PROJECT PROPOSAL
Microalgae are single-celled photosynthetic beings that for some years have attracted attention due to their capacity to produce biofuels from the oil generated by them. The advantages of this technique include high productivity, no competition with agricultural areas and consumption of carbon dioxide. In this way, microalgae farms are capable of producing the same amount of biofuel as soy farms using an area thirty times smaller and guaranteeing clean air from CO2 absorption.

From the analysis of the air quality map of Brazil, it was possible to verify the opportunity of the microalgae farm in the city of Cubatão in São Paulo as a possibility of improving the levels of pollution. After an analysis of the urban and natural context of the municipality, the project arises with the intention of connecting the population to the mangrove ecosystem present in the area, creating a productive park that is implanted as a platform.

The new building, located in the neighborhood of GlĂłria, intends to add itself to the place following the same characteristics. Thus, the building seeks to bring living spaces between residents with common areas spread across the floors, generating a constant flow between them. In addition, the typologies of each apartment prioritize integration, avoiding segregations between rooms. The presence of green enhances the feeling of community that already exists in the neighborhood area through gardens shared by all. As a result, they are implanted in existing levels at the rear of the land, seeking to take advantage of its topography and make construction costs cheaper.

Recoil in the main facade, widening the sidewalk which in many parts of the street is very narrow, creating space for pedestrians to connect with others.
From the study of the insolation of the land, it is concluded that the levels in the rear of the land can be an opportunity for common gardens for the residents.
The green, present in the neighborhood in several public spaces, is proposed throughout the project promoting connection with nature and helping with the drainage problem present on the street.

Rio de Janeiro Urban Farm The urban farm main objective is to reduce the distance between organic food and its consumers. In addition, it seeks to raise awareness, re-educating the population, so that everyone gets involved in the production of their everyday food. In this way, the building brings together not only its residents, but also the entire neighborhood. The urban farm, located on the first two floors of the building, concentrates different types of production that are born with equipment provided with LED light. Among them, the hydroponic, aeroponic and fish systems stand out. Together, these systems can produce up to 18 tons of organic food daily.
Complementing the ground floor program, private gardens are created for the use of the residents. Controlled by a private organ, in that areas are produced food that needs direct sunlight for its growth.

URBAN ANALYSIS
Rio de Janeiro’s state
Rio de Janeiro’s municipality
As it is concentrated in a valley bounded by the Pedra Branca hills, FLOODING and LANDSLIDES are common in the area. The flooded areas, characterized by swamps, are concentrated in the middle of the area, which meant that the buildings and roads were consolidated around this risk area.
The ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ZONES that surround the area, suffer an increasing irregular occupation, resulting from the expansion of the urban network, putting at risk the diversity of the local ecosystem.
The CENTRALITIES of the neighborhood are mostly concentrated in Recreio dos Bandeirantes (bottom area), while Vargens (top area) presents only one of regional scope.

The URBAN PRESSURE increases the occupation of areas that are under environmental protection and wetlands, degrading local ecosystems and creating unstable buildings.
The area is crossed by Avenida das Américas, a path of CONCENTRATION of flows and capitals that directly influences the surroundings regarding future investments in the metropolitan region. It also ended up concentrating the occupation of the Vargens area (top) around it, as it is the main connection between that area and the rest of the city.
The Recreio area (bottom) is the one with the highest DENSITY, given by real estate speculation arising from the already saturated occupation of the South Zone of Rio de Janeiro. In addition, the informal settlements also concentrate a high density, but are scattered in small portions throughout the area.

Pontal Road The difficulty of walking for pedestrians and cyclists is the main problem of the road that has narrow or non-existent sidewalks in some sections. The proposal implements an extension of the sidewalks and an exclusive lane for cyclists. In addition, new mixed-use buildings are created in some points where the ground floor has shops and services to the population of the area and the Maramar condominium, since getting to the central areas of Recreio is necessary.
44
Av. das AmĂŠricas The lack of trees and the proximity to high speed motorized vehicles on the avenue creates discomfort and insecurity for pedestrian and cyclist traffic. The new afforestation, is better to contain the heat island formed in the road and to create spaces of social activities and permanence in the existing flower beds, mainly next to the BRT stations where the density is higher. Along with this, the widening of the sidewalks, which will have a cycle path, and the new buildings with services on the ground floor will attract pedestrians making the BRT stations in places with frequent activities.

Av. Aílton Henrique da Costa The street try to attract pedestrians with mixed-use buildings of up to 5 floors. In the way, it is guaranteed that the residents have eyes to the street making those who transit feel more secure. The proposal to maintain buildings without frontal and lateral distance from the land limit seeks to guarantee visual continuity (legibility) by transforming the road into a large corridor. The spacing at the back of the lots creates a permeable space for possible coexistence between the residents of the buildings and, in addition, to drain rainwater for reuse or for the water table. The afforestation of the sidewalks and the central construction site creates a green corridor on the avenue making it a comfortable place to walk.

