The construction industry is one of the largest sectors in Brazil, with high rates of non-professional labor covering a large percentage of urban construction, conceived without the supervision of a technical professional, such as an architect or engineer. The high costs associated with construction lead a large segment of society to seek alternatives for building their homes. Throughout this process, these individuals acquire informal technical knowledge in the construction field; however, the lack of specific design and planning leads to problems such as poorly utilized, dimly lit, and poorly ventilated spaces, a lack of alternatives for material use, unnecessary demolitions, and extended construction timelines that generate expenses and unforeseen issues.
On March 16 at 10:00 AM, Belas Artes will host the inaugural lecture for its Professional Master’s Program in Architecture, Urbanism, and Design.

Centered on the theme "From Taller Total to Participatory Design," the lecture will feature contributions from Professor Sylvia Adriana Dobry Pronsato, PhD, of FIAMFAAM, and Professor Wilson Caracol Ribeiro dos Santos Jr., PhD, of PUC-Campinas.
This course offers a historical overview of the development of digital communication technologies and their relationship with urban space.

Drawing on the theme "In Project" from the 11th Architecture Biennial, the firm SIAA Arquitetos Associados reflects on the possibility of alternative relationships between architectural design, built space, and public occupation over time, whether anticipated or not. To this end, the firm uses the Centro Cultural São Paulo building—designed by architects Eurico Prado Lopes and Luiz Telles—as the foundation for its reflection, and not by chance. Following a period of immersion in the diverse uses that this space anticipates and enables, this exhibition presents a graphic record developed by the architects at SIAA. The work seeks not only to highlight what is already present in the daily life of the CCSP but also to make explicit the potential of its spaces and uses—whether programmed or appropriated—positioning the building as a powerhouse of cultural management and an architectural and urban object.
In this seminar, Sinaenco proposes an analysis of the challenges involved in implementing the BIM Agenda in Brazil, considering the expectation that the methodology will be widespread in public works within 10 years. Starting in 2021, certain federal government agencies are expected to require BIM for the development of architectural and engineering models.
Founded in 2016 by three architecture and urbanism students—Matheus Pereira, Ellen Corrêa, and Yasmim Amorim—driven by a desire to analyze urban space and engage in a deeper discussion about São Paulo's architecture and its layers, the project was born from a desire to inspire architecture and urbanism students, as well as those interested in the field, to develop a new perception of space through the observation of the city and the places we inhabit daily, which often go unnoticed despite their significance.
