Abstract

The general objective of this architectural project is developing of an architectural proposal that includes the design of functional spaces necessary for the development of educational and cultural activities in the Cultural Center for community 3 of Bucaramanga. This objective is based on the definition and functional characterization of a cultural center as an urban facility; So, the architectural object becomes a solution for the social and educational needs of the community. The area where the project is proposed has residential and commercial use, although industries predominate. In this way, the analysis of the site and the field work showed the absence of facilities for the development of communal, cultural and educational activities. Thus, the projected spaces seek to optimize the social, educational and cultural processes of the community. The architectural project is located near: the Simón Bolívar Pilot School, the Santa Teresita Mother-Child Intermediate Unit and the Banco de Alimentos Foundation, the San Vicente de Paul Parish of the Archdiocese of Bucaramanga and the Santo Tomás University. As a final result of the proposal, an integral design is achieved, thus providing a solution to the needs identified in the community; also reaching a logical and sensitive relationship of each of the elements that comprise it, a visual and harmonious set where there are classrooms dedicated to the arts, dance, music, theater, exhibitions, multiple use and, finally equipped with a playroom.
