I also built a map of the city's urban mobility. Combining the two maps, I identified a large area of the city that did not have the equipment, but had

Taking into account this junction area between the two maps, the chosen land is close to various cultural, educational, and leisure facilities, which could be integrated with the library.

LOCAL COLLECTION

SPECIAL COLLECTION

With a built area of 9.640,7m², the library's proposal seeks to promote the democratization of reading, access to knowledge, and social development, in a national context with a still high rate of

illiteracy and a lack of urban facilities that promote reading.

As a result, a study of the flows and functioning of the equipment was made, dividing the equipment into 9 sectors.

Therefore, virtual and physical volumetric studies was carried out.

These studies aimed to build a volume that took advantage of climatic conditions and had a better division of uses, creating two

IMPLANTATION PLAN The implementation aimed to integrate the building with the free areas of the lsite and use these spaces as a public square for leisure, with a children's area and pet area, and plenty of local trees. The main access is through the right block and the parking lot is accessed through the left block.

02 BOOK BOOTH MICROLIBRARY PERSONAL PROJECT FORTALEZA/ BRAZIL 2024

Continuing with my experiments with library architecture and understanding the

importance

of

reading,

I

am

developing a project for a prototype of a Book Booth. Inspired by the micro libraries of SHAU firm and Story Pod by Atelier

Kastelic

Buffey

these

small

equipment would be much easier to implement in a city like mine and in regions of Brazil, which lack libraries, but where building large equipment is expensive and unfeasible, and can take years.

13

0 2 BOOK BOOTH - MICROLIBRARY

PLAN The objective is for the booths to be places for exchanging books and reading, which can be flexible, with spaces to listen to audiobooks and Wi-Fi, providing a meeting point for the community. Furthermore, the project seeks to encourage reading, bringing reading into the daily lives of people who do not have access to a library, and can have different uses, such as a book club and hosting other media such as comics or films.

This solution uses local materials that are easy to access and build, such as concrete and the use of cobogo to allow ventilation and light to enter. The equipment can be installed in parks and squares, but even schools, universities and public facilities, being modular and easy to build anywhere. It can be opened in covered places or with doors with seats that can be closed for better security. They also bring the identity of each community, with graffiti-style paintings.

03 ICE CLINIC ADMINISTRATION AND MEDICAL OFFICE PRACTICE EXPERIENCE FORTALEZA/ BRAZIL 2020 - 2023

Between 2020 and 2023, I had the opportunity to work as an intern at Camila Bandeira Architecture firm, where I worked with interior architecture,

residential

and

commercial

architecture. During these years, I had an active participation in all stages of each project, from site visits to execution.

0 3 ICE CLINIC - ADMINISTRATION AND MEDICAL OFFICE

In many projects, I carried out site visits through all parts of the

project,

taking

measurements of the location and documenting the details of the

environments

where

the

projects would be carried out.

Two projects in which I had the greatest participation were the interior architecture of Clinica ICE,

in

Fortaleza,

which

in the

administration room and one of the consulting rooms.

I was active from the creative process and brief, to the details of

ADMINISTRATION ROOM The objective of the administration room project was to be a sober but comfortable place for the clinic's employees, in a way that facilitated access to documents and security cameras, requiring many cabinets and the computer desk to be an existing table.

TECHNICAL STUDIES PRACTICE EXPERIENCE AND ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE FORTALEZA/ BRAZIL 2023

I had experience with technical details both at

university

and

during

my

architecture

internship.

As an undergraduate, my technical studies were more focused on street furniture and

creative design ideas. In my final project, Moisac - Fortaleza's Public Library, I carried out a more in-depth study of two notable features

of

my

project:

the
