Tuca Vancells
This is a summary of my most representative works as a student and as a young architect. A conceptual display of 16 projects with the purpose of exposing my reflections about the world where we are living from the anthropological, spatial, formal and creative point of view that architecture may provide. The projects are located in a variety of scenarios, examples of the relationship between human beings with ourselves and with our environment and its reciprocal and constant transformation. They talk about the reconstruction and rehabilitation of the contemporary western metropolis (as an alternative to
the urban sprawl); about spaces of high complexity where economic, cultural and bio-environmental dynamics, don’t seem a priori, to achieve a meeting point; about the disappearance of the city limits and the unstoppable domestication of wild nature and landscape colonization. These topics are treated at different scales depending on the project demands, from the dwelling to the building, the city and its hinterland. Hereby I declare willing to reinforce my responsibility and compromise as an architect towards society to build a worthy and comfortable human space and a more sustainable world.

“Picornell” Olympic Pool, St. Jordi palace and the Olimpic stadium. IBE off.
Barcelona Sports Institute is a city council organism responsible for the management, upkeep and promotion of the sport buildings and events of Barcelona. Some remarkable events in the city, such as the European Athletics Championship or the last stage of the “Tour de France”, were the reason for the improvement and renewal of their headquarters. The works and maintenance department of the IBE was in charge of the interior renewal and the supervision of the work as well as the design of some furniture. The offices are part of “Picornell” Olympic Pool

Complex. A two story, sixty meters long, block with a façade towards the east, facing the Olympic Stadium and the other, the west one, is looking towards the indoor Olympic pool. Both levels are similarly organized. A central reception lobby divides the building into two parts. One is an open office space with a row of private bureaus like theatre boxes leaning out to the pool. The other has a restroom core linked to the lobby and protecting the institutional area, with political, management and press offices as well as meeting rooms.

Building density and activity mixing turned this place into one of the smallest, most transited crossings. When the city council limited the cars entry, their number considerably decreased leaving a street furniture surplus, an invisible palm and an inadequate pavement. The purpose was to get rid of the obsolete traffic equipment at the time we provided a special entity to the space. We used the fact of the palm to turn it into the symbol of the crossing.
The granite stone pieces circular arrangement makes obvious the presence of the palm tree and gives the impression of unique, single and outstanding place. Street furniture elimination allows the space to breath. The aim to achieve is to perceive it as a square more than a simple crossroad. This is just the first phase of the project. A public space does not belong to the collective conscience until it offers a long-term activity in which users who live there can take part.

Sketch of first ideas
at 038 Arquitectura Team: Eva Gayolà, Albert Santaló, Carles Tuca Location: Les Comes residential, Sils, Girona, Spain Budget: ± 170 000 eur The project began with a ground floor plan provided by the clients and the condition of a possible posterior construction of a mezzanine. Due to administrative restrictions, we were able to build just a single-story house. A good control of the house’s height was necessary to dissemble the intentions of the owners. The challenge was to make the space under the roof as tall as possible while pretending the house to be as low as we could. A succession of three different volumes
respond to the different functional divisions of the plan. Inside, spaces of different height are expressed, outside, with different roof composition. Imperfect symmetry unifies the volumes keeping the same façade height in the entire perimeter. This fact added to a hipped-shaped roof give the impression of a lower construction. Eventually, the client assumed the risk of a gabled roof in order to gain more for its mezzanine space.

Just three exterior walls rise up from the original building. They enfold an 80 m2 surface close to a square. Next to the west façade is possible to intuit a small annex. The ruins show the existence of a two-story house with a gabled roof. The rests of the building are located in the «Solà de Badós» neighbourhood, on the sunny slope of a mountain, in a big clearing of a forest reserve. There are more house, some ruined, some restored. Can Salvi, together with the other cottages, belongs to the rural landscape and its history.

The proposal is based on the town-planning regulations and the client’s will. He does not want the exact restitution of the building, but he wants to keep the old cottages’ style. The volume leans on the existing walls, without big windows and following the formal criteria of the area’s rural architecture. The day zone is in the ground floor, it conserves the original space, in the exception of the bathroom and the stairs. The night zone in first floor, it is much more comparted in rooms and an open space that can be closed up too.

