Circulation++Architecture



The vertical and horizontal movement of a building are the elements that are most important because thanks to this we can achieve cominucacion of space both vertically and horizontally , this communication can be performed using various resources such as bridges, stairs, lifts or ramps to facilitate interaction of building elements



in the first photo is the building of the Universidad Central de Venezuela for Sanitary Engineering , which is one of the most important works of art made by Villanueva,since the integration of space with patios and balconies were enlightened on thesepatios are really impressive and despite having a staircase that connects the different levels not seen the separation of each of them, but it reads as an integratedcommunity belonging to the void of light.



In another example , we have the Aula Magna of the Universidad Central de Venezuela and in this case the connection is achieved through the use of rampsthatintegrating effect and generate a continuous reading of the elements, creating amuch nicer flow is involving over the route allows yougreater enjoyment .

finally in the sample three buildings located in the city of Barquisimeto see how the stairs if tangentially separate levels of this apartment building and there is nointeraction between them , this happens for the use of a continuous form of stairsmany times this acopañado elevator that also makes for vertical circulation
