Abstract:
The present work has as object of study eight single family homes, Abstract
designed in the 1960s, by the self-taught architect and training engineer
Geraldino Duda, in the city of Campina Grande. Best known for the
important public works of the Severino Cabral Municipal Theater, Duda
also had a great contribution to the diffusion of the modern movement
in the city of through the various residential works projected by the same
in the 1960s. The research aims to find out the role of its production,
as a constituent part of the history of Campina Grande, and to extract
from its work the design guidelines used. It is well known that modern
heritage, especially the residential heritage, has been lost by stride
and that preservation policies are still very fragile in several aspects.
Thus, it is intended to document, expose and analyze this sample of
works, as a way of encouraging its recognition and importance as
material heritage. The study is the result of research that was carried
out by the Research Group Architecture and Place, through the line
HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE AND MODERN CITY FORM CG, of
which the author also acts as researcher. The large amount of material
and information collected made possible the reflections that will be
exposed. Two methodologies were adopted, the first of which is to use
primary sources, such as public and private archives; And on secondary
sources such as libraries and virtual network. The second is focused on
the analysis of architectural design. The theoretical framework is based
on authors such as Serra (2006), Gastón and Rovira (2007), Segawa
(1997), Mahfuz (2002), Amorim (2004), Queiroz e Rocha (2006),
Afonso (2006), Almeida and Carvalho (2010), Tinem and Cotrim
