Redefining urban building
This article views the urban building as a product of the" art of edifying", engaged in its cultural and social dimensions. This conductive stream allows us to understand that the building can be defined under the anthropological dimension beyond the rule utilitas, firmitas, and venustas (utility, stability, and beauty) defended by the roman architect Vitruvius; this is the condition which allows the creation of mechanisms that contribute to the necessary approximation between architecture and society, which should be expressed in design, execution, and the appropriation of space. As such, we investigate the urban building as an object resulting from a set of cultural and informational actions, from social interactions, and from symbolic significance. The conclusion leads us to look at the urban building as an informational medium - a technical device filled with information, which expresses artistic, environmental, scientific, technical, social, economic, political and historical interrelations; and whose tectonicity shelters social relations and practices and manifests society's world vision.
