The production of condominiums club in São Paulo in the XXI century - The case of Vila Andrade

Abstract

The objective of this work is to analyze the production of club-condominiums, aiming to understand the relation of the model with the public space in Vila Andrade, district of the city of São Paulo. Based on surveys and mapping of the projects built in the district during the 2000s, the relationship of the model with three aspects is analyzed: 1) spatial segregation; 2) the increase of violence in the public space; 3) public leisure spaces. The conditions used by Jane Jacobs to ensure the diversity of people and the use of public spaces in the districts were used as a basis for analysis. It was thus revealed that the Condomínio-Clube, understood as an urban typology, in the sense that its spatial configurations in the local context have induced new territorial dynamics guided by spatial segregation and social exclusion, has collaborated to reduce the supply of spaces Opened by the municipality. First, the new spatial dynamics occurred in Vila Andrade and a characterization of the district was analyzed; Later the relationship of the Villaggio Panamby Condominium with the public space was analyzed.