Fort Kochi is the most important island (a peninsula indeed) in the harbour of Ernakulam, the ancient delta of the Periyar River. Due to its good climate and strategic position, it has been for centuries a global commercial port in which even Roman merchants sailed to buy pepper and sell it in the Empire. Nowadays all the commercial activity moved to the prosper city of Ernakulam and Fort Kochi remains as an Indian colonial vestige for its visitor delight. Spice Harbour was and old Dutch warehouse of Fort Kochi, rehabilitated into a small hotel of

14 rooms + 2 suites. The square-shaped plot has a main road in one side and the sea in its opposite. We can distinguish four different parts: two long blocks by the sides facing each other, a newer building in blue and a central garden. The bigger block became the room area and the other a restaurant, while the blue building turned into the staff/logistic core. The old custom court is now a green lawn with a pool opened to the fabulous harbour waterscape in one end and an outdoor lounge/reception protecting it from the street in the other.
The blue building keeps the aesthetics and dimensions of the urban landscape

Molins de Rei is a small city of 24.800 inhabitants in the metropolitan area of Barcelona. To maintain and protect its architectural heritage, the council of the town ordered an architectural heritage conservation plan. A catalogue that collects all the ancient buildings and its singularities of the densified area and its surroundings within the administrative limits of the municipality. It is also a set of regulations and legal mechanisms to improve the architectural and urban heritage protection and ensure a better urban development in the target areas.

This catalogue provides a protection level to a list of buildings and explains façade by façade, all the elements to be preserved, modified or removed in each one of them. During the process, more than 500 buildings where measured, photographed and analysed. Part of the analysis consisted in flatting the buildings to 2D in Photoshop, pic by pic and then match them up in more than 20 explicative façades, called urban fronts. I directly assisted Carme Bosch Arauz in this project, architectural heritage specialist and director of the heritage urban plan.

Calzarello tower
for 038 Arquitectura
Partnership: 3D consultant
Team: Eva Gayolà, Albert Santaló, Carles Tuca Location: Prunelli di Fium’Orbu, Haute-Corse, Corsica, France Budget: ± 300 000 eur
2012 | 41 59 16 N / 04 26 18 E
Calzarello is a leisure and touristic spot on the east coast of Corsica. The building is isolated but not far away from the main touristic focuses and next to the mouth of the Fium’Orbu River in the middle of an endless sandy beach. This protected environment offers an exceptional and privileged location to carry out activities related with tourism. The preliminary design attempts to give the owners an idea of how to materialize their dreams. Roof plan
sc1_1000
The tower must be an iconic attractor. It gets rid of their annexed volumes and its structure is undressed leaving the tower as it is. The purpose is to let people feel the purity and majesty of the tower while it opens towards its surroundings. The rehabilitation of the slabs and the roofs creates a close-to-open gradient of spaces giving the user different possibilities of experience with several degrees of communication with the environment. A new light outdoor stage, next to the tower, completes the gradient sequence.

The project is composed by three modules that search the best orientation depending on the activities that they hold. In the ground floor the room’s module turns towards the east, protected by a circulation stripe in the west. The collective zone of the house opens completely towards the south. The last module is a mezzanine that looks to the landscape.

The building structure is made of cross-laminated timber panels. This material makes walls thinner, that is to say, a higher surface efficiency. The weight of the main structure is reduced nearly to the half, lowing the foundation costs. It also accelerates the construction and makes it smarter.

Public space model of the Barri Vell in Girona
The project takes place in Girona’s downtown, an old neighbourhood located between a river and the foot of a mountain. The steep slope completely conditioned the urban landscape, its mobility and accessibility. The urban proposal consists of the creation of two big green spots and three accessible paths that begin at the other side of the river and end at the highest points of the old town. The paths play with the void and the full trying to preserve the medieval landscape. This concept is developed
in a derelict theatre. The building shelters a multipurpose cultural facility. The aim of the project is to extend the public communication into the “full” space achieving a continuous and fluid path that mechanically connects the streets at different levels. Moreover, it is supposed to create a distribution space -void- that works as an active element capable of bringing the centre -full- activities into it. An intervention sequence is followed in order to reach the goal.

The intensive exploitation of the lagoon and the continuous decrease of the river flows has entailed the degradation of a unique habitat, increasing water salinity and the probability of floods. There are three main factors to care about: the natural space, its inhabitants and tourists. The intervention must reduce salinity to augment the vegetation that stops the floods while keeping the lagoon as a commercial and industrial support. We divided the project into two parts. A
Formal Concepts
central void that constitutes the urban park: a natural water treatment plant of macrophytes, plantation of robinia pseudo-acacias and the recovery of the Sacca as ancient terrain of fruit cultivation of the lagoon. And a ”full” proposal which consists of a coastal membrane that manages the processes depending on their intensity: an ecopark that works as distributor and separator of waste, a harbour, a show room pavilion, a natural museum and new dwellings.

