his project was developed in the Final Work Project 1 and 2 during my senior year as an Architecture and Urbanism student in 2018. It focuses on the refugee problem that has affected Brazil’s reality in recent years. The refugee community was designed to be located in Caxias do Sul, Brazil, because the city already has a program to receive refugees from many places. The chosen site is just a few blocks from the Centro de Ajuda ao Migrante (CAM), from Portuguese the Migrant Help Center. This entity provides services of reception to the newly arrived refugees. Thus, the objective of this project is to create a space to welcome forced immigrants with dignity and provide all the necessary services to help them become part of Brazilian society. Furthermore, the The main purpose of the community is to help refugees project was also designed based on a structure that can be stabilize their lives in Brazil, providing all the necessary help. applied to other cities and to promote the synergy between It will be the solid foundation for refugees to be able to lift refugees and residents of the surroundings. their lives firmly. One of the synonyms of the word “firmness” is Situation Plan “solidity” that can be represented figuratively by a rock. Therefore, in Portuguese when we want to characterize someone as resistant as a rock, we call them Pétrea. Therefore, the community not only makes reference to its purpose, but honors those who will inhabit it. Using a brief allusion, refugees are like stones that have been improperly broken from their bedrocks, carried away by the rivers of life and lost their homes. In summary, the concept used for this project is the shear, movement and sedimentation of rocks, which can also be translated to: departure, displacement and integration of refugees into society. 7

Ecumenical Center: Ecumenical Center: A neutral place for refugees to practice their religion. Also, a place for reflection and relaxation for atheists. Help Center: Main building of the community where refugees will be received and have access to the necessary services when they enter Brazil, such as the Federal Police. In addition, the venue also has a dining hall, classrooms and a computer room. Access: Access to the community’s residential area can be done by pedestrians and vehicles. There are areas that can only be used by emergency vehicles. In addition, the Help Center has a separated access to service vehicles. The Ecumenical Center can only be reached on foot through the internal walks of the community.

Parking: Parking is shared by both the Help Center staff and residents. It has 31 parking spaces, in which four are dedicated to people with disabilities. In addition, near the entrance to the Help Center there are two bike racks to be used by residents and staff. Lookouts: They were designed for inhabitants to contemplate the surroundings since the area in which it is located has a privileged view. Also, it has a living area next to a bonfire space. Finally, the site also has the function of providing a maneuvering area for emergency vehicles. PWD Residences: The residences for people with disabilities were strategically located on flatter portions of the site and are close to the Help Center. 9

Ecumenical Center


A

ll the buildings in the community started out from a common form: a cube. It symbolizes a rock being broken several times. The houses and the Ecumenical Center are gravels of the bedrock which is the Help Center. A common feature of buildings are the layers of rocks. In each building, they are portrayed in different ways. At the ecumenical center, they are brises; at the houses, they are the metallic panels; and at the Help center they are the arches and reentrances of the walls.

he Help Center aims to provide all necessary services for the insertion of refugees into society. Architecturally, the center aims to be the bedrock of the community. Its arches works like brises to prevent the entrance of light directly from the sides. In addition, they recall the concept by symbolizing the roughness of the rocks. Structurally, it was made entirely of metal profiles with the use of thermo-acoustic insulation on its internal and external walls. Finally, the cross-ventilation and chimney systems have been widely used to help maintain a pleasant temperature inside, beside the air-conditioning system that will be used for days with very high temperatures.

he design of the Ecumenical Center aims to elevate those who go there, bringing them “closer to heaven.� The sensation is provided by its brises that gradually increase the space between them. The materials used were: a Pertech metal panel and wood flooring. The construction system is steel framed with thermo-acoustic insulation on the internal and external walls. The building also has a system of cross ventilation through shutters located near the floor.

he project of the residential building Decoráfits was developed in the junior year class Project Composition 3 at Universidade Franciscana, Santa Maria, Brazil. Its objective was to enhance students’ sense of spatiality and organization, to improve the understanding of the Brazilian Standards applied to this type of project, and to develop a building with a design that relates to its surroundings. The chosen site is located at Pinheiro Machado Street, corner with Acampamento Street in the city of Santa Maria, Brazil. One of the most relevant features of the city of Santa Maria is its collection of Art Deco houses, being the second largest in the world, after Miami, FL. Furthermore, the area where the designed building is located has the largest concentration of houses of this style, which makes even more interesting to develop a design that meets the style of its surroundings. During the idea’s development, it was decided to bring an element that would repeat itself in the Art Deco style facades. First, a study was made on the facades of the buildings in its surroundings, and then, a characteristic element was chosen and applied in the volumetric form of the building.

