PROJECT WORKSHOP
Time Length: 3 days
Place: Universidade IESPLAN, Brasília-DF, 2017

The adoption of “pi” beams made up of pre-fabricated concrete to be reused from the demolition of a big parking building in Brasília as the basic element for the construction for the new necessary infrastructures and public equipment for the park was the initial condition that was adopted by the project. We have departured from the main objectives of preserving the existing water springs, to recover the native vegetation, and to use the park as a pedestrian connection between the existing areas of the neighborhood. We aimed to use the design of the park as a structuring element for the orderly growth of the neighborhood and the urban improvements to be built around it in the future.
