Abstract

This research project is a celebration and an innovation. A celebration in the sense of commemorating the order given by King John III, in mid XVI century, to André de Resende to translate Alberti’s De re aedicatoria to the Portuguese language.
An innovation in the sense of producing, for the first time, an
intelligent computational environment to understand the cultural
impact of this treatise on classical architecture in Portugal and abroad.
Research developes in six approaches: Alberti and the De re
aedicatoria; New digital technologies; Grammar of sacred spaces;
Grammar of column systematization; Architecture for a modern
humanism; The virtual reality of Albertian Architecture.
