Abstract(s)
A evolução natural da sociedade dita, em grande parte, a transformação constante e progressiva da estrutura da Cidade, como resposta as necessidades de quem nela habita, já que os estilos de vida mudam, as vivências pessoais e sociais alteram-se e o quotidiano vai sendo cada vez mais pautado pelo uso de tecnologia.
Se, por um lado, o ritmo frenético dos citadinos conduz a rotinas inconciliáveis com momentos de descanso, por outro, e paradoxalmente, torna emergente a aposta nos espaços públicos que promovem as relações de proximidade e de lazer, e é neste ponto que os parques urbanos assumem preponderância.
Contudo, existem inúmeros espaços públicos que ficaram esquecidos devido à inexorabilidade do tempo - os “lugares expectantes” - e, por isso, não conseguiram acompanhar esta evolução natural da cidade ou, outros ainda que, opostamente aos primeiros, servem os propositos da sociedade contemporânea, mas limitam a sua existência â facilitação do fluxo de pessoas ou bens, como é o caso dos “não-lugares”.
O Parque Urbano de Picoutos é um caso cujas caraterísticas de existência e de utilização em muito se assemelham as dos não-lugares e, sobretudo, as dos lugares expectantes. Por este motivo, o estudo destes dois conceitos, mais particularmente a análise das intervenções, no âmbito do design, que foram capazes de os mudar de registo, permitiu que se estabelecesse um paralelismo entre eles e o contexto em que está
inserido o Parque Urbano de Picoutos.
Esta reflexão constitui o mote para a proposta de projeto, cuja temática se centra no papel do design enquanto disciplina responsável pela transformação e revigoração de um espaço urbano destinado ao lazer, através da interatividade estabelecida entre citadino e lugar.
The natural evolution of society dictates mostly the constant and progressive transformation of the city structure, as a response to the needs of the inhabitants, since the ways of life, personal and social experiences change and daily life are increasingly guided by the use of technology. On the one hand, the frenetic rhythm of the city leads to irreconcilable routines with moments of rest, on the other, makes the bet in the public spaces that promote proximity and leisure relations, and this is where the urban park areas assume preponderance. However, there are many public spaces that have been forgotten due to the inexorability of the time - the urban voids - and therefore they have not been able to follow this natural evolution of the city. Others, or, still others, that, opposed to the first ones, serve the purposes of contemporary society, limit their existence of facilitation of the flow of people or goods, such as non-places. Picoutos Urban Park is a case whose characteristics of existence and use are very similar to non-places and urban voids. For this reason, the study of these two concepts, more specifically the analysis of design interventions, were able to change them, allowed the establishment of a parallelism between them and the Picoutos Urban Park”s context. This reflection is the motto of the project, whose theme focuses on the role of design as a discipline responsible for the transformation and reinvigoration of an urban space, destined to leisure, thanks to the interactivity established between citizen and place.
