Centro cultural: a contribuição da música para o desenvolvimento sociocultural do Atuba

Abstract

Music is an essential element in the social and cognitive development of human beings. Also, since ancient times, people have needed a space to share ideas and moments of leisure. In this sense, the spread of cultural centers has allowed communities to integrate, providing this space for society to live together. In this way, this work presents the rationale for the development of an architectural project for a music-related cultural center in Curitiba, aimed at promoting the social and cultural development of citizens in the Atuba region. To this end, the research looks at the origin of cultural centers, the architectural relationship with other monuments and the association with music, highlighting the importance of studying this art for the population and acoustic care to ensure a good experience. The case studies present buildings with similar proposals to this work, helping to understand the compositional, technical and implementation aspects, trying to understand how the program works in an existing building. An interpretation of reality was carried out in order to understand the needs of Curitiba’s residents, choosing the most suitable area for the equipment to be installed, noting the importance of occupying land in a peripheral area of the city, facilitating access to communities further away from the central region. Based on the data analyzed, the design guidelines were developed, aiming for the best program and implementation for the community that will use the space, stressing the importance of the study and living areas. In this way, the insertion of a building of this kind becomes essential to promote the social and cultural development of citizens, strengthening the sense of belonging and connection with the cultural values of the community to which they belong.
