Abstract(s)
O envelhecimento populacional é hoje um fenômeno observado mundialmente e que
teve início nos países desenvolvidos ainda no começo do século XX. Dentre as inúmeras
preocupações relacionadas ao desafio de proporcionar qualidade de vida adequada a essa
população, destaca-se a oferta de ambientes mais adequados às reais necessidades dos
idosos. Quando se pensa em projetar ambientes para idosos, essa abordagem apresenta-se
particularmente pertinente, tendo em vista que o processo de envelhecimento modifica
profundamente as relações do indivíduo com o seu ambiente. Essas novas relações implicam
necessidades que dificilmente são contempladas pelos ambientes construídos das cidades, os
quais são quase sempre projetados tendo-se em vista o utilizador jovem.
Promover a acessibilidade dos edifícios e dos espaços públicos com ganhos de
funcionalidade, é garantia de melhor qualidade de vida para todos os cidadãos. Ao garantir
autonomia, derrubam-se preconceitos e favorecem-se práticas inclusivas para todos,
principalmente para as pessoas com incapacidades e dificuldades de mobilidade. A cidade e
os seus espaços não precisam de ser adversos, não é inevitável que aconteça. (Portugal,
citado em Guia: Acessibilidade e mobilidade para todos s.d.).
Ao projetar espaços, os profissionais da área de Arquitetura devem pensar nas
condições de acessibilidade e preocuparam-se com as especificidades de cada pessoa.
Assim, o projeto realizado foi de encontro a esta problemática, e é integrado na exigência de
meios e infraestruturas próprios diretamente direcionados para o tema das acessibilidades e
envelhecimento.
Population aging is now a worldwide phenomenon observed and which began in developed countries still in the early twentieth century. Among the many concerns related to the challenge of providing adequate quality of life for this population, there is the provision of environments best suited to the real needs of the elderly. When thinking about designing environments for seniors, this approach has become particularly relevant in view of the aging process modifies deeply the relationship of the individual with his environment. These new relationships imply that hardly needs are addressed by the built environment of cities, which are almost always designed keeping in mind the young user. Promote the accessibility of buildings and public spaces with gains functionality, is ensuring better quality of life for all citizens. By ensuring autonomy, tip up prejudices and to promote inclusive practices for everyone, especially for people with disabilities and mobility impairments. The city and its spaces need not be adverse, it is inevitable to happen. (Portugal, quoted in Guide: Accessibility and mobility for all s.d). When designing spaces, professionals in the field of architecture should think in terms of accessibility and were concerned with the specifics of each person. So, the project was carried out against this problem, and is integrated in demanding media and infrastructures themselves directly targeted to the theme of accessibility and aging.
