The aim of this monograph is to analyze the ways in which architecture can encourage the practice and dissemination of dance, looking at all the benefits that its exercise has for society. The work was based on a bibliographical survey of the main relevant concepts of dance and architecture. Three case studies relevant to the topic were also analyzed, which served as a reference for drawing up the design guidelines. In addition, the city of Pinhais, the Centro neighborhood and two points of interest for the project were studied: the Pinhais Dance School and the Wanda dos Santos Mallmann Cultural Center. After all the studies and analyses carried out, a needs program was drawn up along with an implementation study aimed at achieving the objectives mentioned.
