Rhythm in Urban Planning Plaza Bolivar in Chacao (Caracas, Venezuela) is a place where daily concentrates a large number of citizens. Different groups of dancing, acting and musical have been presented at events held in place, however, the population has not continued the visit frequently to these public spaces due to the enormous intensity of sunlight emitted on the capital, which produce much heat. In Plaza Bolivar was placed a symmetrical roof that shows the colors that represent the Chacao Municipal: orange, white and black.

The roof has a multiple repetition of triangular shapes arranged in a linear grid (open rhythm), leaving empty spaces between those which passes the light, this creates an artistic shading on the ground (see pictures).

This roof has given comfort to citizens who visit this place and in turn has provided an improvement in terms of aesthetics and rhythm at the site.
