Un hogar para compartir, conjunto de viviendas en Turbo, Antioquia

Abstract

The project “Un hogar para compartir” has as its main objective, to design a community enclosure where the traditional housing of the municipality of Turbo, the inclusive public space and the thought of environmental conscience are complemented.

Having such a large lot area to develop, brought a series of challenges that were able to respond as sensibly and reasonably as possible, integrating both urban and architectural design strategies. In the first instance, the urban theme and how to organize the housing and complementary services was crucial, however, at the same time as thinking about that, also about how the houses would be so that they would have the taste and touch of Turbo.

Several types of devices and strategies that help to have a complete community in services were complemented with the housing, urban facilities such as day care and kindergarten, dance and culture spaces, community halls were integrated. Also within the recreational area was implemented an area of shops and outdoor theater that is connected by the linear park to the wet area of water sprinklers. Likewise, together with the numerous abundance of vegetation, this will strengthen the environmental thinking. Devices to collect rainwater will be located in different points around the houses to supply them.

Without a doubt, this is a project of great magnitude that will generate a great impact for the entire municipality of Turbo, creating an awareness of highlighting and strengthening it much more with projects like this one that includes the community in all their aspects.
