Abstract(s)
Em METAMORFOSE (...) pretende-se construir uma reflexão crítica ao tema da
arquitetura como um recurso terapêutico ao tratamento de doenças do foro psicológico,
introduzindo essa abordagem no desenvolvimento de um projeto prático que visa dar
resposta às necessidades de centros de terapia psicossociais no nosso país, procurando
compreender a influência do espaço arquitetónico na vida quotidiana de uma pessoa
com doença mental.
Com esse objetivo foi realizada uma abordagem dupla de revisão bibliográfica da
literatura, relativamente ao tema da saúde mental e por outro, conversas com
profissionais ligados à área, doentes e familiares, pretende-se estabelecer um espaço
onde o doente se sinta confortável e acolhido onde se possa sentir como uma pessoa e
não como uma doença, através da criação de um estabelecimento que utiliza a
arquitetura como forma de recuperação reduzindo assim as restrições físicas
encontradas neste tipo de edifícios hospitalares. O ambiente em que o paciente se
encontra é crucial para sua recuperação. Espaços bem projetados, com pouco ruido e
tranquilidade, podem ajudar a aliviar o stress e a ansiedade. Algumas pesquisas
apontam que a contemplação da natureza e de paisagens panorâmicas podem ter
impacto na saúde mental, aliviando o stresse e a depressão.
A integração da natureza nos edifícios pode ser utilizada como terapia, ao fragmentar o
projeto em unidades básicas e criar espaços específicos que atendam às necessidades de
cada paciente. Ao criar ambientes terapêuticos com requisitos espaciais distintos e
incluir jardins e paisagens naturais, podemos contribuir para a recuperação dos
pacientes.
Recorrendo a alguns exemplos pragmáticos, utilizando-os como referência no campo
da arquitetura da saúde, aprofunda-se o conhecimento das técnicas utilizadas na
utilização da natureza como cura, empregando a materialidade neutra gerando
um espaço acolhedor diferente dos aspetos de um hospital, proporcionando um espaço
para ser vivenciado, oferecendo diversas sensações e experiências rítmicas.
Neste sentido, é importante compreender como os elementos do espaço,
nomeadamente a luz, as cores, a forma, os sons e os materiais afetam de forma positiva
ou negativa a perceção do entorno vivido, alterando o comportamento do indivíduo, dando lugar a diferentes comportamentos e sensações sendo fatores positivos no
tratamento dos pacientes permitindo criar um melhor ambiente tanto para estes
últimos como para os funcionários.
O principal objetivo deste projeto arquitetónico ligado à saúde é incentivar o contacto
com a natureza e o ar livre, usando a arquitetura como uma forma de “terapia”,
minimizando a intervenção rígida de muitos tratamentos.
Em suma, este trabalho pretende demonstrar o papel do arquiteto como parte
integrante da terapia, projetando edifícios e espaços que complementem os
tratamentos e favoreçam o processo de cura, através de sensação de bem-estar a nível
social, físico e psicológico.
In METAMORPHOSIS (...) the aim is to build a critical reflection on architecture theme as a therapeutic resource for psychological illnesses treatment. Introducing this approach in the development of a practical project aims to respond to the needs of psychosocial therapy centers in our country, seeking to understand the influence of architectural space on the daily life of a person with mental illness. With this purpose, a dual approach was carried out: on one hand, a literature review was conducted on the mental health subject, and on the other hand, conversations were held with professionals in the field, patients, and family members. The aim is to establish a space where the patient feels comfortable and welcomed, where they can feel like a person and not just a disease, through the creation of an establishment that uses architecture as a means of recovery, thus reducing the physical restrictions found in this type of hospital building. The environment in which the patient is placed is crucial for their recovery. Welldesigned spaces, with low noise and tranquility, can help alleviate stress and anxiety. Some studies suggest that contemplation of nature and panoramic landscapes can have an impact on mental health, relieving stress and depression. The landscapes are enhanced through buildings, allowing them to be used as therapies, fragmenting the project into basic units, acquiring a specific design, responding to the needs of each separate part. The creation of therapeutic environments with distinct spatial requirements always involves nature and therapeutic gardens. Referring pragmatic examples, using them as a reference in the healthcare architecture filed, using the nature as a form of healing, intends to create welcoming spaces that are different from the usual appearance of hospitals, providing different experiences and sensations. In this way, it is important to understand how space elements, such as light, colors, shapes, sounds, and materials, positively or negatively affect the perception of the lived environment, altering individual behavior and giving rise to different behaviors and sensations. These factors are positive in the treatment of patients and allow the creation of a better environment for both patients and staff. The main goal of this health-related architectural project is to encourage contact with nature and the outdoors, using architecture as a form of therapy, minimizing the intervention of many treatments. In summary, this work aims to demonstrate the role of the architect as an integral part of therapy, stimulating the healing process, through a sense of well-being at a social, physical and psychological level.
