Afinal, de quem é a escola?: proposta de um centro educacional para o Município de São Mamede - PB.

Abstract

This work presents a proposal, at level of draft architectural project, of a Medium vocational Educational Center for the São Mamede city, Paraíba. The idea for the realization of this research came from some questions abouthow school architecture is treated in Brazil, with emphasis on the small urban centers of the state of Paraíba. It was sought to understand the process of developing the needs programs for Brazilian school buildings and how architecture can contribute to improve them. The project was designed to serve as a community space, escaping from the concept of school only as a place of formation, but understanding its social function transforming it into an environment for the interaction of the population.