The street parallel to Terreirão (informal settlements), on the left side of the Canal das Taxas, becomes exclusive for pedestrian use due to its small width. The new square seeks to create a space for leisure and coexistence of Terreirão’s residents in a natural area in the urban environment. Various activities, such as sports and community gardens, are encouraged to strengthen the feeling of community and integrate the population. The area also has a new media library in the neighborhood that lacks a learning and research environment.

Canal de Sernambetiba The four quadrants are limited by two physical barriers: Avenida das Américas and Canal Sernambetiba. The new bridge for exclusive use by pedestrians and cyclists creates a route that connects the entire region, being a continuity of the proposed parks. It generates a new area that can house various activities, in addition to a skate park located under the viaduct. The idea is to create an environment with a large flow of people, being safe and reducing the need of cars in the neighborhood.

2 Linear Park
With the expansion of the neighborhood, a new road network is designed for an area where there are currently few buildings spread out. The linear park is proposed by cutting all this new grid connecting it end to end. It will coexist with the urban environment in which it is inserted, extending over a few blocks or land of buildings and guaranteeing the direct contact of man with the green and the water. As it is a floodable area, lakes were created to widen the channel, reducing the risk of flooding. In these lakes water treatment stations are present so that it reaches the Sernambetiba Canal cleanly.

So that, the implementation of new public urban equipment, such as the supermarket and hospital, is necessary to supply the population’s demand. These new generated spaces will also attract people besides the residents and can be use for meetings and leisure. In addition, the permeability of sidewalks with new flower beds and trees reduces the risk of flooding.

SINES SAFARI HOTEL 52
Utopic Project 3th year University of Lisbon Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism Individual Lisbon, Portugal 2016 Location: Sines, Portugal
53
The project arises with the purpose of building a hybrid architecture on a 120 hectares land. In order to maintain the identity of the thermoelectric present, the principles of connection and power generation were applied throughout the project. The proximity of 20 km to a Safari and the need to maintain its conditions, is the alternative found to create an even stronger connection of individuals with nature and for the preservation of animals ensuring a sustainable energy hotel. The presence of animals has a greater role than that of entertainment and conservation of species. The intention is to produce through them and through biodigestor tanks the energy necessary for the functioning of the building. This biogas technique feeds bacteria with food scraps and animal excrement so that they generate fertilizers for the soil and methane gas that feeds generators and heaters. The new project pretends to remove the polluting image that the thermoelectric carries with it. Upon entering the main building, the individual finds himself in the middle of created paths that guides him to experience and feel the architecture. These trails take place in the middle of gardens and water mirrors, elements of nature that are brought into the building. Still on the ground floor, it is possible to observe the veterinarian who intends to bring animals closer to people and to make them aware of the necessary care. For years, the thermoelectric drained water back to the sea after using it as an energy source, so the hotel’s aquarium has the purpose of studying and conserving the sea species of Sines and Portugal aiming the preservation of those in extinction. Connection and coexistence happens between people throughout the building. The grid floor guarantees the views to the floors above and below and gardens are created for meetings and leisure for all guests. In addition, the balconies in each room face the building, allowing people to interact even when inside their private spaces. The shared rooms are intended to lower the costs of staying at the hotel and to make people know each other and share new experiences. They all have their own kitchens so that guests can enjoy and reduce their expenses. The 54
reservation of these rooms is strongly encouraged to everyone since they are the ones who have the best views: the beach, the safari and the pool. Due to the large number of existent pillars, their impression of forest is caused by those who pass through. With this, the new structure envolve the entire building, born from “tree-pillars” that give space to viewpoints and gardens. The structural grid appears as a protective cover on the facades because it guarantee the entry of light and natural ventilation. The idea for these grids is that climbing plants grow along them and, together with the vertical gardens located in other parts of the facade, reduce the pollution of the environment and perform thermal control inside the building.

PROJECT CONCEPT The project started from an initial idea of creating a grid, consisting of beams and metal pillars, which occupies almost the entire area of the land with 4x4 meters modules. When suspended, this mesh is filled according to the needs of the program. Empty modules are left to highlight the structural continuity, making it possible to create new spaces and plans in the future. In addition, it provides the visitor and the artists to experiment the space between the lines of the grid. The way, volumes, plans and lines guide the project. The lines can be understood as the simplification of the shape of the volumes and plans. It defines spaces that relate in different ways to the architecture of the gallery. The volumes, distributed asymmetrically, reinforce the idea of movement. This game of full and empty spaces, in addition to expressing differences in heights, intends to demonstrate the flexibility observed in the neighborhood the project is inserted that is constantly changing, either with restoration works or with the construction of new buildings. The changeable character of the building allows the visitor to “get lost” in the labyrinth of beams and pillars, having different experiences at each of the gallery’s levels. All this metallic structure builds a new landscape where the land becomes the gallery and the gallery becomes the land.
