   can improve the quality of life of the people who use them. A design
   suitable can create attractive, functional and comfortable spaces, which
   promote the well-being of citizens and promote social activities and
   recreational.
2. Promotes identity and a sense of belonging: Architecture can
   reflect the identity and culture of a community, generating a sense of
   belonging in citizens. By investing in quality architecture in the
   public spaces, emblematic places can be created that become
   into symbols of the city or neighborhood, thus strengthening the emotional connection
   of people with their environment.
3. Tourist and economic attraction: An outstanding architectural design in the
   public spaces can become a tourist attraction, generating a
   positive impact on the local economy. Tourists often visit and enjoy

   designed can promote social gatherings and activities, promoting
   interaction between people and strengthening community ties. This
   contributes to creating greater social cohesion and promoting participation
