Abstract
The Communication referred to alternative approaches to the traditional process of developing the architectural project. Today, associations are implementing actions that combine creative pedagogy and democratic participation. As promoters of values close to popular education, the founders of these structures often have tracks of activists and activists. They operate on small scales that allow people to have greater control over the project in the context of actions involving few resources. These practices have emerged in the socialisation process that has accompanied the field of architecture since the 1960s. The arrival of social sciences in the Schools of Architecture helped to take a fresh look at the issue of customs. The field of architectural programming has, for example, made it possible to formalise methods for drawing up specifications which take greater account of usage (Mercier -Zetlaoui-Leger 2009). Over time, new terms have emerged in the language of professionals, such as the concept of ‘proficiency in use’, which speaks of the interest for the inhabitant and his role in the process of manufacturing architecture. The question then arose for architects as to whether inhabitants are able to understand shape and design. It is in response to this that architects have developed participatory and pedagogical experiments.
