Abstract(s)
A questão da habitação para a população sénior se adequar às características físicas da população é um problema vasto que se coloca a vários níveis. Com o aumento da esperança média de vida, o envelhecimento da população e a sua relação com a habitação, tornam-se uma questão muito actual.
O tema “Habitar e Envelhecer no século XXI” leva à análise desta problemática, revelando assim diferentes formas de abordar a questão e por consequência surgindo várias soluções no que diz respeito à habitação para seniores. Verifica-se assim a necessidade de se equacionar novas formas de ocupação da cidade e da habitação, proporcionando e estabelecendo o equilíbrio entre as necessidades desta faixa etária com bons exemplos da Arquitectura.
Os subtemas “Memórias” e “Ambientes” são dois conceitos que estão interligados entre si e a Arquitectura, tendo um papel fundamental na construção de um povo. Estes definem a realidade de uma sociedade em transformação, através da sua Arquitectura e das respostas às necessidades desta população em evolução.
A Arquitectura é assim, formada por várias escolhas formais e funcionais, tendo sempre presente o lugar e as características únicas do espaço onde se pretende intervir, sem nunca perder a sua identificação.
O desenvolvimento deste projecto tem como conceito base a memória do lugar e a sua preservação tanto na relação dos elementos propostos, como na relação da escala urbana e do edifício.
The issue of residence for the senior population to suit the physical characteristics of the population is an immense problem that has several levels. With the rise of life expectancy, the aging of the population and its relation with dwelling it becomes a very real question. The theme “Inhabit and Aging in the XXI century” leads to the analysis of this problematic, showing thus different ways to approach the matter and by consequence, revealing several solutions in what concerns residence to the elderly. One verifies the need to equate new ways to occupy the city and residence, providing and establishing the balance between the needs of this age group with good Architecture examples. The subthemes “Memories and Environments” are two concepts that are interconnected between themselves and Architecture, having an essential role in the construction of a people. These define the reality of a changing society, through its Architecture and the answers to the needs of this evolving population. Architecture is thus formed by several formal and functional choices, bearing in mind the place and unique characteristics of the space in which one intends to intervene, without losing its identification. The development of this project has as base concept the memory of the place and its preservation both in the relation of the proposed elements as in the relation of the urban scale and of the building.
