The present work is a design project which objective is to present the creation of jewels inspired in architectural elements from the facade of Teatro Alberto Maranhão, located at Ribeira neighborhood in Natal. Initially, it was made a research on the history of jewels in order to recognize the symbolism of this artifact through history, as well to understand its importance to ancient civilizations, and developed techniques; a brief research over the gems from the region of RN and the types of lapidation; a research over materials and processes in jewellery; and lastly a mapping of 30 buildings at the Historical Center in the city of Natal, in which Teatro Alberto Maranhão was chosen. This work follows an adaptation of Bruno Munari’s methodology and Renata Rubim’s projectual process for creating patterns through surface design, based on architectural elements indentified in the theater's facade by using photographical boards. The route's conclusion resulted in the creation of patterns, created through replication of shapes found in the building's facade, with posterior applications in jewelry pieces.
