Abstract

The objective of this research was to explore the applicability of the methodology used for the study marine organisms of the reef areas in the intertidal region of the broad study of Yellow House Square, Recife (PE, Brazil). Comparing the coastal reef areas to urban areas, it appears that variations in environmental factors also affect reef organisms, especially those living in the region substrates intertidal. The connection between architecture and biology is the starting point of architectural biomimicry, investigate the nature, to emulate or take inspiration how to solve human problems sustainably. The field for application of the methodology of ecological studies for the study of urban areas is promising with obvious cost advantages and ease of application but is still underexplored. We used the software Coral Point V4.1 (CPCE) to calculate the coverage area of vegetation and substrate types; cement, asphalt, concrete, paving, and ground. Measured too air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, brightness, loudness, rainfall and sunshine. The intervention projects if they are based on environmental analysis and the identification of the uses and functions of urban space, present greater potential. The intervention projects if they are based on environmental analysis and the identification of the uses and functions of urban space present greater potential to promote ownership by the population that space, increase tourism and social inclusion of stall holders. The results demonstrated the feasibility of using the study methodology reef areas to assist in the development of projects of urban design and deployment of urban green areas.
