"Out Of Sight" - Sustainable Social Building Project

Luan Fontes presents "Out Of Sight," a groundbreaking sustainable social building project designed to address the lack of infrastructure and planning in Friars Island, Rio de Janeiro. The project aims to provide essential facilities for the local community, including a dance school and emergency social housing, while respecting the environment and promoting a sense of belonging.

The project, located on Friars Island, utilizes 42 containers to create a dance school and emergency social housing, with a focus on fast and accessible construction using environmentally friendly materials. The design emphasizes the need for cultural preservation and decent housing for the island's remaining population, highlighting the impact of gentrification.

Constructed using steel as a constructive system, the project prioritizes lightness, practicality, safety, and environmental friendliness. The 620m space is built to meet the urgent needs of the residents, providing thermal insulation and temporary shelter while respecting the local environment.
