Tuanne Monteiro de Carvalho Architecture & Urban Planning Portfolio
Ever since I was a little child I was involved with art, history and poetry. I am fascinated to collect maps, get to know cities, and understand and create landscapes in my imagination. One day I found out that it had a name and that it could be a profession. As a student I desire to learn and to improve my knowledges, as a dreamer I really think that I am in the right way.

Rustic Open Mall Arch Design Studio v Partner Maria Juliana Lyra Professor David Guerra and Professor Rafael Maia Spring 2013
The Rustic Open Mall is a commercial building design which joins service and entertainment activities, as a place where customers can go shopping or just walk. Its volume is inspired by traditional fishing with small nets. The movement generated by casting nets was used in the formal concept.
Located in a residential area between two forest reserves, the Rustic Open Mall tries to integrate with the surrounding natural environment.

The concept of the movement of casting nets was also used in the floor plans. Large corridors and halls would allow customers the feeling of an open space, although they would be under a protection roof designed to block sun rays. The building plan has 45 shops and 21 offices. 0

Residential & Tourist Complex Arch Design Studio vi Partner Amanda Rodrigues Professor Alexandre Toledo and Professor Rafael Maia Fall 2013
The Residential and Tourist Complex provides the convenience, comfort and safety of a resort to residents. Located at the coast of Maceio City, in a site of approximately 7,750m², the surround area has presented an intense development of buildings and increase of population. However, the dense vegetation area at the edge of the complex is maintained and protected by the Government of the city.
The design proposal allows residents to appreciate restaurants and pubs of the complex itself. Moreover, the complex provides a fitness area, laundry services, beauty salon and a variety of services located at the ground area, which it is characterized as a community center for the city.
The design has two different kind of buildings as two residential towers and two commercial and service towers. Both residential and commercial buildings present design strategies to effective use of natural ventilation and daylight.
Also, the use of a mezzanine floor at level 8 provides a large green area to social activities, rest and contemplation of the front sea. Besides that, the use of just pillars and sills is a facilitator of ventilation through the building to the urban city.

The urban intervention in a residential area of Maceio City refers to the functionality of a public space dynamic. As the establishment of transport corridors and recreational areas to a better solution of traffic and pedestrians flows.
The study area has a big potential of expansion, due to the construction of a shopping mall nearby. For this reason, the urban intervention proposes to solve questions of traffic and pedestrians mobility, by recognizing the major and minor flows.
The design presents the expansion, redefinition and revitalization of open spaces in the set, rearranging squares, footpaths, walkways and urban facilities.
Sobrado’s Restoration Theory and Technique of Architectural Restoration Team: Camila Bernardino, Karla Calheiros, Maria Juliana Lyra, and Pablo Peixoto. Professor Josemary Ferrare profeSpring 2014
This work researched the importance of historic preservation through conservation and restoration of a building located in Maceio historical downtown.
It was chosen a Brazilian construction model typical of the XIX century. The Sobrado was deteriorated over the years, including a fire in 2012. Currently the historical building is a shoes store’s storage.
The design proposal is to designate a new use to the building. The main idea is to adapt the old building to the new needs, in this case, as a support place for the store. The restoration plan has reception area, conference rooms, restrooms, and break room.
Restaurant Gourmet Arch Design Studio vii Partner Camila Bernardino Professor Suzann Cordeiro and Professor Jorge Marcelo Cruz Spring 2014
Located in a privileged area of Maceio City, the Gourmet Restaurant Sao Goncalo uses the sea view as the design concept. Due to this, the majority of the areas are visually directed to the sea, not only the social but also the service areas, as the kitchen.
The design proposal was inspired in a old Lighthouse that was located next to the site. The restaurant allows all the users of the building to have the sensation of being at the top of a lighthouse or in a point lookout, by amplifying the perspective of view of clients and staffs.
The restaurant has two floors plans. The first floor refers to the service access, where is located the major kitchen and staff rest area. The industrial kitchen is designed to allow staffs enjoying the view while working. The second floor is dedicated to the clients area, also a gourmet space that can be used to private events if it is the case.
The materials used were corten steel to the metallic structure and brise-soleil panels, glass to the frontages and windows and concrete at the first floor which works structurally. All areas and materials used are following the standards established by the Brazilian Sanitary Surveillance Agency.
“The design begins when you put yourself at another personal perspective to consider the variety of perceptions and opportunities that your design can provide.� (Amanda Rodrigues)
