Habitar no Pici: a construção de um projeto do e para o território

Abstract

The present work aims to develop an architectural project capable of keeping up with the transformations that the Pici polygon will undergo over the years and addressing the most urgent demands of the community residents in the current period. To achieve this, a bibliographic review was conducted on the main design components necessary for a successful intervention in vulnerable territories, and the main changes in the territory in question in recent years were also synthesized based on field experiences in 2021 and 2022. Based on these studies, the location and the program of needs for the intervention were defined, which consists of a high-density, low-rise housing project near Colonel Matos Dourado Avenue, as well as the creation of a micro park, footbridge, and square in its immediate surroundings. This program addresses the demand for housing and open spaces in the territory.
