The experiences of Medellín and Bogotá, with the construction of social facilities in deprived areas, inspired a program carried out by the Municipality of Recife called Community Centers of Peace (COMPAZ). From its beginning in 2013, it generated four complexes built between 2016 and 2020. They offer cultural, sports and leisure facilities in needy areas which aid the population in a comprehensive way. This article analyzes how the design of two of these complexes responds to the different urban contexts in which they are inserted. Based on the assumption that they should be landmarks in the urban landscape highlighting a change in State action, we seek to understand how they established a mediation with the place and what strategies were used to make them frank and open to the community. The aim is also to understand how different flows, accesses, and particularities of each use within the building were managed. Thus, this paper seeks to show the potential of architecture to meet urgent social demands. Al igual que otras grandes ciudades latinoamericanas, la ciudad de Recife convive con grandes necesidades sociales, falta de infraestructura y altos índices de violencia. Las experiencias de Medellín y Bogotá, construyendo equipamientos sociales en zonas necesitadas, inspiraron un programa de la Alcaldía de Recife, denominado Centros Comunitarios de Paz (COMPAZ). Iniciado en 2013, el programa generó cuatro complejos, inaugurados entre 2016 y 2020, que ofrecen equipamientos culturales, deportivos y de esparcimiento en zonas necesitadas, brindando asistencia a la población de manera integrada. Este artículo analiza cómo el diseño de dos de estos conjuntos responde a los diferentes contextos urbanos en los que se insertan. Partiendo del supuesto de que debían ser hitos en el paisaje urbano, señalizadores de un cambio en la acción del Estado, buscamos comprender cómo establecieron una mediación con el lugar y qué estrategias se utilizaron para hacerlos francos y abiertos a la comunidad. También se pretende entender cómo se gestionaron los diferentes flujos, accesos y particularidades de cada uso dentro del edificio. Así, este trabajo busca mostrar el potencial de la arquitectura para satisfacer demandas sociales urgentes.
