Authenticity and Sustainability

Abstract

To think authenticity, the cultural identity and social economic and environmental sustainability is to reflect on the values ​​and actions that must be developed to strengthen the identity of the regions. They are inseparable components with an impact on the organization of the territory and architecture that affect everyday life and the means and modes of production. To avoid the destruction of secular structures of territorial organization, it is necessary to have a critical awareness of the heritage, to question the cultural values ​​and the symbolic contents that define the ways of being of the populations. Action strategies have been creating tourism networks, rebuilding constructions. We only see effects of a formal contaminated recovery process. Intervention methodologies have to create dynamics that make regions attractive to live, providing quality of life and meaning to the collective future. As case study on rehabilitation in vernacular architecture we present Outeiro da Vinha, Portugal.
