mnpaalcantara@gmail.com MSc in Urban Studies (Erasmus Mundus 4Cities), Architect and Urbanist graduated from UFG (BRAZIL). In addition, while she was in her bachelor's, she has held an exchange at IIT (Chicago, IL - USA). Moreover, she has published papers related to urban mobility in journals, books, and congresses worldwide. She has also worked as an intern at some offices in Brazil and the United States. Furthermore, after her graduation, she was a transport researcher in an urban mobility department. Nowadays, she is finishing another master's degree in Urban Planning and Policy Design at Politecnico di Milano (Italy). Passionate about technology, languages, and travel, she likes to move around, knowing new cultures and urban solutions. She is charmed by one of the city's great themes, mobility, and she believes in the architect's power to enhance and improve urban life quality. She dreams of a just and more collective society.

WORK SAMPLES
TEXTILE EXPLORATION CENTER This studio project has addressed the contemporary challenge of inspiring positive lasting change, through the design of a textile center with a research component located in Evanston, Illinois (19 km north of downtown Chicago) on the current site of the Evanston Art Center. The project has addressed the harmony between a vibrant residential community, a nearby institution – Northwestern University, and Lake Michigan. This new nucleus on Lake Michigan would serve as a potent city force for craftspeople, artists, makers, researchers and consumers. The “TEC” would be a civic space open to all for the benefit of the City of Evanston and the entire City of Chicago at large. Team project developed while studying at Illinois Institute of Technology, 2014.

MULTIFUNCTIONAL COMPLEX The project’s main challenge was to integrate three blocks, requalifying and connecting them with pre-existing urban equipment. This multifunctional complex implementation would approach public areas and gallery through courtyards that surround them, thus, creating more generous areas which would stimulate permanence, integration and social conviviality. Team project developed while studying at Universidade Federal de Goias 2015.

SMART CAMPUS UFG This proposal contemplates important incentives for social activities in the city and contributes to promote a new concept and experience of urban mobility, sustainability and technology on campus II by changing patterns and behaviors. Therefore, the smart campus’s goal is to seed this new paradigm, thus it can fructify even more over the city and become an example that can be done in others campi/locations. Individual project developed as final graduation assignment while studying at Universidade Federal de Goias, 2016.
The conceptual design process has been initiated through the generation of ideas from a predetermined problematic, the urban mobility inefficiency on campus II. For the purpose of contributing to solve this problem through proposals, creating a new urban mobility paradigm, thus, the smart campus proposal has been shown by a word, “network”, which conveys the concept of integration and connection.

Therefore, it has been presented the concept, the five thematic axes, which is the urban design leader of this proposal: 1. Prioritize pedestrian, cyclist and contemplate universal accessibility; 2. Enhance public transportation; 3. Rationalize vehicles’ use; 4. Plan urban networks; 5. Include technology allied to sustainability. Consequently, its network supports the foundations and allegations of the Mobility Federal Law (Brasil, 2012).

USERS’ PROFILE AND THEIR DISPLACEMENTS A qualitative, quantitative, descriptive and exploratory research has been made with 494 valid interviews, (381 in loco and 113 online), for the purpose of obtaining updated information regarding the campus II users’ profile their displacements. Indeed, the confidence level is 95% and the maximum estimated margin of error is 5 percentage points more or less over the total results. The research has identified that 60% of the passenger flow to Samambaia Campus comes from the north, center and south of the city. Moreover, concerning the flow originating from neighboring municipalities, a percentage of 7% has being observed by users coming from cities like Anapolis and Itumbiara, which are not even part of the RMG, but maintain significant relations with the capital. Consequently, these data confirm the importance of campus II in the urban fabric, which it has been part of, thus, a relevant TGC responsible for significantly influencing urban aspects of municipal and also intermunicipal relations. Based on the displacements to campus II, public transport has been the most used, accounting for 51% of generated trips. Furthermore, it is important to emphasize the significant presence of other modes of transportation, such as bicycle, car ride, on foot and motorcycle. According to the internal displacements on campus, it has been shown that most of them has being made by foot, totaling 76%. The public transport, however, has been corresponded by 10%, and it has been exceeded by the car use, which has represented 16% of total trips on campus. It has also observed a low rate of the bicycle’s use, which indicates its underutilization in the opportunity to better promote urban mobility for displacements inside campus II.

The overall smart campus program has been summarized by this table, called the scale A – macro’s program. Moreover, in the problems column it could be seen a summary of issues raised, as well as in the following column, the potentialities characterization. Consequently, it has been possible to analyze each thematic axes, with the purpose of presenting proposals and guidelines for the urban mobility improvement on campus II, thus, starting the integration and complementarity network between the axes, which involves all this proposal. 4.
