Abstract(s)
Os bairros da América Latina caracterizam-se pela particular forma de vida dos seus habitantes, pela maneira como estas sociedades vivem o espaço urbano, o modificam e o adaptam de modo a que este se molde às suas necessidades. Muitos deles foram sendo construídos sem qualquer regra de planeamento urbanístico, sem preocupação de continuidade com a malha urbana, através de arquiteturas informais.
Este crescimento urbano repercute-se numa estrutura espacial desordenada, que marca a cidade e contamina negativamente a imagem do bairro e que marginaliza os que nele habitam. Consequentemente, cria-se um abismo entre o mundo do bairro informal e a restante sociedade/cidade formal, quer em termos socioeconómicos quer em termos espaciais. Esta segregação deve-se não apenas às diferenças socioeconómicas das populações, mas também e principalmente à imagem descaracterizada, degradada e desqualificada quer ao nível do edificado quer ao nível dos espaços públicos.
Consequentemente estes bairros vão quebrando a continuidade com a malha urbana existente, passando a ser vistos como algo exterior à cidade, algo que não lhe pertence, como espaços com regras diferentes, guetos ou vazios urbanos em termos socioeconómicos. Esta demarcação do espaço cria uma separação espacial e simultaneamente agrava os conflitos e as diferenças sociais. Por outro lado, contribui para a criação de uma barreira no imaginário coletivo da população, que separa o bairro do resto da cidade. Neste processo até os espaços públicos, tradicionalmente vistos como elementos de ligação e continuidade urbana, se tornam autênticos obstáculos à qualificação da cidade.
Neste contexto, esta dissertação apresenta uma proposta de reabilitação urbana centrada em medidas projectuais de desenho urbano para os espaços públicos, para o largo da estação do Metro no bairro de Petáre na cidade de Caracas (Venezuela). Pretende-se com esta proposta contribuir para atenuar a segregação espacial e consequentemente social que actualmente caracterizam o bairro no contexto da cidade.
The neighborhoods of Latin America are characterized by particular way of life of its inhabitants, by the way these societies live urban space, adapted and change so that it is molded to their needs. Many of them were built without any rule of urban planning, without concern for continuity with the urban fabric through informal architectures. This urban growth is reflected in a disordered spatial structure that marks the city and contaminates negatively the image of the neighborhood, and marginalizes those who inhabit it. Consequently, it creates a gap between the world of informal neighborhood and the rest of the formal society/city, both in socio-economic terms and in terms of space. This segregation is due not only to socio-economic differences of the populations, but also and, especially, the uncharacterized image, degraded and disqualified both in terms of buildings and in terms of public spaces. Therefore these neighborhoods will break continuity with the existing urban fabric, being seen as something outside the city, something that does not belong, as spaces with different rules, ghettos or urban voids in socioeconomic terms. This demarcation of space creates a spatial separation and simultaneously exacerbates conflicts and social differences. On the other hand, contributes to the creation of a barrier in the collective imagination of the population that separates the neighborhood from the rest of the city. In this process even public space, traditionally viewed as connecting elements and urban continuity, become obstacles to authentic city qualification. In this context, this paper presents a proposal for urban renewal centered on projective measures of urban design for public spaces, for the Metro station in the neighborhood of Petare in Caracas (Venezuela). The intention of this proposal is to contribute to alleviating the spatial segregation and consequently social, that currently characterizes the social neighborhood in the city context.
