Abstract
[Resumen] En 1964 se organizó un concurso nacional de proyectos para la Iglesia Nacional Presbiteriana en la recién inaugurada capital de Brasil, Brasilia. El proyecto ganador, realizado por los arquitectos Ubirajara Motta Lima Ribeiro y Sergio A.B. Machado, presenta excelentes cualidades arquitectónicas, inventiva composición y una inteligente racionalización de la solución constructiva. Si se hubiera construido sería, sin duda, una obra maestra. La simplicidad de resultados se apoya en una gama limitada de elementos constructivos, que sin embargo llegarían a aportar una relevante complejidad a los espacios arquitectónicos, cuyo diseño atiende adecuadamente a la carga simbólica de un espacio congregacional y sagrado. Este articulo se propone estudiar un poco más ese proyecto moderno, recuperando digitalmente su diseño y sugiriendo posibles interpretaciones arquitectónicas y teóricas considerando las diversas escalas, desde la condición urbana a los detalles y aspectos tectónicos.
[Abstract] In 1964 a national design competition for the Presbyterian National Church was organized in the newly inaugurated capital of Brazil, Brasilia. The winning project by architects Ubirajara Motta Lima Ribeiro and Sergio A.B. Machado, shows excellent architectural qualities, inventive composition and an intelligent rationalization of the constructive solution. If it had been built it would be a masterpiece. The simplicity of results is based on a limited range of constructive elements, which nevertheless would bring significant complexity to the architectural spaces, whose design is adequately attentive to the symbolic burden of a congregational and sacred space. This article will briefly study this modern project, digitally recovering its design, suggesting possible architectural and theoretical interpretations considering its different scales, from the urban site to the details and other tectonic features.
