O presente trabalho para a obtenção do grau de Mestre propõe uma reflexão teórica sobre a forma
como vivemos o espaço construído. De forma a considerar a Arquitetura multissensorial como base
para o nosso discurso, Juhani Pallasmaa defende que (…) “toda a experiência comovente com a
Arquitectura é multissensorial; as características de espaço, matéria e escala são medidas
igualmente pelos nossos olhos, ouvidos, nariz, pele, língua, esqueleto e músculos. A Arquitectura
reforça a experiência existencial, a nossa sensação de pertencer ao mundo, e essa é essencialmente
uma experiência de reforço de identidade pessoal. Em vez da mera visão, ou dos cinco sentidos
clássicos, a Arquitectura envolve diversas esferas da experiência sensorial que interagem e fundem
entre si.”1 Assim, esta reflexão, centra-se e analisa o impacto das sensações que o espaço
arquitetónico exerce sobre a perceção do indivíduo. É assente neste princípio que desenvolveremos
as principais premissas do nosso enquadramento teórico.
O estudo desenvolve-se em dois momentos, o primeiro, considera uma bibliografia selecionada,
que fundamenta a base do discurso teórico, e pretende abordar a dimensão sensorial na
Arquitetura e compreender como o Homem vivencia o espaço; o segundo, desenvolve uma
interpretação e reflexão autónoma de obras selecionadas do Arquiteto suíço Peter Zumthor,
através da análise de duas obras da sua autoria, escolhidas pela leitura analítica que permitem ao
tema em debate.
A leitura da bibliografia selecionada permitiu perceber o pensamento dos autores referenciados
que são a base do nosso discurso. Como defende Pallasmaa: “É evidente que uma Arquitetura que
intensifique a vida deve provocar todos os sentidos simultaneamente e fundir a nossa imagem de
indivíduos com a nossa experiência do mundo.”
2 Assim, não obstante o objeto estético ou
funcional, a Arquitetura deve ser sentida de forma a estimular todos os sentidos em simultâneo nos
seus usuários. Cabe aos Arquitetos, incentivar o envolvimento sensorial na prática da Arquitetura,
tendo em conta que, a Arquitetura do espaço, é algo que se concebe e que se cria, tendo a
capacidade de provocar emoções e perceções sensoriais que marcam a identidade de determinado
espaço e lugar. A Arquitetura deve, assim, refletir a sensibilidade do ser humano que a habita e
estabelecer uma relação entre o construído e o Homem no espaço, de forma a aprofundar a íntima
relação das sensações com o objeto arquitetónico.
The present work for obtaining the Master’s degree proposes a theoretical reflection on the way we live the builtspace. In order to consider multisensory Architecture as the basis for our discourse, Juhani Pallasmaa argues that “Every moving experience with architecture is multisensory; the characteristics of space, matter and scale are measured equally by our eyes, ears, nose, skin, tongue, skeleton and muscles. Architecture reinforces the existential experience, our sense of belonging to the world, and this is essentially an experience of reinforcing personal identity. Instead of mere vision, or the classic five senses, Architecture involves different spheres of sensory experience that interact and merge with each other.”3 Thus, this reflection focuses on and analyzes the impact of the sensations that the Architectural space exerts on the individual’s perception. It is bases on this principle that we will develop the main premises of our theoretical framework. The study is developed in two moments, the first one, considering a selected bibliography, which supports the basis of the theoretical discourse, and intends to approach the sensorial dimension in Architecture and understand how man experiences space; the second, develops an autonomous interpretation and reflection of selected works by the Swiss Architect Peter Zumthor, through the analysis of two projects oh his authorship, chosen for the analytical reading that allow the topic under discussion. The reading of the selected bibliography allowed us to understand the thoughts of the referenced authors that are the basis of our discourse. As Pallasmaa defends: “It is evident that an Architecture that intensifies life must provoke all the senses simultaneously and merge our image of individuals with our experience of the world.”4 Thus, regardless of the aesthetic or functional object, Architecture must be felt in order to stimulate all the senses simultaneously in its users. It is up to Architects to encourage sensory involvement in the practice of Architecture, considering that the Architecture of the space is something that is conceived and created, having the ability to provoke emotions and sensory perceptions that mark the identity of a given space and place. Architecture must, therefore, reflect the sensitivity of the human being who inhabits it and establish a relationship between what is built and the man in space, in order to deepen the intimate relationship of sensations with the Architectural object.
