Feira livre de Igaci: uma proposta de requalificação espacial

Abstract

Street markets are part of the daily practices of a city, they are incorporated into people's lives for a long time and impact on the personal relationships of their users. Those markest are trully relevant for the understandment of social environment in which we live and for understanding the individual. Seen as a cultural activity, the fair expresses habits and acts that allows individuals to act individually, as well as in society, to share the spatiality of the city and comunication modes that are characteristic of this activity. To p r o p o s e a n i n t e r v e n t i o n i n a n y s t r e e t m a r ke t , i t i s n e c e s s a r y t o u n d e r s t a n d i t s d y namics and spatiality. In this sense, understanding the dynamism of the activity in its context and the social and economic identity, recognizing the tradition of the fair for the inner cities, are crucial points for the proposition that aims to provoke positive effects from the understanding of the current activity. The conception of the market's spatial requalification project was guided by respect for the dynamics of the city of Igaci through the proposal to restructure the laundry and public restrooms in the city; the projected draft of the public meat and fish market; and the design of new stalls for the local street market in Igaci, Alagoas, Brazil.