The bed of macrophytes slows down the water flow, helps the settling of suspended solids and keeps the water partially oxygenated. Their stems provide support for bacteriological cultures, the main element for natural water purification. These plants also hold the sea tide and help towns to prevent floods.

3D Model of the proposal
(low level)
(medium level)
The project is developed in a ruined sanctuary. It is located at 1500 meters high next to a ravine followed by a plain. The high presence of vultures and lenticular clouds in sunny days reveal the existence of hot rising air currents. The orography and the weather conditions make the place ideal for hang gliding and paragliding. The plan is to rehabilitate the ruins not only in meanings of construction but also recover the sanctuary as a place of our times.
The concept consists in an integrator element that provides reinforcement to the sanctuary’s walls and the base structure for the new uses. The base structure is an expanded steel platform that regularizes the ground letting the place to be visited, giving continuity to the GR paths and creating gliding springboards. The mountain refuge is totally integrated with the sanctuary, constructed on the foundations of the hermit’s old house.

The building had to fit in a volume of 36 x 12 x 36 m. The dwellings were supposed to have a surface around 30 m2 and there should be as much dwellings as possible. In order to follow those statements was mandatory to organize the building in just one staircase and external corridors. The dwellings are 3,4 m wide, 9,5 m long and 3,8 m tall and north – south orientated, the best orientation possible in Catalonia. The private cells include a light and closed structure where
Study skecth
the wet spaces, the storage and a sleeping room are set up. This way, the cell is divided into three parts. The entrance is the most public and collective space. The second is this light element, temple of privacy. The third is a more private but collective space. The light structure distributes, multiplies and defines the spaces; the project achieves a compact dwelling without rejecting privacy and without refusing comfortable and wide rooms.

In 2009 the subject of the festival was collapse, in all levels: economic, ecological and social.
“Xarxa Delicada” -Delicate networkpassed the selection to be exhibited at the CCCB museum. The installation plays with shape to express collapse. It consists of a closed and stable structure of lineal elements made with wooden sticks that represents reality. The simplest structure that obeys these conditions was an element formed by four segments that crossed one with the other, at least, three times. We represented two types of nets. The first one is more extensive and flat. Shapes share
their elements to generate the net. This kind of net attempts to represent how oriental societies and philosophies work. Oriental society and its dynamics have much more collective spirit than others. The second net is compact and cloudshaped. It has a more hierarchal structure where elements work one after the other, but not together. They don’t share the content but the container. This kind of net is like occidental societies, they tend to create more egoist, selfish and individualist dynamics.
We considered this simplest structure a Fractal: an element that could be repeated infinite times to create bigger structures with the same properties.

I hate the keyboard was a team of three members, Hugo Pibernat and Joan Martin as software implementers and me as graphic designer. The aim of the team was to design, implement and release Yksi, an Iphone app. Yksi consists in a social media app to take pictures and share them with others. It is a new way of enjoying a conversation without words but photographs. I hate the keyboard made an app to make people able to talk without typing a single letter. The event sequence in the program takes place as follows:
Yksi was released on the AppStore in autumn 2011 and was working during a whole year with more than 50 registered users, while all the information could be hosted in a server of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. After the final thesis defence of Hugo Pibernat, the server was no longer accessible and the experiment concluded.

Impressora RepRap BCN3DR
Bust of myself - Polylactic acid (PLA)
Just a few years ago, mainly thanks to the open-source RepRap project, stereo-lithography stepped out from laser based 3D printing farms and highstandard design industry into fab@ home technology. This paradigm shift make additive manufacturing nearly accessible to every small and mediumsized business. This technology opens an entirely new bunch of complex and more organic shapes, once bounded to the highest budgets, to all the design industry. In less than a morning, an architect can print its building to discuss
it with their teammates or the client. Everyone can print at home a .stl file that s/he bought and downloaded from a website of a freelance designer. I -a person who is able to develop digital models in a CAD or BIM platform- was completely seduced by this new type of machines. There are two main ways of creating a .stl file. Directly scan an existing corpus with a 3D scanner or exporting it from a built model in a computer. This page does not show a project itself, but my first steps into 3D printing.
