VLC arquitectura Vol. 6, Issue 1 (April 2019): 67-95. ISSN: 2341-3050. https://doi.org/10.4995/vlc.2019.10967 Resumen: El arquitecto americano Paul Rudolph (1918-1997) concede al dibujo un papel central en su proceso creativo, que responde a una concepción altamente emocional de la arquitectura. Durante su formación y sus primeros años de trabajo, adquiere un tipo de representación que le permite transmitir una visión personal del proyecto. Su constante inquietud por la superación del estilo internacional, parte de seis factores determinantes: emplazamiento, condiciones naturales, materiales, función, psicología del espacio y espíritu de la época, que le guían en la búsqueda de respuestas y marcan su obra hasta finales de los años sesenta, cuando alcanza su madurez creativa. Tomando el dibujo como eje de la investigación, se analiza cómo intervienen estos factores en sus proyectos residenciales en Florida, cuya tectónica concibe desde la unidad espacial; en sus proyectos de vivienda colectiva, cuya componente social orienta en agrupaciones modulares urbanas; y en sus proyectos de escala monumental, cuya materialidad imagina y define con precisión. En todos ellos, las decisiones espaciales y constructivas están tan íntimamente relacionadas con su método de representación, que establecen un paralelismo constante entre dibujar y construir.

Para ello, muchos arquitectos, partiendo de las enseñanzas de Wright y de los maestros europeos emi- grados, propusieron un espacio doméstico flexible y abierto a su entorno, donde poder reencontrar el contacto con el paisaje. Se trataba Palabras clave de poner de nuevo la casa en relación con la tierra, o así lo entendió Paul Rudolph en las viviendas que ideó para Florida, un entorno que comenzabaPaul a establecerse como lugar vacacional del americano medio.

  • Paul Rudolph's Art & Architecture (A&A) Building, Completed In
    Renovation of Rudolph’s Art & Architecture Building at Yale Paul Rudolph’s Art & Architecture (A&A) building, completed in 1963, is undergoing a significant renovation and addition as part of the $500 million Yale University Arts Campus renovation and expan- sion plan. Built to house the combined School of Art and Architecture, the building is centrally located in the Arts Campus and marks the corner of Chapel and York Streets. The School of Art became independent in 1970 and relocated to its own building in 2000. The renova- tion comes at time when the appreciation for the A&A, and Rudolph’s work as a whole is at an all time high. The improvements to the A&A is the second major renovation of an iconic architectural work on Yale’s campus fol- lowing the renovation of the Yale Art Gallery designed by Louis Kahn, which reopened in December 2006. Despite the differences between the Art & Architecture Buidling, minimalist loft-like gallery and the spatially complex Brutalism of the Yale University, New Haven, CT (photo: Hilary Sample) A&A building, both renovations focus on two critical aspects of the architecture, its performance and surface.

  • History of the Siesta and Nokomis Beach Pavilions
    Siesta and Nokomis Beach Pavilions Historic Context Sarasota's barrier islands, or keys, have attracted human habitation for centuries. Current traffic congestion and full parking lots at any of the keys' beaches on a sunny day attests to their continuing popularity as places of habitation and recreation. Archeological sites on Siesta and Casey Key reveal evidence of human long before white settlers arrived. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, these islands were sparsely inhabited, sometimes by fishermen who caught fish for sale in local markets and to passing vessels. Factors that contributed to sparse settlement on the barrier islands were the lack of arable farmland, lack of bridge access from the mainland, and mosquitoes. From the 1800s to well into the 1900s, Siesta Key was known by a variety of names, including "Little Sarasota Key" and "Sarasota Key." The formation of the Siesta Land Company in 1907 by Harry Higel, Captain Louis Roberts (who had opened Roberts Hotel the previous year) and E.M. Arbogast marked the first attempt to develop the key. On the north end of the key, the Company platted "Siesta on the Gulf," 1 dredged bayous, and built docks. Harry Higel operated the Siesta Post Office and built the Higelhurst Hotel. Few people moved to the key, however, (the 1910 US census listed thirty-one residents) and not until the first bridge opened in 19172 did the advertising effort result in increased use of the beaches by Sarasota residents and tourists. The name "Siesta" gradually came to be applied to the whole key and by 1952 it was officially Siesta Key.
