The article explores the role of research in architecture as an intermediate territory between science and art, emphasising the importance of expressive tools such as drawing, writing and typological comparison. Through the concept of ‘archaeology of the design process’, the author reflects on how method, subjectivity and context are indispensable elements in producing results that are original yet open to discussion. Architectural research is seen as a dynamic process, in which the comparison with existing cases and the conscious use of representative tools allow the construction of sharable knowledge that is never definitive.

Abstract

The article explores the role of research in architecture as an intermediate territory between science and art, emphasising the importance of expressive tools such as drawing, writing and typological comparison. Through the concept of ‘archaeology of the design process’, the author reflects on how method, subjectivity and context are indispensable elements in producing results that are original yet open to discussion. Architectural research is seen as a dynamic process, in which the comparison with existing cases and the conscious use of representative tools allow the construction of sharable knowledge that is never definitive.
