Complexo residencial Bosque das Algarobas: um novo conceito em ILPI para idosos

Abstract

This Technical Project and Descriptive and Justifying Memorial aims to propose a long-term institution for the elderly, which can provide residents with a healthy and successful aging. To do so, we sought to use concepts of bioclimatic and regional architecture, the parameters of ambience, sense of urbanity and habitability and universal design. It is also a reflection of how the simple application of norms in this type of equipment of attention to the elderly, does not guarantee an adequate project its physical-psychological requirements. The technical project was developed at the preliminary design level, based on an interdisciplinary literature review process, covering general considerations about aging, institutions of long stay in Brazil, environment for healthy aging, accessibility and universal design, docility and proactivity of the environment. A study of architectural precedents, the compilation of ambience parameters, accessibility, humanization for collective housing design, and guidelines for a low environmental impact project were also carried out. The use of computational tools (CAD, Sketchup, Lumion, Climate Consultant) was essential for the development of graphics. Highlight for the Depth Map program of Spatial Syntax as an instrument that made it possible to attest to the privacy of the housing units and to define the best deployment configuration in order to promote a greater visual integration of the complex. The residential will be a long-term institution for elderly dependents and independent, with capacity for a maximum of 32 senior citizens.
