Abstract(s)
Um dos problemas da actualidade é o envelhecimento da população que, em muitos casos,
leva à solidão dos idosos e consequentemente problemas como sedentarismo e problemas de
saúde. Cada vez mais, os arquitectos, em colaboração com outras entidades, têm um papel
importante para contrariar este comportamento típico que se transforma num problema
público: a solidão. Então, como referido na proposta de tema pelo Prof. Doutor António
Carvalho é necessário “criar oportunidades e novas tipologias habitacionais que permitam
conjugar a residência conjunta no mesmo edifício de pessoas de diversas faixas etárias, será
um modo de dinamizar e rejuvenescer de modo sustentado a cidade”. Portugal não é
excepção e é necessário criar espaços apelativos às várias faixas etárias, desde a habitação
até aos espaços públicos. Só assim é possível uma relação multigeracional jovem/idoso,
combatendo a solidão dos mais velhos e inserindo-os numa sociedade activa.
Na sequência do projecto habitacional realizado na unidade curricular Projecto V/I, pretendo
dar continuidade ao trabalho realizado, cujo tema foi “Habitação Multigeracional, envelhecer
no séc. XXI”, aprofundando o tema com bases teóricas e construtivas.
Nesse sentido, a proposta urbana para a área de intervenção (junto à estação de comboios da
Covilhã) será revista e melhorada nalguns aspectos, beneficiando dos ensinamentos que
resultarão da investigação bibliográfica e de casos de estudo.
O mesmo acontecerá com o projecto dos edifícios, cuja implantação no terreno será ajustada
em termos de cotas altimétricas para um melhor ajustamento topográfico, facilitando
também os percursos de atravessamento e a relação entre as galerias de acesso e as pracetas
entre edifícios. Os ensinamentos recolhidos na análise dos casos de estudo, Bairro da Bouça
(Porto) de Álvaro Siza, Casas para Idosos (Chur - Suíça) de Peter Zumthor, sem depreciar os
restantes, serão de particular pertinência.
Finalmente, a pormenorização construtiva será uma aprendizagem fundamental para o
futuro, em termos de selecção dos materiais e técnicas construtivas mais adequadas para o
conforto dos residentes e para a longevidade dos edifícios.
One of the problems today is the aging of the population which, in many cases, leads to the loneliness of the elderly and consequent problems suc h as sedentary lifestyle and health issues. Increasingly, architects, in collaboration with other entities, have an important role to counteract this typical behavior which becomes a public issue: loneliness. So , as mentioned by Prof. António Carvalho in the theme proposal, it is necessary to " create opportunities and new housing typologies that allow combining the joint residence of people from different age groups in the same building , it will be a way to energize and rejuvenate the city in a sustained way." Portugal is no exception and it is necessary to create appealing spaces to various age groups, from housing to public spaces. Only thus can we have a multigenerational relationship of youngsters/elderly,fighting the loneliness of older people and introducing them in an active society. Following the housing project designed in the curriculum unit Project V/I, I intend to further develop the work done, whose theme was "multigenerational housing, aging in 21st century", deepening the subject in terms of theory and construction. In this sense, the urban proposal for the intervention area (next to the Covilhã train station) will be revised and improved in some aspects, benefiting from the teachings which result from bibliographic research and case studies. The same happens to the designed buildings, whose land placement will be adjusted in terms of altitudes for the best topographic adjustment, facilitating crossing routes and the relationship between the access galleries and the little squares among buildings. The lessons learned from the case studies analysis, specially in Bairro da Bouça (Porto) by Alvaro Siza and Houses for the Elderly (Chur - Switzerland) by Peter Zumthor, will be of particular relevance. Finally, construction detailing will be a key learning for the future, in terms of materials selection and the most appropriate constructive techniques for the comfort of residents and building durability.
