“LEAVING SCARS AND REFRAME NEW REALITIES”
In an attempt to understand the scale of the intervention and the integrity of the approach, not only from an urban-architectural perspective, but also with a deep look that calls for reflection, the concept of “leaving scars and portraying new realities” arises.
“Leaving scars” in a quest to understand this wound as a living memory. Behind every scar there is a story, an experience, it makes us aware that we are vulnerable and allows us to talk about regeneration.
“New realities” is where we find opportunity, where there are new searches and allows us to speak of a new identity.
This is how we consider that scar as the old, what happened, the mark and these new realities as new opportunities to pursue.

Popis projektu

Through a synergy between the old, the new, the scar, and the new reality, we propose an integral intervention of 3 PORTS. A logistic port (private technical), a citizen port (generates city and responds to a program of activities) and a symbolic port (reference to the scar and memory). Always considering that we are talking about polar functions, where there are two ports, citizen and symbolic, that communicate with each other and another private and not accessible that is part of an integrity and configures an urban profile.
As connection points between these 3 ports and the city is where we can find urban architectural elements, which configure and build public space and are containers for activities.
