetic permeability control electromagnetic wave propagation th rough materials. I n naturally occu rring materials, these are positive. Artificial materials exhi b iting negative material properties have been reported : they are referred to as metamaterials. This paper concentrates on a ring-type split-ring resonator (SRR) exhibiting negative magnetic permeability. The design and synthesis of the SRR using the genetic-algorithm approach is explained in detail. A user-friendly g raphical user i nterface (G U I ) for an SRR optim izer and estimator using MATLAB TM is also presented

Fashion magazines: design implications of focus and perception variance between Chinese and UK females

A growing segment of Chinese women are willing to spend a high percentage of their income on fashion related products, however there appears to be concern over the quality of Chinese fashion magazines. Concern can be focused in two major issues: i) fashion magazine design, and ii) pictorial and textual distribution of content. This paper investigates how human factors (i.e. social norms and individual differences) influence fashion magazine design/format preferences, and investigates the difference in readership patterns between British and Chinese Women. Our study identifies significant differences between UK and Chinese readership; which has an impact on magazine viewing patterns and content preference.

Future, Fortune, and the graphic design of information

This is a study of graphic information designed for Future Books/Future magazine (UK) and Fortune magazine (USA) in the years immediately after the Second World War. It highlights work made by the Isotype Institute for Future, which is then situated against contributions by Abram Games and F. H. K. Henrion. Similar work in Fortune under the art editorship of Will Burtin is discussed in a parallel account, drawing on examples by him and by others including György Kepes, Matthew Liebowitz, Alex Steinweiss and Ladislav Sutnar. Attention is drawn to links and relationships between to the two periodicals and the graphic information published in both. Further comparisons are made between underlying editorial and design strategies pursued by Otto Neurath (Isotype Institute) and Will Burtin. An argument is made for recognising the little-known innovations of Future alongside the long-acknowledged innovations of Fortune.
