The project's initial vision to keep the main stream chosen by the community, reinforcing the route and facilitating communication with the population. The use of natural slopes and stands in the two fields are a natural and economical way to provide and ensure privacy and protection for the fields. The furniture stimulates a pleasant place that atract more people into the area. The building materials used were simple to perform without the need of skilled labor, and thus integrate the community into a working system of collective effort, creating a stronger link between the community and the complex. In addition to easy implementation, concrete blocks, tiles of vegetable fibers and the eletrical reused posts, all material have low cost. The posts are still a good way to give a new use for those that no longer have utilities for electric companies. The coverage highlighted the building protects the facades of the direct solar incidence, and detached from the building is ventilated by not transferring heat to the building. In addition, this great coverage collects rainwater for use in toilets and watering plants. The project serves well, all the issues involved, economic, social and cultural.
