In this context, it is understood that the integration between theoretical foundations and design practices is fundamental to recognizing the experiences and deepening the understanding of the demands of autistic individuals in defining their living spaces. However, it is observed that the direct participation of young autistic people in the design process of their residential environments, especially during the autonomous transition age-youth, is still little explored in both academic research and design practice. This thesis aims to reflect on the inclusion of young autistic people, in the autonomous transition age-youth, in the design process of their residential environments. To legitimize the importance of the active participation of this population in design practice, the elaboration of a conceptual model aligned with User-Centered Design (UCD), Architectural Programming, and Environmental Psychology is proposed. To this end, an applied research study with a qualitative approach was developed, structured in three main stages. The first stage consisted of a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), aiming to understand the relationships between autism, the autonomous transition age-youth, and the built environment, allowing for the consolidation of the theoretical framework and the identification of gaps in scientific production. The second stage corresponded to fieldwork, carried out through semi-structured interviews with young autistic individuals linked to the Federal Universities of Paraiba (UFPB), Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS), and Santa Catarina (UFSC), professionals from multidisciplinary teams working with this population at these universities, and architects with experience in projects focused on autistic people. The third stage comprised data analysis, through Content Analysis, and the systematization of results for the construction of a conceptual model oriented towards design practice. As a main result, a conceptual model is proposed that aims, through dialogue between designers, autistic people, and a multidisciplinary team, to serve as an instrument for creating more sensitive, accessible, and inclusive residential environments.; RESUMEN Dado el creciente número de diagnósticos de personas con Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA), cobra importancia la investigación de métodos participativos y enfoques de diseño capaces de promover entornos más adecuados para la vida cotidiana de las personas con neurodiversidad. En este contexto, se entiende que la integración entre los fundamentos teóricos y las prácticas de diseño es fundamental para reconocer las experiencias y profundizar en la comprensión de las demandas de las personas con autismo en la definición de sus espacios vitales. Sin embargo, se observa que la participación directa de jóvenes con autismo en el proceso de diseño de sus entornos residenciales, especialmente durante la transición a la adultez autónoma, aún es poco explorada tanto en la investigación académica como en la práctica del diseño. Esta tesis tiene como objetivo reflexionar sobre la inclusión de jóvenes con autismo, en la fase de transición a la adultez autónoma, en el proceso de diseño de sus entornos residenciales. Para legitimar la importancia de la participación activa de esta población en la práctica del diseño, se propone la elaboración de un modelo conceptual alineado con el Diseño Centrado en el Usuario (DCU), la Programación Arquitectónica y la Psicología Ambiental. Para ello, se desarrolló un estudio de investigación aplicada con un enfoque cualitativo, estructurado en tres etapas principales. La primera etapa consistió en una Revisión Sistemática de la Literatura (RSL), cuyo objetivo fue comprender las relaciones entre el autismo, la transición a la adultez y el entorno construido. Esta revisión permitió consolidar el marco teórico e identificar lagunas en la producción científica. La segunda etapa consistió en una encuesta de campo, realizada mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas con jóvenes autistas de las Universidades Federales de Paraíba (UFPB), Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) y Santa Catarina (UFSC), profesionales de equipos multidisciplinarios que trabajan con esta población en dichas universidades, y arquitectos con experiencia en proyectos enfocados en personas autistas. La tercera etapa comprendió el análisis de datos, mediante el Análisis de Contenido, y la sistematización de los resultados para la construcción de un modelo conceptual orientado a la práctica del diseño. Como resultado principal, se propone un modelo conceptual que, mediante el diálogo entre diseñadores, personas autistas y un equipo multidisciplinario, busca servir como instrumento para la creación de entornos residenciales más sensibles, accesibles e inclusivos.

The time frame begins with the recording of the first building in the city to use the elevator, an element that enhances the multiplication of the number of floors and ends with the cooling and changing parameters of this type of construction in the municipality. The aim is to study this production through its relations with the city, trying to understand from which contexts it emerged, who were the agents involved and the way in which they were constituted as emblems of modernity in the local imaginary. It also intends to investigate the links, the construction techniques, the architectural languages used and the spatializations developed from then (commerce, service and housing), with special attention to the emergence of a new domestic environment and its acceptance in the city. In order to do so, it raises primary documentation from the period (technical drawings, advertisements, newspapers, legislation, memoirs, etc.), analyzed by means of a bibliographic survey that deals with similar themes at national level, in order to support analyzes, questions and considerations about the progress, with the aim of contributing to the architectural and urban memory of Campina Grande and to studies on verticalization, housing and the city.

In 1771, after the Jesuits’ expulsion, it became Largo do Palácio, the seat of the Captaincy and later the Province. In 1879, it was transformed into the Public Garden at Campo do Comendador Felizardo, with a fence and a bandstand later removed in 1928. By 1933, already named João Pessoa Square in honor of the state president assassinated in 1930, it received the Altar da Pátria monument, marking its political and memorial significance. Using documentary, iconographic, and bibliographic sources, this study analyzes the square’s physical transformations, social uses, and urban memory, highlighting its role as a symbolic space and a place of worship for the mythologized and heroicized João Pessoa.

These limitations compromise the accuracy of longwave radiative heat exchange estimations, which in turn influence the building’s overall energy balance. This study investigated the impact of sky temperature parameterization on the prediction of thermal and energy performance of buildings, aiming to improve the reliability of simulations across different Brazilian climate zones. Four clear-sky emissivity models — Brunt (1932), Clark e Allen (1978), Idso (1981) e Martin and Berdahl (1984) — implemented in the EnergyPlus software were analyzed and calibrated using data representative of Brazil's main climate groups: tropical, dry, and temperate. The results showed that the models, both in their original formulations and in the version calibrated by Li et al. (2017) and implemented in EnergyPlus, tend to overestimate DLR. After calibration, the locally adjusted version of the Berdahl and Martin (1984) model demonstrated the best agreement with actual atmospheric conditions. Based on 577 TMYx weather files, the average radiative sky cooling (RSC) potential across Brazil was estimated at 53 W/m², with a standard deviation of approximately 15 W/m². The potential was higher in dry regions and significantly lower in humid areas. Computational simulations of a single-story reference dwelling indicated that DLR overestimation could lead to an increase of more than 20% in the annual Total Thermal Load, particularly in buildings with low thermal resistance roofing and predominantly nighttime occupancy. Despite the advances, limitations remain regarding the availability of radiometric data and information on sky cover, which still restrict the generalization of the models. These findings underscore the need to expand atmospheric data collection and to further explore the use of RSC as a passive cooling strategy in the Brazilian context. The results enabled the refinement of sky temperature models, enhancing the accuracy of energy simulations across diverse climatic conditions.
