Eduardo Sacriste (Buenos Aires, 1905 – Tucumán, 1999) exerceu durante toda sua vida profissional a dupla atividade de mestre e arquiteto. Sua obra é abrangente, incluindo diversos programas: projetos urbanísticos, universidades, hospitais, escolas, bancos, edifícios de habitação coletiva e casas unifamiliares, realizados em diversas províncias da Argentina. Mas foi na província de Tucumán, ao noroeste da Argentina, onde trabalhou a maior parte da sua vida. Foi também em Tucumán onde Eduardo Sacriste explorou em maior profundidade o tema que melhor representa sua arquitetura, sendo este o projeto da casa unifamiliar. O presente trabalho de pesquisa tem como objetivo principal o estudo sistemático de um grupo de sete projetos de casas unifamiliares construídas pelo arquiteto Sacriste entre os anos de 1940 e 1980, localizadas tanto na zona rural quanto na zona urbana da referida província argentina. Até o presente momento, o material publicado acerca destas construções, além de pouco difundido no exterior, é escasso e disperso mesmo no país de origem. Pretende-se com este trabalho organizar e ampliar os estudos preexistentes, com o redesenho dos planos de cada obra, na tentativa de contribuir com uma apresentação gráfica que permita um melhor estudo analítico e comparativo destas casas, divulgando, também em língua portuguesa, a obra de Eduardo Sacriste. / Eduardo Sacriste (Buenos Aires, 1905 - Tucumán, 1999) exercised throughout his professional life the dual activity of teacher and architect. His work is vast, including several programs: urban projects, universities, hospitals, schools, banks, collective housing buildings and single-family homes, constructed in several provinces of Argentina. But was in the Province of Tucumán, in northwestern Argentina, where he has worked in most part of his life. It was also in Tucumán where Eduardo Sacriste explored in greater depth the theme that best represents his architecture, which is the design of single-family homes. This research work aims to a systematic study of a group of seven projects of single-family homes built by Sacriste between the years 1940 and 1980, located both in rural and in urban areas of that Argentine province. Till now, the published material about these constructions, besides poorly widespread outside, is scarce and dispersed even in the country of origin. This work also aim to organize and expand the existing studies, with the redesign of the plans of each project, in an attempt to contribute with a graphical presentation that allows a better analytical and comparative study of these houses, spreading, also in Portuguese, the work of Eduardo Sacriste.

A Reexamination of the Development of the Late Preceramic Complex Society through the Radiocarbon Dates and Archaeological Researches in Casma ValleyIn many aspects, the preceramic sites of Casma are typical of preceramic occupations in other parts of Peru. Nevertheless, the beginnings of nondomestic or monumental architecture are present at the Casma sites of Tortugas and Huaynuna. In addition, at the site of Huaynuna there is evidence of an "aceramic" occupation that coexisted with the first settlements associated with ceramics in the Early Formative or Initial Period. The existence of aceramic sites in Casma called attention to other sites that, though lacking ceramics, have radiocarbon dates later than 1800 a.C., that is, during the time period typically considered as the Early Formative. This realization has implications with respect to the maritime hypothesis and the development of complex society along the Peruvian coast. / En muchos aspectos, los sitios precerámicos de Casma son típicos de las ocupaciones precerámicas del resto del Perú. Sin embargo, en los sitios de Tortugas y Huaynuná de Casma se encuentran los inicios de la arquitectura no doméstica o monumental. Además, en el sitio de Huaynuná tambien hay evidencia de una ocupación "acerámica" que coexistía con los primeros asentamientos con cerámica del Periodo Inicial o Formativo Temprano. El reconocimiento de los sitios acerámicos en Casma llamó la atención a otros sitios que, aunque carecen de cerámica, tienen fechados radiocarbónicos después de 1800 a.C., es decir durante lo que típicamente se consideraba como el Formativo Temprano. Este hallazgo tiene implicaciones con respecto a la hipótesis marítima y el desarrollo de la sociedad compleja en la costa peruana.

