| dc.description.abstract | O artigo contextualiza a “Caixa D´Agua de Olinda”, obra do arquiteto Luíz Nunes, no âmbito da Arquitetura Moderna Brasileira, ressaltando a importância de dois aspectos: sua concepção estrutural, baseada no concreto armado, e as linhas das fachadas, cobertas por elementos vazados pré-fabricados, os cobogós (cujo uso pode ter sido estético ou funcional). Ao final são comentadas as intervenções/renovações na obra realizadas em 1970 e 2008-2010, relacionando-as a questões polêmicas relativas à preservação patrimonial. ABSTRACT The article contextualizes the “Olinda’s Water Tower” – an architect Luiz Nunes’ work - under the Brazilian Modern Architecture’s scope, highlighting the importance of two aspects: its structural design, based on concrete, and the lines of the facades, covered with hollow prefabricated elements, the ‘cobogós’ (whose use may have been aesthetic or functional). At the end are commented the interventions/renovations in the building, carried out in 1970 and 2008-2010 and connecting them to controversial questions related to patrimonial (inheritance) conservation. | pt_BR |
