Abstract

The article proposes questions about which the authors aspire to update the reflection on the “design culture”. It discusses how new digital technologies advance in modeling processes, simulation, prototyping and digital fabrication in the last two decades. An alert is made regarding the critical studies on its benefits and limitations, since they are not solutions, but design production means. Ponderations are presented on the academic research-based, at least partially, in the design practice, considering two assessment indicators in this area: the historic /historiographical indicator – of textual nature – and the design indicator, imagenary in its nature. The text goes on suggesting to think about the architectural education from the experience perspective, putting in evidence that the Design Practice relationship is inherent in the design doing. As a disciplinary knowledge, the architectural project demands, necessarily, an interdisciplinary approach.
