Originated from the miscegenation between indigenous fishermen and Portuguese settlers 300 years ago, the Caiçara’s communities have been adapting their cultural heritage to the needs and existing inputs of the environment, resulting in a specific way of living. They live in geographically isolated settlements between the mountains and the sea of Rio de Janeiro southern and São Paulo northern coasts. In the Juatinga’s Peninsula, a difficult access area located 20 kilometers south of the city of Paraty, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, approximately 1,500 people distributed in 12 small communities live

nowadays on the edge of legality, occupying a current Ecological Reserve land. In short, their occupations consist mostly in fishing and agricultural activities, which are reverted to their own survival.

oretical texts demonstrating the relation of Caiçara population with the landscape, determining directly their patterns of behaviour, occupation, displacement and orientation. Particularly , two theoretical texts - “The Phenomenon of Place” by Christian Norberg-Schulz and “Prospects for a Critical Regionalism” by Kenneth Frampton - performed an important role in this project. Taking into account the recent alterations in territorial zoning and the expansion of urban culture in disfavor of traditional villages, Caiçaras Territories proposes a set of design strategies that express those transformations and function as mediators of these cultural conflicts.

Symbolic Territory x Functional Territory

Firstly, this study consist in link the technical analysis with the-

Could traditional settlements respond more directly to the demands of political, geographical and territorial transformations and the ever-increasing pressure from urban centers?

Juatinga’s Peninsula Surrounded by the Rio - São Paulo axis, a singular geography has become the last refuge of a traditional culture.

THE LIVED LANDSCAPE AS A SUPPORT OF MEANING Seeing the villages as ‘phenomenological details’ of the landscape becomes an important strategy for the comprehension of the regional identity, for at the same time in which it refers to the physical territorial composition it is also the generator of a cultural image, since these are anthropologi-

cal and architectonic responses to the circumventing environment. Thus the landscape establishes two different and complementary relations with the caiçaras villages: The first as structuring element, for it defines parameters for occupation and survival along the years; and the second as a ‘frame’, since it ‘intensifies the difference’ in terms of values between the surrounding and architecture.
