Diseño de Lodge ecológico en la amazonía ecuatoriana basado en arquitectura vernácula

Abstract

Abstract: This work aims to present the design of an ecological lodge in the Ecuadorian Amazon, based on the principles of vernacular architecture and sustainability. It analyzes the context and various existing conditions, such as the cultural and social identity of the Amazonian region, promoting the use of local materials, traditional construction techniques, and different passive ventilation and lighting systems to minimize environmental impact and connect the proposal with the surroundings in a balanced and harmonious way. Both national and international architectural references are examined, and specific strategies are studied to achieve an optimal approach to context and design. A bioclimatic approach is adopted to support various thermal comfort systems and resource efficiency. The result is a design focused on responsible and sustainable tourism, always considering the ancestral value of local construction techniques.
