Diseño arquitectónico del centro Cultural Ecuatoriano Alemán (CCEA) en Guayaquil.

Abstract

The present work develops an architectural proposal for the German Ecuadorian Cultural Center located in the Kennedy citadel, Guayaquil. The proposed design seeks to integrate the building with the environment and respond to the needs of its users. Based on this, a six-level building will house educational, cultural and administrative spaces, including an area for the Ecuadorian-German Chamber of Commerce. According to the analysis carried out, there is a lack of areas for academic, cultural and administrative activities, as well as the vulnerability of the land to flooding, for which it is proposed to incorporate strategies that allow the optimal and appropriate use of the areas proposed. In response to this, the project emphasizes the incorporation of vegetation and the relationship between interior and exterior spaces. Thus, the design of the Cultural Center is based on functionality and in harmony with its environment, promoting cultural and educational exchange between Ecuador and Germany.
