Rediseño Integral de la Fundación para la Obra de Dios en Guayaquil 4.

Abstract

The project aims to redesign the interior spaces, green and complementary areas of the Pro labore Dei foundation in the city of Guayaquil to turn them into functional, comfortable and safe environments. The foundation is a non-profit organization that works on behalf of low-income people specifically seniors and children. For several years Pro labore Dei has operated in the same facilities with little or no maintenance, therefore, deterioration is observed in its different areas. In addition, the existing design denotes problems such as the absence of storage spaces, poor spatial distribution and circulation according to the function of each area and, the lack of inclusion for people with reduced mobility. The general objective is to redesign the different interior areas, green and complementary areas of the Pro Labore Dei Foundation supported by ergonomic and anthropometric study allowing the result of a functional design proposal, formal and aesthetic for the satisfaction and conformity of users in all activities. For this project, the qualitative method and the project method are used. Through field visits and user interviews, data on existing problems can be collected and analysed. We study typologies that serve as references to the project, establish intervention strategies and create the design concept and moodboard for the proposal. Finally, it elaborates the planimetry, furniture design, architectural visualizations, finished paintings, design of green and complementary areas. In this way, a proposal of integral interior redesign is achieved for the Pro Labore Dei foundation that provides comfort and well-being to its users.
