This project, developed a study of a neighborhood model, addressing urban and environmental needs of a modern metropolis. Developed in Guarulhos, on a floodplain of the Tietê River, one of the most strategic areas of the metropolis, fragmented by highways, railways, and lowimpact urban occupations. The urban, metropolitan, and environmental impact of an area like this is undeniable. Its timeless infrastructures, such as highways and railways, continue to expand their reach, intensifying their dynamics, presenting the challenge of transforming their impact into a positive contribution . With climate change increasing the necessity of green and blue solutions, reconciling their metropolitan potential with a sustainable urban model is crucial. Therefore, canals, streets, parks and buildings were designed and linked to the scope of a new urban dynamic that aims to improve drainage and flood control, balancing urban growth and environmental resilience.

PARK- NEIGHBORHOOD
THE MASTER PLAN
The infrastructure project needed to be modern and metropolitan, to meet the dynamics that the area demands, as well as resilient and river-friendly, and this was guided not only by climate change, but mainly by the characteristics of a floodplain area, occupied in an urban and environmentally reckless manner, in a city with a history of high flooding and droughts, which lacks river-related urban treatment in its public architecture. Canals and lakes were part o f a large small sytems od green and blue urban infrastrucutes. The equipment was designed to meet the basic demands of the project density scale, with its insertion region, also responding to the needs of scale and demand. There are 139 hectares of neighborhood, 72 hectares of which are destined for urbanization, with 200 inhabitants/hectare and 14,457 people.

This project is sudy about the limits of the integration between the urban growth and the conserved nature.
It is also a project about trials of complementarity between the architecture and the urbanism. We propose a design solution, which in addition to dealing with this problem on a city scale, also addresses the housing issue, detailing the type of occupation.
The perimeter canal of this project represents, along with a technical and a infrastructural justification, an ideological justification. It marks the fronts between the city and the forest, by water, in a planned, coherent and necessary implantation in their insertion. Represents a new design discourse for thet popular habition typology that exist in the country, and as well city configuration, where the ‘water path’ is a reference part in its design, not a issue, as it is use to be
THE PROCESS
THE MASTER PLAN OF BARRA DO SAHY
The infrastructure project needed to be modern and metropolitan, aligning with the area’s dynamic demands, while also being resilient and river-friendly. This approach was driven by the characteristics of a floodplain, which has been urbanized in an environmentally reckless manner in a city with a history of severe flooding and droughts, lacking river-integrated urban planning in its public architecture.
The canals and lakes formed a network of green and blue urban infrastructures, designed to enhance flood control and environmental integration. Public facilities were planned to accommodate the density and scale of the project. Similarly, the housing project was developed for a neighborhood with a density of 200 inhabitants per hectare, with one-third allocated for social housing, addressing both urban and social needs.

This project was designed in order to promote urban improvements for the Gazuza favela, in São Paulo, with the chalenging of minimal changes, but with strong and clear concept, on an already hiper urbanized area. The area, lacking infrastructure and planning, and densily populated, after deep group avaluation, contained multiples river source in its paths. For these paths and streets, crowded and already with a consolidated urban occupation, we foresee urban infrastructure betterments and the reconnection of the local population with their native river area, a topic so suppressed in this metropolis.

The intervention route began at this spring and extended to another in the neighborhood, located on a landslide-prone ravine. Some urban infrastructure interventions were also proposed in order to improve the quality of life of the inhabitants. Such as garden pathways, opening and redesigning streets and sidewalks, embankment and treatment for landslide areas, and a community kitchen garden.

This project, developed within the Scientific Research work of the Fluvial Metropolis Group at the FAUUSP Project Laboratory, critically examines the São Paulo Metropolitan Hidroanel, proposing urban fluvial infrastructure for the Pedreira Compartment of the Billings Reservoir. It challenges the traditional urban model, which prioritized road networks over water systems, leading to environmental degradation, public health issues, and urban inefficiencies. The study introduces a metaproject that redefines urban planning by integrating rivers as structuring elements, focusing on the Cocaia branch of the Pedreira Compartment, a highly degraded area along Avenida Belmira Marin, where over 202,000 people commute daily. To restore the region and its water culture, the project develops a redevelopment strategy, incorporating navigable waterways, environmental recovery, and sustainable urban infrastructure, ensuring a resilient and functional urban model. Using a triad-based methodology—place (Where), program (What), and construction (How)—the research establishes a scientific and technical foundation for interventions. Ultimately, it advocates for a new urban paradigm, reinforcing the importance of fluvial infrastructures in sustainable urbanism, balancing navigation, environmental preservation, and metropolitan development.

Pedreira Compartment of the Billings
Reservoir - Branch Cocaia
In the Cocaia branch of the Compartiment, the research developed the project of a waterway of 4.42km long, in order to connect this waterway to the others existing in the navigable axes of the Hidroanel.The entire watershed area was studied to ensure greater precision in decision-making for the project supporting the functionality of this waterway. Special attention was given to the calculations for sizing the sanitation collectors, whose implementation is essential for the proper operation of the waterways, considering that the area suffers from the direct discharge of waste into its tributarie. Two possibilities for embarkation and disembarkation, as well as water-land connections, were studied to explore the concepts of a fluvial city promoted by the Hidroanel waterways.
