SUMMARY:

This thesis works, as investigation object, the urban design process, performed by architecture and urbanism graduation course students of Universidade Federal da Paraíba, during project workshops, offered for this purpose. Adopt as research question: Which are the urban design specificities, as design process; how designers understand and practice the urban design; still, how they seen their own desgin experience; considering the adopted context? Assumes as hypothesis, that urban design process has specificities; that, in adopted cutout, designs, are predominantly, generated taking previous experiences, than methodological strategies that aim tools for design process, looking for solution and final products, instead design problem and process; so, a less reflexive practice, without knowing clearly the concept, topics and contexts inherent to urban design, and with most technocratic approach than methodological. The goal is to identify which are the urban design specificities through confrontation, in one side, theoretical-methodological approach of rational problem solving and reflection in action, and in other side, design process analysis developed in project workshops with training designers, specifically the architecture and urbanism graduation course of Universidade Federal da Paraíba, aiming to understand the urban design practice, using comparison of urban and architectural designs; and secondly, how this designers approaches their own project process, and how they understand and experience urban design. The research is structured by three Investigation Axis, to know: Axis 1 – Positioning of designers about their own project process; Axis 2 – Understanding and practice of urban design; Axis 3 – Comparison between practices of urban and architectural design. The method gets backing in the rational problem solution by Simon (2019), with counterpoint in reflection in action by Schön (1983), both as argued by Dorst & Dijkhuis (1995); in association with design workshop and focal group as data collect strategies. The thesis is based in theoretical-analitical discussions about urban design, design process in general, mapping methods, and design workshop as design practice facilitator. As outcomes, some specificities of urban design, as design process, are presented, from the comparison of architectural design practice. This has a more analytical, strategic, methodological, constructive and immaterial character; meanwhile the second one, has a more analytical, solution aimed, practical and material. In adopted outcut, is possible to identify reflexive practices of design, knowing of concept and aspects of urban design practice, also as, the designers approaches their own design process critically.
