This work seeks from the urban perspectives provided by Elevado João Goulart, in a context of experience and coexistence, to intensify the relationship of people with the city of São Paulo. The perspectives transcend the visual plane with city landscape. Full of gaps and voids, shapes and events.
Those new characters were inspired by examples like the high line in new york, but with a particular local character. and it is from this that the project starts, from the perspective of everyday life, of a frequenter of the viaduct. recognizing what is necessary In architecture, a new meaning is only possible from the human presence in a territory, transforming uses and experiencing the city in an atypical way, leaving aside the harmful affection that was present there.
