Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Arquitetura e Urbanismo) - Departamento de Arquitetura, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2023.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/56570The Northeast region of Brazil has undergone a significant transformation in its image in recent years, driven by tourism. Initially associated with the stigma of droughts and poverty, the region is now recognized for its beautiful beaches, warm climate, and rich culture. Currently, tourism plays a crucial role in reducing inequality in Brazil by generating employment and income. Natal, in Rio Grande do Norte, stands out as one of the most desired destinations for national tourists, despite the historical concentration of lodging options in large hotels. The diversification of the hotel market is a necessity, especially with the absence of hostels in the city. Despite its strategic location, Praia do Meio lacks this type of accommodation. This study addresses the relationship between lodging and restorative environments in the Praia do Meio neighborhood in Natal/RN. Therefore, the overall objective of this work is to develop a preliminary architectural study of a hostel under the concepts of restorative environments. For this purpose, the following specific objectives are sought: 1. Explore the tourist potential of Praia do Meio in Natal-RN to provide lodging integrated into its surroundings; 2. Identify the main specifications guiding the classification of lodging facilities; 3. Apply the concepts of restorative environments to the proposed architectural product. Based on this, the final project proposal resulted in the "Asas Hostel," a hotel facility organized into 11 blocks, with two on the ground floor and the rest with two floors, occupying a total area of 3658.55m² in the Praia do Meio neighborhood in Natal/RN.Attribution 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/br/Projeto arquitetônicoHostelTurismoHospedagemAmbientes restauradoresbachelorThesis
