Abstract

With 5.500.000 km² and 49.29% of the Brazilian territory covered by this rainforest, the amazon forest is the largest and richest equatorial jungle in the world. This work aims to show a bit of this complexity and proposes a way in which humans could enjoy and learn from experiencing a short time of their lives there. From the idea that living this reality is the best way to understand it’s ecosystem, know the importance of the local enviromental preservation, the focus is try to save the future of the Amazon by showing the people how it is. Although the project concept is not settle large numbers of people there, we may take into account that the Amazon we see today would not be at least 75% of what is today, thank to the 5 milion natives. who lived there in the pre-colombina age, spreading the terra preta through large territories. So, yes, the amazon was half built by human beings. This work aims to prove how humans and raw nature could be the perfect match, and maybe a solution for this apocalyptic low quality metropolis that are happening in south america.
