Abstract(s)
O Projecto Final corresponde à continuação e melhoramento do projecto anteriormente desenvolvido na unidade curricular de Projecto V/1, de forma a aproximá-lo de um projecto de execução. O tema de trabalho, como descrito no título, é habitação multigeracional, incluindo toda a área envolvente, proporcionando um espaço de lazer na Covilhã, inserindo-se desta forma no contexto do projecto académico anteriormente desenvolvido.
Portugal (e outros países desenvolvidos), enfrenta um problema que é o envelhecimento acelerado da população. Este é um problema que necessita de respostas, com base nas necessidades reais dos habitantes. Para evitar notícias de idosos que se isolam nas suas habitações e cuja morte só é detectada muito tempo depois, necessitamos não apenas de habitações bem projectadas, mas também que promovam a interacção social entre as pessoas idosas e as demais.
Contudo, no caso específico da Covilhã (uma cidade “universitária”) deparamo-nos com duas realidades: por um lado, o aumento da população idosa, por outro a constante renovação de jovens na cidade. Este enquadramento aparentemente contraditório, pode no entanto ser conciliado e projectar-se de forma a servir esta dicotomia.
A zona de estudo, adjacente à gare da Covilhã, é uma área onde podemos observar bem as cicatrizes deixadas pelo tempo e a diferença brusca entre a cidade e o campo. Assim, pretende-se com o projecto reformular esta paisagem de forma harmoniosa.
São criados novos arruamentos e acessos pedonais, introduzindo novos edifícios habitacionais e mistos, equipamentos públicos (com destaque para uma cantina social, um silo automóvel e uma piscina/spa), com percursos sem barreiras arquitectónicas, para acesso universal a espaços públicos que promovam o convívio intergeracional.
As soluções habitacionais desenvolvidas têm o intuito de favorecerem os idosos, mas também serem utilizáveis por citadinos de qualquer idade, comprovando a viabilidade do convívio intergeracional.
A pormenorização construtiva do projecto demonstra as opções de materiais e tecnologias mais adequadas às soluções arquitectónicas, com vista ao bom uso e longevidade dos edifícios.
This Final Project will be the continuation and improvement of the project previously developed in the curricular unit Project V/1, in order to transform it into a detailed project. The theme work, as described in the title, is multigenerational housing, including the surrounding area, thus providing a recreational space in Covilhã. Portugal (and other developed countries) faces a problem that is the fast aging of its population. This is a problem that needs answers, based on the real needs of the inhabitants. To prevent news of elderly people who are isolated in their homes and whose death is only detected long after, we need not only well designed housing, but also to promote interaction between the elderly and others. However, in the specific case of Covilhã (a university town) we are faced with two realities: on the one hand, the increase in the elderly population, on the other the constant renewal of youth in the city. This seemingly contradictory framework, can however be reconciled and designed to serve this dichotomy. The study area, adjacent to the gare of Covilhã, is an area where we can clearly observe the scars left by time and the sharp difference between city and countryside. Therefore, the project purpose is to remodel this landscape harmoniously. New streets and pedestrian access are created by introducing new residential and mixed buildings, public facilities (especially a social canteen, a car silo and a pool/spa), new routes without architectural barriers to allow universal access to public spaces, therefore promoting intergenerational living. The proposed housing solutions are intended to favor the elderly, but also to be usable by city dwellers of all ages, proving the viability of intergenerational living. Constructive detailing of the project demonstrates the most appropriate choices of materials and technologies for the architectural solutions regarding the good use and longevity of buildings.
