During the past five years, Proyectos en Inglés has been a space for
testing new social and cultural approaches to Architectural Design within an
English language teaching frame. The Architectural Projects in English curriculum
focuses on future spatial and theoretical discourses on our way of living.
Architects should play a leading role in the redefinition of our contemporary
environments and their adaptation to current necessities. Communication becomes
a critical element if we want to share this knowledge with the world and the
English language is the main key to interaction in our globalised context.
With this volume, our
editorial goal has been the assemblage of the different experiences lived
at Francisco de Vitoria University, for their preservation as a living
memory of the interesting conclusions that emerge from the interrelations of
the diverse work contained herein. The curriculum has involved
instructors of Architectural Projects and English Linguistics from the School
of Architecture and the Graduate Department of Languages, respectively, under
the direction of the former. As the last responsible for the program, I regard
its successful ending as an opportunity to revise all the experimentation
undertaken and display the clues to understand it.
This Is Tomorrow is a
bilingual edition with its contents in English and its main indicators in
Spanish. The work is organized chronologically, divided between the two
different studios carried out: Concepts and Materials, led by Camila Aybar, and
Housing Studies, directed by myself. Each of these parts presents the
theoretical ideas from the instructors of the courses and some relevant
practice from their workshops. A final signature shows the links with other
curriculums of the School of Architecture or of different universities, as one
of the main characteristics of Proyectos en Inglés lies in its
interdisciplinary approach.
This book has been
made possible due to the generous contribution of the faculty and students involved
in the curriculum. As editorial assistant, Luz Sempere accomplished the
laborious task of collecting and archiving the work of the past five years,
while also contributing to design issues. Daniela del Olmo, the Director of the
Language Department, and Fernando Canal, the Vice-rector of International
Relations, always encouraged this realization, and, of course, nothing ever
happens in the School of Architecture without the enthusiastic support of Dean
Felipe Samarán.
