Resumen
Los paisajes culturales representan una red de relaciones estrechas entre personas, acontecimientos y lugares a lo largo del tiempo: son un símbolo del reconocimiento creciente de los vínculos fundamentales entre las comunidades locales y su patrimonio, entre las personas y el entorno natural y, por consiguiente, cruciales para su identidad. En proyectos arquitectónicos como los de reconstrucción tras una catástrofe, que giran en torno a las necesidades de comunidades diezmadas por un desastre, las decisiones adoptadas se vuelven especialmente críticas, ya que tienen un impacto a largo plazo en la comunidad y su entorno construido. Por consiguiente, hay que tener en cuenta el contexto cultural, social y medioambiental. Este artículo analiza el caso de Khokana, un asentamiento newari tradicional en el valle de Katmandú, para estudiar su configuración espacial, determinada por sus actividades socioculturales, a través de la perspectiva de la memoria colectiva. Por otra parte, se analizan las repercusiones que tuvo el terremoto de Nepal de 2015 en los valores inmateriales y el entorno construido de la comunidad; asimismo se propone la reconfiguración de los proyectos mediante la comprensión del sistema de conocimientos y las prácticas tradicionales de Khokana. En la última parte se propone un modelo para conseguir una mayor adaptabilidad comunitaria manteniendo intactos sus valores y ética del espacio.Citas