Le présent travail aborde l'architecture domestique de la côte syrienne à l'âge du Bronze récent. L’architecture domestique a certes déjà donné lieu à de nombreux travaux sur les sites côtiers, mais notre étude vise à réétudier entièrement l’importante documentation que compte cette région, objet de nombreux travaux archéologiques, notamment ces dernières années. Nous avons travaillé sur les constructions domestiques au sens large du terme : les maisons en elles-mêmes, ainsi que les installations domestiques, que l’on pourrait qualifier de secondaires, telles que certains espaces de travail et lieux de stockage (lorsque ceux-ci sont directement rattachés aux habitations). Nous avons aussi étudié en profondeur la question des installations sanitaires, éléments complémentaires dans la composition architecturale. Notre travail s’est penché aussi sur les tombes qui constituaient en effet un élément architectural intégré à la maison.Nous avons comparé les maisons de la côte syrienne datant du Bronze récent afin de mettre en évidence les analogies et les différences existant dans la construction de ces bâtiments. Nous les avons comparés avec certains bâtiments situés sur l’Euphrate. L’objectif de ces comparaisons était aussi de mettre au jour l’image propre des maisons des sites de la côte syrienne au regard des maisons de la même période, mais construites dans d’autres régions. / This research addresses the domestic architecture of the Syrian Coast during the Late Bronze Age. This subject has already given many scientific works about numerous archaeological sites. Our study aims at a full revaluation of the considerable literature about this area which has been the subject of many archaeological works, particularly during the last years.We have studied the domestic buildings, in the broad sense of the terms: houses, but also household installations that someone would describe as side effects, such as workings areas and stocking places (when they are completely united with the dwelling houses). We have deeply studied the matter of the sanitary appliances which are additional complement in the constructions. Our study has also examined the burials: they are architectural pieces of family houses.In our study we have tried comparison with the various houses of the Syrian Coast in the Late Bronze Age in order to give prominence to the analogies and differences which appear in the erections of private. We have also compared these buildings with those found on the Euphrate River. The subject of these comparisons was to update the specific characteristics of the houses of the Syrian Coast when you compare them with private houses of the same period, but in other areas.

This thesis examines domestic service practises among some members of the Yorkshire gentry during the nineteenth century. Historians usually consider the gentry to have shared the same social outlooks and practises as other members of the upper class in spite of significant differences in income and political power. However, as they were less well-to-do, they could not afford to maintain the variety of servants a wealthy aristocrat could. Three main families were selected to reflect the range of incomes and possession or lack thereof of a hereditary title: the Listers of Shibden Hall, the Sykes of Sledmere House and the Pennymans of Ormesby Hall. The Yorkshire gentry organised country houses servants along the same hierarchical lines as prescriptive authors suggested because this gave servants clear paths for promotion which reduced the frequency of staff turnover; furthermore the architecture of their country houses promoted such organization. Secondly, this architecture reinforced the domestic social positions of every rung of the domestic hierarchy. As part of a unique subgroup of the upper class, gentry ladies were less likely to experience class conflict with servants clearly placed within the domestic service hierarchy. The conclusion is that through selective recruitment processes, the distinctive work environment and a particular labour pool, this group created a unique labour market tailored to their social and economic standing.

Les fouilles archéologiques effectuées entre 1986 et 1987 sur le terrain Théologitis, au centre du village moderne de Limenas et au coeur de la ville antique de Thasos, ont permis de mettre au jour les vestiges partiels d’une habitation de l’époque romaine. De cette maison, trois pièces ont été fouillées, parmi lesquelles une grande salle rectangulaire contenant une mosaïque de sol conservée dans un état exceptionnel. Notre étude se consacre à l’analyse de ces trois pièces, pour en préciser la fonction et la chronologie, et pour placer cet ensemble architectural dans le paysage urbain de Thasos à l’époque romaine. La première partie de cette recherche est consacrée à l’histoire de Thasos et à la place occupée par les relations économiques et politiques de cette cité dans le nord de la Grèce, mais aussi ailleurs en Méditerranée. La seconde partie traite de l’évolution architecturale de la maison grecque et romaine en Grèce, dont les modifications et l’utilisation de l’espace ont souvent été influencées par des pratiques étrangères. Enfin, la troisième partie porte sur l’analyse de la maison du terrain Théologitis et la fonction des pièces fouillées, en comparant notamment les vestiges découverts avec ceux des autres maisons romaines mises au jour dans l’île. / Archaeological excavations carried out on the Theologitis field between 1986 and 1987, located in the centre of the modern village of Limenas and in the heart of the ancient city of Thasos, have brought to light the partial remains of a dwelling from the Roman period. From this house, three rooms were excavated, including a large rectangular room containing a floor mosaic preserved in exceptional condition. Our study is devoted to the analysis of these three rooms, in order to clarify their function and chronology, and to place this structure in the urban landscape of Thasos during the Roman period. The first part of this research is devoted to the history of Thasos and the place occupied by the city in the economic and political relations in northern Greece, but also elsewhere in the Mediterranean. The second part deals with the architectural development of Greek and Roman houses, in Greece, which were often influenced by foreign practices. Finally, the third part deals with the analysis of the house uncovered in the Theologitis plot and the function of the excavated rooms, by comparing the remains discovered with those of other Roman houses unearthed on the island.

