PANDORA

Universidad Nacional de Tucumán, Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, Tucumán

Idea projektu

We are located between the city of San Miguel de Tucumán and Yerba Buena, at a point that acts as an opening and link within the inter-municipal corridor of the West. Yerba Buena's problem is the scarcity of public spaces and the predominance of mostly private absorbent land, both in unoccupied and occupied areas. The current threat of flooding is evident along the channels. The landscape is subject to barriers such as the main communication routes, confined agricultural areas and the hill.

Popis projektu

PANDORA is the result of mediation between the site, its immediate context, and its larger context. The ensemble subtly embraces the park with the intention of minimizing the impact of its insertion and preserving its character. To the west, a slab unfolds and rises, accommodating all civic and cultural activities for the neighborhood. To the east, the municipal building emerges as a significant landmark, seeking the representative character required by it. Both are connected by a large urban axis that captures the flow of people circulating through the ensemble, achieving a harmonious composition between the parts.
