Metaproject as a projectual model

The metaproject is a space for disciplinary reflection and analysis of project research contents. It originates from the necessity of a “knowledge platform” (pack of tools) that sustains and guides the projectual activity in a fluid scenery of constant mutation. Because of its dynamism, the metaproject emerges as a “projectual model” which takes into account all the possible hypothesis in design but that not produces output as a unique projectual model, neither presettled technical solutions. The metaproject, as considered in this article, is an alternative that opposes the customary methodology in design, placing itself as a reflection space and as a support to the project development in a complex and mutable scenery. Key words: metaproject, metadesign, new projectual model, design and complexity, management and complexity.
