PROFILE OF RESEARCH ACTIVITY
- Giulio Barazzetta collaborates with continuity in the research activities of the Faculties of Architecture of the Politecnico di Milano in the disciplinary scientific sector ICAR/14 ARCHITECTURAL AND URBAN COMPOSITION, since 1985. The activity as associate professor continues that carried out as a tenured researcher and previous ones.
- The research concerns the role of ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN TECHNIQUES: the integration and separation of disciplines in architectural design today; the tools and means of representation in their partiality and multiplicity; the project as a procedure considering the program-project relationship and the themes of representation between text and figures. The question evokes the themes proper to the construction of architecture, and involves the relationship to the field of disciplines based on physics, the properties of materials and the environment, which extend in their complements to the procedures of building, to the building site as a place of the production and commissioning of architecture through its constructive elements, and finally to the appropriate functioning of buildings as organisms.
- The subjects of study are focused on the INTEGRATED DESIGN OF ARCHITECTURE. The objective of these studies is to help clarify the nexus between design and construction in the contemporary scenario of the representation of architecture, thus rediscovering the project as a substantial locus of theory.
- This field of study concerns the links between ARCHITECTURE AND ENGINEERING IN THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF ARCHITECTURE. Thus circumscribed, the research topic identifies construction as a design technique. It seeks to study its ways and means by analyzing the relationship between architects and engineers-the very architecture of engineers in design and the formulation of the procedures of construction and commissioning where they are considered as the foundation of the built form.
