Resumen
The present work of degree is to develop the architectural approach of an exposition center of plastic and literary arts for the University of Cuenca and the city, in a place historically representative with the aim of searching an improvement of art and culture in general from de classroom.
The project from its conception becomes antagonistic because it searches for being adapted to the context through the use of its material and volumetric proportions, and providing to the zone with the use of a public space by loosing the corner of its deployment area with the aim of a direct interaction with the user and getting an increase of the social gathering.
The different facts of the sector were a key to the conformation of the project, so were the parameters that we considered: a proper use of the natural and artificial light by the correct systems of an aerial lighting and the use of some holes in the walls for creating a light- shadow effect; and the modulation of the elements and structure for bringing some flexibility to the spaces so they could adapt to different necessities.
