Espaço e experiência: anteprojeto de ambiente corporativo com enfoque em construções sustentáveis

Abstract

With the main objective of developing an architectural project for a corporate building with a focus on environmental sustainability combined with the application of criteria resulting from a performance evaluation method, the guiding principles of architectural design were defined as a focus on sustainable constructions, flexibility and connectivity in work environments. Given the exposed context, it is proposed to develop a preliminary project for a corporate headquarters for a company with creative activities in the city of Natal-RN, based on the experience-space relationship. Bearing in mind the constant evolution of ways of working and their environments throughout history. Taking into account the interference of the environment in people's lives, the proposal for this academic work arose from the question: How do corporate environments react to breaking standards and become increasingly potentiating results, through changes in internal and external spaces? The project methodology consisted of identifying environmental sustainability actions in conjunction with specific standards for the proposed corporate building to be followed during the stages of the design process. In the needs program, the proposal will include meeting rooms, private offices, administrative area, reception, bathrooms, employee area, cafeteria, mini auditorium and shared workstations. Finally, it can be concluded that there is no defined standard or formula for designing sustainable spaces, it is up to the architect to define the actions and principles of sustainability related to the typology and characteristics of the designed building, and thus transform these actions into design solutions distributed throughout the architectural design process. As a final proposal, the work results in the proposition of a ground floor corporate environment, spread over an area of 1,100 m², located in the neighborhood of Lagoa Nova, Natal/RN.
