Parque ceremonial para el municipio de Armenia Quindío

Abstract

The design proposal for the Ceremonial Park in the municipality of Armenia-Quindío is based on the urban and architectural typological analysis carried out at the national, regional and local levels. Conditions of road accessibility, Topographic, urban, legal and environmental regulations are taken into account to determine the best location for the development of the project. Later, the typologies of the cemetery of Bogotá and the Cenizario de Medellín were confronted and a spatial relationship was evidenced within the most important urban centers, the funerary equipments have a connection to a main road network and their buildings must respond to a symbolic load of the place and for this I look for a theoretical reference of Brutalism as is the case of the Architect Luis Kahn, who handled structural aspects for immortality, pure geometry as a symbolic and hierarchical value, more intense connection between architecture and the environment with constructive materials of the place that will last over time, generating a solution to the current development of the funerary equipment and its complementary uses in the municipality.
