Um convite para brincar: a cidade, as crianças e seus olhares

Abstract

The appropriation of public spaces in the city has been decreasing in recent years. The protagonism of the motor vehicle, the capitalist advent, and the digital age corroborate the lack of urban spaces and, consequently, the weakening of the sense of belonging and of identity relations. Anthroposophy, a philosophy idealized by Rudolf Steiner, believes that contemporary society affects human beings in their integrity. Contemporaneity, globalization and capitalist logic have created human beings who are victims and prisoners of their own unhealthy conscience and prevent the full development of the holistic being, which is the union of physical, intellectual and sensitive entities. These entities, developed and matured in childhood, must be supported by a healthy environment that guides freedom of thought, being the basis for changing society. The duty of architecture to impose and deform spaces and places is imposed, and fractal geometry presents itself as the best architectural correspondence to the questions and problems presented.
