RESUMO:
The present research seeks to highlight and contribute to emphasizing urban quality through the city spatial development. The work is a preliminary study for the architectural project for the place called Cais da Memória (Memory Pier), an intermodal cultural complex, located in the banks of the Potengi River, between the city of Natal’s historic center, the monument called Pedra do Rosário, and the community known as AEIS Passo da Pátria, a region of great symbolic and historical value to the city of Natal.The project aims to become a vehicle for the city of Natal’s territorial occupation by land, water, and air, in addition to promote a sense of ownership by the population through a cognitive and sensorial recognition of its geomorphology, history, and memory.The concept of the project calls attention to: 1) The study of references about the main theme of the project such as legal and bioclimatic strategies, tectonic, and architectural composition; 2) Spatial integration through an intermodal network of a public transportation system; 3) The connection between public and private spaces; 4) The configuration of phenomenological spaces; 5) The inclusion of an architectural object in a place of affective significance to the city and its communities.Using these five topics as a method and conceptual tool, the project redesigns and embraces the center of the city urbanity in order to promote encounters, relationships, accessibility, visual and spatial transparencies, permeability, and use them as a revitalization strategy, renewal and redevelopment through urban design and building occupation. Strategically the project establishes an open, visual and spatial integrated architectural model to its surroundings, as opposed to the logic of the segregated models imposed by the real state. The complex aims to become part of the affective dimension of Natal´s population through the intervention and appropriation of a neglected urban context filled with spatial and social segregation, by treating the River waterfront with the same treatment to the oceanic front.Through an architecturally perspective, the project addresses the importance to consider the characteristics of the urban area with its equipment, facilities, and design solutions as a fundamental element to guide and spark the creation of the tectonic and spaces within the project design. The result is a massive body in wood and steel, supported by a portico, which advances over the railway line and the riverbed from which also extend a viaduct and a platform that connect the segregated parts of the urban fabric. In this way, the research contributed to the improvement of architecture solutions for buildings with urban significance and cultural uses, with solutions that embrace and redesign the existing urban network and establish a possible profile that public space should have in order to allow the development of a healthier urban context through the meeting, sociability, and appropriation of the space.