Winery

T

he Eximia Winery was one of the projects developed at the junior year class Project of Architecture, Urbanism, and Landscape VII at Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), Santa Maria, Brazil. The class was divided into two phases: in the first one, an industrial district should be designed following specific features determined by the Professors; during the second phase, a winery should be developed at one of the sites within the previous urban design project. Thus, the Eximia Winery was developed to be located within the Simbiosis Industrial Eco-Park, meeting the specific requirements of this project for an industrial district designed to be located at Santa Maria, Brazil. Regarding the main concerns, the surroundings of the chosen city do not have an appropriate infrastructure for new industries. For example, the streets are unpaved, without adequate bus stops and there are no recreation areas, despite its location at one of the most populated areas of Santa Maria. In addition, the site has no policies to protect the green areas, for example river springs. Considering these points, the three values that the developed industrial district should have were created, promoting a symbiosis. This way, all areas would be mutually benefited with the proposed urban infrastructure. Subtitle:

he Eximia winery has its shape based on one of the most exceptional natural phenomena in the world: The Comet Flaugergues. Known as “The Great Comet,” passed close to Earth in the year 1811. Due to its size and its exposure time, about 17 months, it was recorded as one of the major events that have already occurred. However, it gained fame for its passage coinciding precisely in a year of ideal vineyard climate after successive bad harvests. It made the wines produced in that period to be considered relics, many of them being kept until the present day. Since then, comets have been associated with the growth of exceptional grapes, bringing the expression “comet wine” to indicated high quality wines. The main characteristics of the comet were brought to the shape of Eximia winery. Therefore, it represents a permanent comet passing through the orbit of the earth, thus always producing: Exceptional Wines, For Exceptional Moments! Tail Aura Core

he winery was designed to work with only one floor for the production and bottling line of wines and sparkling wines . In addition, it was taken into consideration the entrance of the employees and visitors that were to make the visitation and tasting of wines.

he sunlight exposure along the day was a very important factor for the interior layout. Considering that the production of wine is a very delicate process, which requires constant temperature control to ensure the quality of the final product, the rooms that needed to maintain mild temperature conditions, such as cellars and fermentation tanks, were leased to the east and west, being protected by 25cm basalt stone walls, without openings that could bring direct sunlight. Additionally, to ensure the comfort for administrative employees, part of the offices was positioned to the north, being protected by the stretching of the roof.


T

he roof was made with sandwich-type tiles coated externally with courted steel sheets. The structure composed by a system of metal pillars and beams of 15cm of width applied to a mesh of 12x13m. The glass dome is supported by C-type beams screwed into 6 pillars. All abutments end in Spreads Footing. The two external sidewalls to the west and east are made of basalt stones found in the region and are internally widely used concrete in the walls and floors. Only few walls received plaster and white paint in the administrative areas. The walls of the area in which the fermentation and stabilization processes take place received a resin finish.

his project was developed in the senior year class Project of Architecture, Urbanism and Landscape Design IX of Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, Brazil. The objective was to work with the restoration of an old coffee factory located in the city. The chosen site is a typical Art Deco building which is in an advanced state of decay. Since it is located at the historic quarter of the city, this building is part of the memory of the older residents. On its full operational days, it spread a freshly grounded coffee smell through the center of the city. Therefore, this project was based on the need to expose the inhabitants of Santa Maria and visitors, to an important but forgotten part of the city’s history. In the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, the Gaucho Traditional Centers (GTC) are responsible for preserving and disseminating the local culture for new generations. Among these centers, the Ponche Verde Ponche Verde was the second to be founded in the entire state, after the Traditionalist Movement of 1960. Despite The Coffee Factory the historic importance that the GTCs have for Rio Grande do Sul and for the Santa Maria city, it ended up closing its doors in 2014. So, this work aimed to design a new Center of Gaucho Culture Ponche Verde in order to preserve both the ruin of the Coffee Factory and the history of the Gaucho traditions of Santa Maria and the state of Rio Grande do Sul.

irstly, there was a study of the remaining parts of the ruins to find out if there was any important architectural element that could be recovered, such as hydraulic tiles used at the factory entrance. The second step was to decide what would be demolished and what would be retained, which can be visualized on the scheme below. It was also decided to keep the facades with the original finishing from the period that they were built: white painting on plaster to contrast with the wood plank finishing of the new part of the building. Thus, the two parts would not overlap, leaving both the factory and the GTC coexisting in harmony.

uring the researches, an expression was used frequently found on literature about the Gaucho culture: The Cultural Echo. It expresses the act of spreading the culture through stories and teaching traditions along the generations. An interesting explanation linked to this term are the waves formed by a stone when it falls into a puddle of water, as even after the rock has sunk, the surface continues to move. Considering this, the new intervention is the echo produced by the ruin, expressing the cultural value of the construction and the events that take place inside it.

he Ponche Verde GTC is made with metallic structure and most of its walls are constructed using steel frame. The internal partitions also has the steel frame system. The only walls that do not use metal profiles are those that provides the structure for the ruin and those that border a small building. They are made of masonry with the use of metal pillars that support the roof’s trusses. On the other hand, the ruin has its wall stapled in the beams and pillars of the new construction’s wall, preventing the ruin to collapse.
