| Within the scope of teaching in subjects that use the LBP method (Learning By Projects), this experience proposes to enrich the traditional workshop work with didactic complements of approximation to reality and involvement with the object of study. The first one is focused on the STATEMENT AND THE CREATIVE PROCESS. In order to select the topic of work, needs are traced to generate a direct relationship between classroom work and reality. We avoid simulation and offer the effort, energy and talent of the students of an architectural projects course to a cause for which they can be useful. Without forgetting that the creative process is not only nourished by emotional complicity and social commitment; in this way the quality of the aesthetic result is worked on in the workshop with experimental exercises that try to stimulate the students' spatial awareness and creativity. The final objective of the course is to consolidate, through practice, the resolution of the architectural project. The proposed exercises are abstractions of reality, but if these are involved with the territory and its people the results improve considerably, becoming richer, more complex and useful.
