CENTRO DE ACOPIO DE CARTÓN, PAPEL Y PLÁSTICO EN PUERTO AYORA - GALÁPAGOS

Abstract

This project consisted in developing an architectonic design of a Shareholder Center of cardboard, plastic and paper for the city of Puerto Ayora, Galápagos, which contributed to the reduction of the waste that pollutes the Island, where to send by sea to the city of Guayaquil to be transformed into raw material and also for the building will serve so that tourists and the inhabitants of the island can feel encouraged to recycle through craft workshops. Currently, Puerto Ayora does not have a physical space that merges recycling and awareness. The lack of this develops: greater degree of trash on the beaches, streets, flora and fauna affected. Bibliographic and legal data will be collected for the development of the design. Also, three examples of Collection Centers are compared: the first, in Loja; the second in Costa Rica; and the third, in Germany. The center will promote the interest of the inhabitants and residents of the city.
