Redesenhando a Paisagem: projeto paisagístico para um trecho da orla do Bessa, bairro de João Pessoa - PB

Abstract

Knowing the lack of quality public spaces, the need arises to think of a public space that encompasses and values all the activities developed in it. A space that promotes physical appreciation, social and environmental aspects of the place, through guidelines that encompass issues related to urban mobility, green areas, preservation of the environment, infrastructure and integration with the city. This work focuses on urban waterfront, where there is a concentration of various social groups that occupy these spaces in diff erent ways and, consequently, with potential interference in their landscape. In these areas, there are several changes in the environment that have great impacts on ecosystems and their natural resources, such as the loss of vegetation cover, resulting from the rapid urban growth, refl ecting on the population’s quality of life. With this, the present study presents a landscape project designed to enhance the natural landscape, implementing sustainable elements in a stretch of the Bessa waterfront, in João Pessoa-PB, focusing fi rst on strategic spaces to better balance public usufruct, environmental preservation and mobility
