Revitalization of the Peruvian Embassy
BRASILIA - BRAZIL
Due to the years of construction of the Peruvian embassy in Brasilia and the lack of maintenance, a complete revitalization project was developed as well as new areas according to the current needs.
The existing main security cabin was located below the level of the main street, with minimal comfort spaces. In the face of situations such as inappropriate ventilation, circulation, and lack of visual field to identify visitors, the building was totally compromised. Analyzing the characteristics of the terrain, the new security cabin was relocated in order to allow immediate visualization of vehicles and visitors.
The relocation of the security cabin allowed the increase of ceiling height, providing a more comfortable working environment and reducing the need for permanent air conditioning.
The increased dimensions and sidewalk gave greater vision control to the people who work in the guardhouse with main access to the chancellery.
With a revitalization of environments, with its vast majority, the Chancellery received a green architecture with the installation of solar panels on the existing slabs. Only the reception and main access area have undergone a total renovation.
A replacement of all existing materials done to the internal walls and on the layout of the exposed bricks, allowing for a cosmetic renovation, giving it a modern and clean look.
The reception was transferred to the center of the building next to the main entrance allowing better access control and for the general public and facilitating accessibility for those with physical disabilities.
