XAVIER, Sandra. The uses of rurality in landscape architecture . Etnográfica [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.1, pp.165-188. ISSN 0873-6561.
In this article, I will focus on the landscape architecture projects of João Gomes da Silva using Richard Handlers concept of cultural objectification. João Gomes da Silva is a follower of the landscape architecture school of Francisco Caldeira Cabral and uses rural typologies as elements representing the identity of the place in public and private gardens, and in public and urban spaces. He is also influenced by the architect Álvaro Siza Vieira and by the Inquérito à Arquitectura Popular em Portugal, paying particular attention to the folk modes of constructing the landscape. In his projects, these folk modes are shown as representative elements of the culture of the place and they are aesthetically valued as such.
