Architecture for Dignity.
Architecture, space of meaning, dignity, identity and belonging.
Assuming architectural work as a form of meaning that will provide the individual with belonging, and architecture as a fundamental factor in the construction of the individual's identity and dignity, I seek to discuss throughout the work how the construction of the subject's meaning and its introduction took place by metaphysics, in the construction of thought, formed by the Eurocentric worldview and how this construction affects our understanding of space and time. I seek, through the works of Kant, Freud and Heidegger, to formulate a discussion on the issue of the subject and individuality as it is understood and designed, within the Western cultural vision and how these significant constructions interfere in the perception of time and space. Next, the subject's relationship with the world in which he is inserted is discussed, I seek to understand the relationships of how the subject's experience and experience of the world is seen, how experiences and the construction of the psyche correlate with the notions of freedom and human dignity. At the end of this work, I seek to discuss how the construction of the thought of the self occurs in relation to space, going through the works, mainly by Heidegger and Norberg-Schulz. I seek to argue how the construction of the self occurs together and in relation to the world in which it is inserted and how architecture plays a fundamental role in the construction of existential spaces of significance for the formation of the individual, as a being that belongs and is inseparable from the space in which it is located, which it inhabits, this being the built space, the raw material of architecture.
