Patrimônio e paisagem: projeto paisagístico para a valorização da usina Santa Bárbara

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the feasibility of requalifying the industrial complex of the former Santa Bárbara Mill in Santa Bárbara d’Oeste, São Paulo. The focus is on cultural use as a means to preserve and enhance the historical architectural heritage. The study seeks to understand the importance of conserving industrial complexes by examining theoretical issues and intervention strategies. A historical context is presented, highlighting the relevance of the Santa Bárbara Mill in regional development, especially its connection with the sugar mill. As a viable alternative for heritage preservation, a landscaping project was developed, along with a proposal for specific use for each warehouse. The project’s goal is to value and preserve the identity and history of the site. The research aims to provide theoretical and practical information to guide the new project, respecting the identity, history, and culture of the region.
