Modelagem 3D no design: criação de diorama do cine-teatro Orion de Rio Tinto

Abstract

This project explores the history of the factory town of Rio Tinto - PB, built between the 1920s and 1940s by the Lundgren family, which developed around the establishment of the Rio Tinto Textile Factory. The city’s collective spaces, such as the church, school, club, and cinema, served both as leisure venues and as places for factory workers to spend their free time. Today, the memory of these social spaces is preserved in the stories of former residents and in written records found in books and research, remaining little known to younger generations. With the goal of rescuing and materializing these memories, this project proposes the creation of a digital diorama based on the history of the factory town of Rio Tinto. This three-dimensional model, developed through polygonal modeling techniques, will allow the public to visit the Cine-Teatro Orion, a place that marked the lives of Rio Tinto’s inhabitants during the factory’s period of operation. The project aims to value the history and culture of Rio Tinto by offering residents and visitors an immersive experience in historical settings that might otherwise go unnoticed today
