Abstract

The present project of title Redesign of the integral spaces of the Foundation "Pro Labore Dei" includes a proposal of interior design, furniture and gardens. The foundation’s facilities are located in the San Pedro Cooperative in the city of Guayaquil. The Foundation is dedicated to providing hospitality and support to older women through activities such as medical care, dancing, flea market, evangelization, among others, at the same time, provides various services to minors. The facilities of the foundation were built several years ago to be a nursery, however, the activities carried out in the establishment have been varying. Due to this situation, in addition to its lack of maintenance, the foundation’s facilities present spatial, functional and aesthetic problems. The objective of the project is to design the spaces of the foundation Para la Obra de Dios de Guayaquil through design criteria that achieve functional, welcoming, safe and aesthetic environments to promote the well-being of users. The qualitative method was used in order to collect data through the site visit, record existing problems, conduct interviews and make the survey plans. Also, the design method was used for the elaboration of the needs program, objectives, analogous models, moodboards, design concept and planimetry. In conclusion, the aim of this project was to create multifunctional and ergonomic spaces promoting the well-being of different users and offering them a better quality of life.
