Prospectiva del uso de suelo y cobertura vegetal en el ordenamiento territorial - caso cantón Cuenca
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Arquitectura, 2016-11-30) Pinos Arévalo, Nancy Jaqueline
Models of land use change are a tool for understanding the dynamics in the territorial system. They help establish patterns of use change determined by biophysical, socioeconomic and spatial variables, explore possible scenarios and assess the influence of policies of land use and modify the benefit of land use planning. This paper deals with the study and analysis of land use changes between the periods 1991 to 2001, and projected to the year 2010 and 2030 by Landsat satellite imagery using Geographic Information Technologies.
Evaluación sostenible de los planes directores de Quito. Periodo 1942-2012
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, 2016-11-30) Peralta Arias, José; Higueras García, Ester
Given the great problem of expansion and poor living conditions of the neighborhoods on the outskirts of Latin American cities, a first quick conclusion could be that there were no sustainability criteria in the Urban
and Territorial Planning to control this problem. However, in the case of the city of Quito (Ecuador), we find six Management Plans from 1942 to 2012, once evaluated, based on sustainability criteria established by J. M. Naredo and J. Fariña in the Sustainability White Paper in Spanish Urban Planning (2010), we concluded that the sustainability criteria have been present and were advanced compared to other Latin American Masters Plans in this period. Quito has maintained interest in being a planned city during its different historical stages of growth, unfortunately the reality is not sustainable, settling the problem on a lack of management plans has not
allowed its effectiveness. Now it is necessary that a new vision of the city should incorporate urban management, knowledge of the capacity of the territory, harmonization with the landscape, and the establishment of preventive measures against natural risks and new challenges in the future Master Plans.
Los Suburbios de Córdoba, España
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, 2016-11-30) Vaquerizo, Desiderio; Murillo, Juan F.
Way and beyond ideological mandates that have at any moment in time distinguished legal differences between the area falling within or without the city walls, history shows that ever since it was founded, Cordoba has surpassed the strict limits imposed by its walls to make up a functional unit in which it is impossible to understand the city sensu stricto without its extra moenia area, its suburbia: an ever changing reality whose first sign of transition centers on the network of roads. This in turn becomes a guarantee for access to a second outlying strip (lacking in urban functions but easily accessible and the area favoured by its inhabitants
for their daily activities), and finally to the land on which the city’s economy, political power and prestige depended. The suburbs served as a mirror for the city.
Construir la ciudad: modernidad y neoracionalismo entre el simbolismo y la funcionalidad. Una mirada desde Europa a la arquitectura de América Latina
(Universidad de Cuenca, 2016-11-30) Vivas Ziarrusta, Isusko
This article is intended to alert reflection, from what inquired about certain aesthetic constructive rationalism and international modern movement in architecture, concordant and discordant issues and disagreements, similarities and dissimilarities that do arouse our curiosity from the context of Southern Europe to Latin America. Our attention is so focused through a re-visitation that we would not strung mediating topics and sets out a methodology that synthetically considerations earlier that while platitudes reflect estimates serve to channel issues raised in the intercontinental 'translation' of models whose viability may be more variability in stiffness.
Translation to be completed, not mimetic but problematised translation socio-cultural aspects significant beyond architecture but affect the construction and configuration of the city as functional and symbolic form. Examples peripheral and central city, public square and functional symbolic of neo-rationalism reallocation help us find correspondences with these capitals of the new-old world.
El espacio público dedicado al ocio en el siglo XXI y la búsqueda de los oasis urbanos
(Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo, 2016-11-30) Ipiña García, Orlando
Squares, parks and gardens represent social meeting places dedicated to different recreational, leisure and outdoor activities. These should provide to users a moment of relaxation, enjoyment and carefree. At present, there are interventions more concerned with the physical aspects of the place than with the socio-cultural activities that take place in them. The lack of accessibility, security, offer and a knowledge experience have placed the public space at a distinct disadvantage with private spaces dedicated to satisfying the ludic activities. It is necessary the analysis and identification of physical, social and cultural factors to promote the spatiality of the users, through a playful offer and a sense of security and well-being with the objective of creating a lived experience in the perception of the users. A methodological proposal for the
