completed

Situated in the most important axis of commerce in Madrid.This building tries to recover the economic activity of these area stimulating the flow of people to come.The building is composed by concrete plates used to introduce 24h program around the patio(where the communication goes).The superposition of the programs schedules keep the activity alive and increase the safety during 24h.The transparency keeps the relationship between inside and outside of the building and intensify the public carachter.The structure is modulated by a triangular mesh wich allows certain isotropy in the formal design.

PUBLICATIONS

The main idea was to keep continuity in the street creating a free floor and to make this building a protective cover against the sun of Damascus recreating the souk atmosphere.The program organizes in differents floors differents levels of pri-vacity.From the most public areas on the ground(train and subway) to the most privated(office and theater in the first and residential in the second floor).The building is structured by 11 elements called “light cones”that gather in the same core communication,light,ventilation and struc-ture; trying to make the remaining space as flexible as possible.Light cones adapt to diferent fonctions in the building.In the base-ment they bring light(using diagonal walls).In the ground floor these diagonal walls open the space in between structures to create a main route.The 1st floor is an “open- space” where everything is organized around the core.In the 2nd floor the diagonal walls become vertical to participate as a side of a communal patio that distribute housing all around.

CasablancaSchool project2011Comercial Center20.000m2

completed

The proposal is to create a commercial space that fits rigorously in Casablanca ‘s fabric. All the streets keep the continuity through the building in order to preserve the urban atmosphere inside of the building.The building is divided in 2 parts,each one has his own open-central space.On the ground floor there is a covered plaza, char-acterised by the permeabilty ,where the street market activity is developed.On the first floor there is a a shopping mall along a com-ercial street (8 shape) that cross the road through a bridge and con-nect the 2 sides of the urban space.Finally the mall is coronated with restaurants,sport center and a school.

HanoiSchool project2009Mixed program tower80.000m2

completed

The proposal is to create a new concept of tower, which attempts to break with the hierarchy, isolation and coldness, proposing a cer-tain mix of uses in a vertical way regarded as “micro-neighbourhoods” interspersed with some lobbies.Thoses lobbies become social meeting points, because of the existence of gardens, salons and commerces.Due to this kind of vertical urbanism,it is established a particular relationship between different uses and reflects the multifunctional-ity and diversity that exist in a city. Lobbies are interconnected by a spiral ramps that allow the possibility to walk up the tower without using stairs and creating a human relationships between programs.

Navafria(Madrid)School project2009Mountain retreat1.500m2

completed

The shelter is located between two hills right next to a river.The main idea is to extend the mineral world and connect the two hills.The cantilevers cover the swimming area in order to cre-ate an inside atmosphere.On one hill we have the most public areas(living rooms,restaurants,reception, acces to swimming area), on the other hill we have the rooms.Connecting the 2 sides there is a bridge-bar that allows hikers and skiers to cross but also guests to cross from the rooms to the public areas inside the building.This complex works as well in summer(swimming, hiking)as in winter(skiing).The materiality and the conceptualization re-spect the environenmment in order to avoid ruptures with the land-scape.The shelter provides energy to satisfy his own demand with geothermal and hidraulic power.

MadridSchool project2009Residence tower18.000m2

completed

These towers are designed for a residential use but also for the in-troduction of a skyline reference in madrid.3 towers on a commercial podium where street life happens.The acces to the residential tow-ers is made by 3 ramps that end at the entrance.Between these 3 tow-ers there is an isolated garden from the public space where propietary could have more privacy.The facade is composed by a modulated system of wooden slats that offers,in complement with the terraces’s gaps,a vibration effect in the facade.

MadridSchool project2009Residence 800m2

completed

The principal composition is an addition of diferents boxes leaving 5 voids as a patios between them.These patios are very characterised by their use and their materiality.There is one for the entrance,one for service area and othe for commun areas.A part from that there are two more,with more privacy,between rooms.Nature goes to the heart of the architecture through the patios meanwhile architecture extends, with walls, into Nature as well.The whole project is in concrete and some of the walls facing to the patios are made with translucent concrete.The dialogue between nature and architecture is constant and empha-sized with the materiality used.

MadridSchool project2009Urban activities1.500m2

completed

This project focus on resolve problems about voids in Madrid’s urban fabric.The porposal is a container cube that could be trans-ported and stacked easily.This Cube deploys,become a “wooden tap-estry” and colonize territories that are out of use to restore the urban activty.These modulated “wooden tapestries” combined can oc-cupy any empty space with flexibilty.In each module we can place vertical metal structures and use them to cover temporal spaces for urban activites.
