Abstract
Un equipamiento está destinado a la construcción de la vida colectiva siendo necesario porque se concibe como un instrumento que ayuda a dinamizar y activar lugares y servicios dentro de la cotidianidad de las personas. La Cabecera Parroquial de Maldonado es una de las 9 parroquias que conforman el cantón Tulcán siendo esta un referente por su abundante flora y fauna nativa, además de ser fuente de abastecimiento de productos agrícolas tropicales a la provincia del Carchi. Dentro de este contexto se evidencia la mala práctica agrícola ya que cada vez la frontera de cultivo va creciendo, dando por desvalorizado el área natural existente esto ha provocado la decadencia del sector del turismo que, aun habiendo el equipamiento, este ha sido abandonado por las autoridades de turno y dejando en el olvido lugares con alto potencial de desarrollo turístico. Es por ello que se busca recuperar estos sitios con intervenciones de bajo impacto para lograr la preservación de la flora y fauna existente y además sea parte de los atractivos a visitar. Con la propuesta urbana se pretende generar un eje que articule los atractivos turísticos y sitios de transición entre lo natural y el medio construido, de esta manera activando sectores complementarios, de esta manera valorizando el espacio público promoviendo la movilidad alternativa. Este proyecto se divide en dos partes; en primera instancia se realizará la intervención urbana formando un Circuito Ecológico y mejorando la movilidad priorizando al peatón y la implementación de elementos arquitectónicos no invasivos dentro de puntos estratégicos, en una segunda instancia se desarrollará un elemento arquitectónico el cual parte de las necesidades existentes permitiendo conectarse al contexto. En conjunto se complementan las partes para el buen funcionamiento del equipamiento.
A facility is intended for the construction of collective life, being necessary because it is conceived as an instrument that helps to energize and activate places and services within people’s daily lives. The Parish Head of Maldonado is one of the 9 parishes that make up the Tulcán canton, being a benchmark for its abundant native flora and fauna, as well as being a source of supply of tropical agricultural products to the province of Carchi. Within this context, poor agricultural practice is evident since each time the agricultural frontier grows, considering the existing natural area devalued, this has caused the decline of the tourism sector that, even with the equipment, has been abandoned by the authorities on duty and leaving places with high potential for tourism development in oblivion. That is why we seek to recover these sites with low-impact interventions to achieve the preservation of the existing flora and fauna and also be part of the attractions to visit. The urban proposal aims to create an axis that articulates tourist attractions and transition sites between the natural and the built environment, thus activating complementary sectors, thus enhancing the public space promoting alternative mobility. This project is divided into two parts; In the first instance, the urban intervention will be carried out, forming an Ecological Circuit and improving mobility, prioritizing the pedestrian and the implementation of non-invasive architectural elements within strategic points, in a second instance an architectural element will be developed which starts from the existing needs allowing to connect to context. Together, the parts are complemented for the proper functioning of the equipment
