Requalificação do Parque Débora Paro, Colina - SP

Abstract

Living the city is also about enjoying its structure and discovering new forms of appropriation. Free spaces are considered one of the main urban infrastructures which, as they are places of permanence or circulation, are where much of daily life takes place. When thinking of these spaces as a system that promotes social exchanges and human interactions, their qualification, besides stimulating democratic appropriation, enhances them as socio-spatial relationships and better conditions for carrying out daily activities. Built in the 80’s to solve a drainage problem and promote leisure for the population, Débora Paro Park is one of the main free spaces in the city of Colina (SP) and a central element in the composition of the urban landscape. In this sense, the purpose of this work is to requalify and revitalize the area, based on the elaboration of new perspectives for the use of space that promote the appropriation and, thus, the vitality of the place. For this, the urbanistic proposal will reconcile the need for leisure and culture with the environmental potential of the place, producing a more attractive place, with appropriate infrastructure for the scale of the city and reaching different age groups, promoting both the diversity of people and uses, colors, species, textures and sensations, in order to develop new meanings and experiences for the population of Colina.
