Favela Rehabilitation

Our proposal foresees a meticulous study of the areas of risk and of the demands of resettlement. As a result we studied the flood areas, declivities, and new accesses to the road system and to the public equipment. It proposes the redeployment of dwellings and relocation of the inhabitants inside the perimeter and resettlement in other areas of provision.

The proposal of integration foresees the construction of a Linear Park that unites the neighborhood, in search of identity, and appropriation of the public space. It makes feasible the connection to the green corridors and to the corridors of predicted transport in the Regional Plan, helping to control the urban expansion and the undesired occupation.
