Resumo: Articulating town planning history and morphological studies, the paper aims to show the effect of contemporary urbanism in the layout of four Brazilian mid-twentieth century new towns planned from scratch by civil engineers graduated by the Faculty of Engineering, in Curitiba. At that moment urbanism underpinned by an academicist approach, resultant from the Beaux-Arts tradition, and consonant with the planning in the ‘grand manner’, a set of formal ideas drawn from traditional European planning practice, particularly the French, which was spread throughout North America by the City Beautiful movement. The Urbanization Plan for Curitiba co-authored by Alfred Agache in 1943 was an important local reference, especially for the civil engineers regarded in this paper. Thus, morphological elements such as diagonal avenues, tree-lined boulevards, grand views, and the gathering of the main public buildings and their ordered, symmetrical organization convey an artistic approach amid regular, gridiron urban forms, typical of land-speculation enterprises.

Naquele momento o urbanismo ainda era marcado pela visão academicista, tributária da tradição Beaux-Arts e em sintonia como o planejamento em ‘grande estilo’ – um conjunto de ideias formais decorrentes da prática de urbanística europeia, particularmente a francesa, difundidas nos Estados Unidos pelo movimento City Beautiful. O Plano de Urbanização de Curitiba assinado em coautoria por Alfred Agache em 1943 foi uma importante referência local, especialmente para os engenheiros civis tratados neste artigo. Assim, elementos morfológicos como avenidas diagonais, bulevares com árvores enfileiradas, vistas grandiosas, e a reunião de edifícios públicos relevantes e sua organização ordenada e simétrica vão revelar uma abordagem artística em meio a formas urbanas regulares, ortogonais, típicas de empreendimentos de especulação fundiária.Portuguese-Speaking Network of Urban Morphology2017-07-31T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.47235/rmu.v3i1.14oai:ojs2.revistademorfologiaurbana.org:article/14Revista de Morfologia Urbana; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2015): Volume 3 n.1; 19-29Revista de Morfologia Urbana; v. 3 n. 1 (2015): Volume 3 n.1; 19-292182-7214reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttp://revistademorfologiaurbana.org/index.php/rmu/article/view/14https://doi.org/10.47235/rmu.v3i1.14http://revistademorfologiaurbana.org/index.php/rmu/article/view/14/13Leão Rego, RenatoRibeiro, Taissa SessakTaub, Jaquelineinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-09-06T09:36:48Zoai:ojs2.revistademorfologiaurbana.org:article/14Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:34:22.985386Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
