Proposals for Physical Aspects Community Level Community Self-Help Centre: The proposed Community Centre would be located on the current plot along street 21 and street 7. This vacant plot has large trees, which shall remain, and also an existing open shed. This is where the school was formerly located.

O "Cettro Petit" é o novo "filhote" da clínica Cettro (que projetei em parceria com a Arq. Carla Orsi em 2001 e renovei recentemente). Este pequeno projeto foi concluído no final de 2009 e inaugurado no dia 26 de Março de 2010. Neste projeto, utilizei alguns conceitos de humanização do espaço físico, com adoção de materiais apropriados, iluminação natural e artificial abundante mas balanceada, cores harmoniosas, distrações positivas, etc. O piso escolhido foi a manta vinílica (Absolute Acoustic da Tarkett-Fademac). Nas divisórias utilizamos persianas entre-vidros. A iluminação é projeto da Lampen. No Cettro Petit a criança tem seu próprio cantinho, aonde pode se distrair enquanto espera a consulta ou o tratamento. Fizemos aplicação de painéis fotográficos em alguns locais (o tema do Pequeno Príncipe foi sugestão da agência Athena, responsável pela identidade visual do Cettro). Clique aqui e faça uma visita virtual.

Introduction Usually one of the most frequently asked questions regarding the adoption of different approaches that deal with the issue of informal settlements is: relocate or consolidate? What are the advantages of upgrading and when should this approach be adopted? What are the lessons from the past that we should bring into consideration? It has been said that the relocation approach increases land use efficiency and improves the physical condition of houses by resettling the community in areas that are "more suitable" to urban living standards. Very often, governmental housing agencies rely on purely orthodox methodologies in order to identify the problems faced by poor communities and sele...
