The project for the Bom Jardim Cultural Center intervenes in an existing building, located in Bom Jardim, in Fortaleza, which already functions as a cultural center. The existing structure is composed of a high roof, thus forming a covered square, where some lower buildings with different programs are located.
The proposal consisted of creating one more complementary construction, to house more support program and another paving intervention and new walls, in the form of a single “entity” that molds itself to the dispersed existing buildings, creating a notion of an exhibition square, endowing the exterior with a greater capacity to hold events and exhibitions, namely for video projection, while at the same time giving the whole a stronger image.
These built plans rise above the buildings, not reaching the roof, and can be read as a single building that creates backgrounds for artistic scenarios, which allow each corner to hold various types of events, creating a scenographic image that is always present and strong.
