All the square was built 1m higher than the contamined ground, and the space is almost a boat made of **certified wood** that floats over a green-recovered forest, with **plants and tree species from different regions** of Brazil. The former use was an garbage incinerator (the chimney is still there), which made the soil and the water disrupted. It´s a long process of recovering nature and preservation consciousness, and the spaces distributed through the square represents this idea with laboratories, cultural spaces for different ages and a little museum. The construction and mainly the processes showed here are widespreaded. In adition, the **use of led lamps, reuse of steel** complemented with material from other regions, **use of reforestation species** and certified wood encloses the soul of this special place.
