El diseño interior en proyectos sociales
(2020) Mejía Coronel, Diana Paulina; Zhindón Duarte, Jonnathan Andrés
This research has a qualitative approach with an exploratory and application scope, and has tried to solve problems in the interior space of multipurpose classrooms in a public child care center in the city of Cuenca, by designing them with low-cost materials, in order to enhance their use. The methodology used was based on a bibliographic analysis of the main materials to be used, and the most common were selected as the basis for the proposals. We worked with the students of the last cycles of the Interior Design Degree of the Faculty of Arts of the University of Cuenca to gather information. Subsequently the students carried out interviews with users, architectural survey sheets, observation sheets in which they discovered the main problems related to interior design. Using the data collected, teachers and students worked together to propose formal, functional and constructive solutions to the multipurpose spaces. In these proposals, priority was given to the use of common and low-cost materials. The draft project was approved by the users based on their needs and experiences in the use of furniture and space. This phase was motivating to start with the management of materials to private companies, the last step was the socialization of the proposals by the students towards the users. At the end of the project, it was possible to see that interior design can solve problems of comfort and use of spaces that are not suitable for low-cost materials, that the development of the activities to be carried out can be improved and that the spaces can once again be potentially useful within the beneficiary community.

Propuesta de diseño interior de una vivienda rural para un adulto mayor, en Cuenca (Ecuador)
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2022-10-18) Fárez Ordóñez, Nelly Cecilia; Mejía Coronel, Diana Paulina
This degree work is based on a theoretical analysis in which the particular requirements and demands of older adults are reviewed within the rural housing space, which may present limitations due to its various construction systems and vernacular materials such as bahareque. From this point of view, two housing references were taken as guides, both functional and aesthetic; the same in which studies have already been carried out and the interior design was applied. Likewise, the rural house of Mrs. María Evangelina Domínguez, located in the El Valle parish, was taken as a case study. Once the house was analyzed, several deficiencies could be found, both interior and exterior, where the most important inconveniences are found in the room of the owner, because it is located on the upper floor, which leads the elderly to have difficulty climbing stairs due to their physical conditions. Also, by not having a wet area (bathroom), it becomes a non-functional space. Finally, the problems found in the home, a proposal was made that resolved the main problems of the user in order to obtain functional, accessible, aesthetic and adaptable spaces for the elderly. In addition, a real budget was generated in conjunction with a valued schedule. It is important to highlight the investigation of interior design to adapt living spaces according to the abilities and difficulties of, for example, an older adult.

The project is divided into three sections: the first chapter presents a conceptual in - vestigation of a museum and an ecomu - seum, its scope and characteristics. We conducted research on the process and history of the toquilla straw hat; regar - ding the property or the building of ecomuseums, we analyzed the distribution of spaces and ergonomics in all of its areas.

An analysis of other ecomuseums around the world, provided great insights so as to recommend new ideas and possible solutions. In the third chapter there is a proposal that encompasses spatial and furniture design in order solve the problems that had been identified. The proposal is based on a complete analysis of everything that surrounds the toquilla straw hat, we developed a conceptual idea that we intend to pass on to visitors, generating proposals of: chromatic, illumination, materials, shapes and style
