Diseño interior de un taller-museo dedicado a la elaboración de macanas. Caso de estudio: “Casa de la Macana” ubicado en Bullcay perteneciente al cantón Gualaceo

Abstract

This project will deal with the approach of a new type of museum for the exhibition of textiles - Macana. This design will be focused on highlighting the different techniques of macana making as well as its beauty, functionality and aesthetic value. Represented in each exhibition space in conjunction with materials, techniques and finishes related to the conception of these textiles, both in form and function. To carry out this project we will start with a theoretical research with graphic content of the different points that include the importance of heritage elements, the study of the different functions and needs within a museum, the specific analysis of textile exhibition and all the requirements involved, as well as the clear investigation of the concept, techniques and materials for the elaboration of the macana. This first part of the investigation will be destined to the first chapter of the work. The second chapter will be a study of the regulations for the functionality of a museum together with the analysis of the space to be intervened with the new design proposal, based on the analysis of two references that will provide information on spatial and aesthetic functionality of each of the spaces to be intervened, as well as to meet the needs of both the pieces to be exhibited and their visitors, defining the style, function and form that will be generated in the design. Thus, an optimal design proposal for a Textile Museum will be generated, developing a project for an existing textile museum with the needs and poblematics proposed for each of the spaces to be developed. The design proposal will provide each of the specifications necessary for its correct understanding in the development of the project both in 2D and 3D, as well as the final proforma with the total value of the construction of this project
