Abstract
Since 2011, a Teaching Innovation Project known as "Territories under Transformation Laboratory. Experiences and process in landscape", has been underway at the Granada Architecture School. This project proposes working on the architectures and the landscapes that affect the individual from various perspectives by using analytical tools as well as different methods of approximation and graphic recording.The aim of this teaching experience, among others, is to carry out the task representing territories by including physical and geographical aspects that have to do with the memory, meaning and toponymy of places, all of which are mapped from a broad cultural point of view. Graphic representation is a valuable recording tool and it provides knowledge of the territory under consideration. It includes personal and collective experiences as well as interpretations of the space that the individual inhabits.This project lays out a series of initiatives in order to navigate the hidden cartographies of places, ranging from aspects that have to do with the memory of their landscapes to their transformation processes and their identities. Each graphic representation is a new cartography of the territory that allows for the mapping of the place through experiences connected to it. It is not only a drawing, it is the result of a series of choices that abstractly consider and classify content. These maps respond to a representation of space through signs as a way of approximation and knowledge.