Needlework has been practiced throughout history, across the nation of Sweden and the world, primarily by women within the home. In recent years a revival of the craft has been seen worldwide, the covid lockdown and an aging population being two factors contributing to this. Historically there’s been a duality to the practice of needlework. On one hand, it’s been a means of oppression, and on the other hand, it's been a weapon of resistance and a source of joy, creativity, and collectivity. It has, throughout history, proven to be a political, social and creative tool and, as argued in this thesis, a spatial tool. The practice of needlework allows for the artisan to travel between different spheres. This thesis sets out to explore the potential of moving between private and public, performing a public domesticity through, for example, knitting.  Needlework is, in its nature, slow. This slowness, the repetitive movements of the hands and the touching of tactile materials emphasizes the process of making and prompts reflections and emotions. This thesis argues that methods of needlework as, for example, layering, mending, joining, ripping, and patching, clearly connect to the architectural design process. These methods emphasize notions of care and maintenance. The thesis uses an interdisciplinary approach to investigate needlework as both the topic of research and the means of spatial exploration and representation, aiming to underpin the relevance of engaging with needlework in the architectural design process, as a way of maintaining the craft and learning new things. Rooms devoted to the practice of needlework haven't appeared in a building plan for many years. The design proposal, presented in the report, aims to explore the possibility of these spaces reappearing within the public sphere. The proposal is placed within the context of Sweden with no specific site intended. Proposing a space of appearance (term coined by Hannah Arendt in her theory of Plurality) actualized through the collective making of the syjunta (sewing circle). Creating a public syrum (sewing room)  where the practice of needlework and its practitioners can appear, connected to ideas of feminist architectural practice to make the everyday visible. The thesis project engages with needlework by seeing it as a collective act of taking and making space.

This thesis explores the domestic designs produced in Canterbury, New Zealand, by the architectural firm of Collins and Harman between 1883 and 1927. Architects John James Collins (1855 – 1933) and Richard Dacre Harman (1859 – 1927) were partners in the firm founded in Christchurch by William Barnett Armson (1833 – 1883) in 1870. Like many New Zealand architects practicing at the turn of twentieth century, Collins and Harman worked amidst a climate of major social and economic transformation, yet they managed to navigate these transitions with their personal connections and respected positions within the local architectural profession. From Collins and Harman’s surviving architectural drawings and office records, the firm’s ability to design residences in accordance with its clients’ wishes is evaluated. The methods with which they carried out designs, transacted business and secured future clients are also considered. The social standing of the firm’s clientele is emphasised to highlight the tight-knit nature of architectural patronage in Canterbury during this period. In order to assess the firm’s contribution to the development of domestic architecture in New Zealand, the local architectural profession, the firm’s reputation, and the effects that its built designs had on its clients and the local community are also investigated. While their major public and commercial designs are included in general surveys of New Zealand architecture, Collins and Harman tend to be overlooked as domestic architects in comparison with better-known contemporaries such as Samuel Hurst Seager and Cecil Wood. In catering to the requirements of a diverse clientele, the firm adopted varied approaches in its designs, which illustrate a more complex evolution than the linear progression usually found in standard architectural historical methodologies. Divided chronologically into four distinct periods, the thesis focuses on key commissions to chart the firm’s development over forty-four years within the context of the evolution of domestic architecture in Canterbury. The diversity in its domestic work engendered by the firm’s professionalism demonstrates that Collins and Harman made a substantial and vital contribution in the development of domestic architecture in Canterbury.

Ce mémoire est une exploration du thème de l'utilisation de l'argile en architecture domestique et publique en Grèce Antique. À travers un inventaire de sites archéologiques, nous examinerons les différents vestiges présents qui démontrent l'utilisation de l'argile dans l'architecture, par exemple dans la production de briques d'argiles crues et dans les élévations en terre compactée. Ces vestiges sont très peu représentés archéologiquement et nous explorerons les raisons et questionnements amenés par cette faible présence. / This thesis is an exploration about the use of earth, more precisely clay, in domestic and public architecture in ancient Greece. In a first time, we will review some publications about clay and the different uses that was made of it during Antiquity. Then, we will present some archaeological sites that show remains in clay, more precisely wall architecture of mud-brick, and adobe. This kind of remains is really rare in Greek archaeology, and through this thesis we will see why, try to solve some questions about it, and finally, talk about the future and conservation of these remains.

Na revista Casa e Jardim, nos anos 1950, constitui-se uma arquitetura voltada à classe média, a que chamamos bem viver, que analisamos nesta tese. Em seu desenho, está presente a linguagem moderna, que é transmitida aos leitores de forma didática. Essa arquitetura aparece como cenário para um cotidiano confortável, com a ajuda da técnica e dos novos produtos, que estão disponíveis naqueles anos. Estes promovem uma grande renovação nos hábitos e costumes da classe média urbana brasileira, tendo os Estados Unidos e a vida americana como modelos. O contexto onde surge o bem viver é o da modernização brasileira, particularmente da metrópole paulistana, com transformações econômicas, sociais, políticas e culturais. / In Casa e Jardim magazine in the 1950s, arises an architecture for the middle class, which we call \"good living\", whose analysis is our core issue. It uses the modern language, which is transmitted to readers in a didactic way. This architecture appears as the setting for a comfortable routine with the help of technique and new products, which are available in those years. These products promote a major renovation in the habits and customs of the Brazilian urban middle class, with the United States and American life as models. The context where it arises the \"good life\" is the Brazilian modernization, particularly the metropolis of São Paulo, with economic, social, political and cultural transformations.
