Respiro urbano, Refúgio social. O parque e a rua como recursos de apropriação de espaços livres em Uberaba.

Abstract

The fast pace of global urbanization has made clear the human need for contact beyond production, be it social, environmental or cultural, which points to the need for efficient and systemic use of public open spaces. In this context, research was conducted into the urban landscape in order to understand the differences between space and place so as to use the appropriation of public spaces to make it an effective place to serve the demands of a society, which increases people's quality of life by promoting physical and mental health through recreation and contemplation. After the conceptual study, a neighborhood park project was proposed, with the aim of adding leisure and social coexistence to the municipality of Uberaba, Minas Gerais, serving as an object, with integration into the city's open space system through a garden street.
