Centro de investigación y capacitación agrícola de la mora para el municipio de Piedecuesta

Abstract

To address the architectural proposal of a La Mora Agricultural Research and Training Center, located in the municipality of Piedecuesta, the methodological principles proposed by Enrico Tedeschi in his book “Theory of Architecture” are implemented and adapted, based on three components essential which are: Society, Nature and Art and Technique. This first component begins with a typological analysis of similar projects, where location, formal, functional and constructive determinants of the same are recognized. Subsequently, the study of the so-called “cultural landscape” is indicated, where the characteristics of the municipality are found from the analysis of demographic, natural, geographic and road connection values, the above in order to select the optimal place of implantation. Once the implantation site has been prescribed, starting from the second component, the physical and environmental characteristics of the lot are analyzed. In the third component, organic architecture is studied and, in parallel, the management of a concept of unity presented by Javier P. Igualada as architectural references to establish a relationship between the building and its natural environment, in turn allowing the reinforcement of formal and technical concepts of the draft. The functional analysis of the project together with the technical description of the research and post-production spaces implemented in it were fundamental for the development of the project. This research results in some computing principles that are a response to the location, formal, functional and technical determinants of the project and the area table.
