Abstract

The source of knowledge from an industry based on risks (aerospace) to another leading the production of habitable terrestrial places is necessary to illustrate the democratic function of architecture. Consequently, the purpose of this article is to determine how that dynamic is the liberating action of the profession through analyzing the concepts of Authenticity, Polychromy, Precision, Responsivity and Habitability (seminal aerospace strategies) applied to architectural planning. As a result, it was discovered the Originary Principles, intangible elements (information) and tangible ones (shapers) that establish architecture as one of the fields able to expand intellectual freedom.
