Hacia la dignificación del habitante de calle: una propuesta arquitectónica mediante un habitáculo nómada en la ciudad de Bogotá-Colombia

Abstract

This investigation is the result of the design and implementation of a non-static architectural proposal, whose objective is to present a contribution that seeks to dignify the habit of the inhabitants of the street in the city of Bogota. For the consolidation of the proposal, their habitability was identified, through their life stories, their social behavior, routines, routes, activities, places of stay and transit; In this way it is concluded that the streets, bridges, pipes, parks and public spaces are translated into the housing of more than 9.000 citizens who exposed to the weather, condition these places to meet needs for shelter and protection. Based on the above, it is proposed and presented the construction of a non-static cabin, on a real scale, that meets the design criteria and characteristics of the population under study, so that it is appropriated and used according to their needs. The architectural design is accompanied by an ergonomic analysis aimed at identifying the different sleeping positions in their respective surroundings; the photographic records, fundamental in field trips, established the design pattern derived from the most prominent sleeping position, known as the fetal position; later this pattern was inserted in the software “Lyndyhop”, with the aim of creating a symmetrical reticle, susceptible to the fold; the analysis is based on this theory, so that the cabin design meets the characteristics of folding, transport, deployment and collection.
