Tulips House
Location: Xalapa, Mexico.
Type: Residential Year: 2020
Architectural design housing project, located on an 8x18 m lot in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, in Mexico. This project focuses on natural light and ventilation, while at the same time keeping a welcoming sensation, and security in a location where security is a main concern.

Data Center
Location: Querétaro, Mexico.
Type: Industrial Year: 2021-2022
As everyone life’s became “online” due to COVID-19 and prolonged confinement, 2 problems became relevant: the need for more cloud data storage to support an exponential growth of e-commerce and digital consumption, and the lack of specialized profesionals who could operate the installations needed to solve the first problem.
The project is divided into 2 main sections: The Special Capacitation Centre, and the Data Centre, where the main computer room takes up most of the space.

ArchViz Exploration Project
Type: Concept Year: 2020-2024
Architectural design goes beyond blueprints, which is why my ArchViz exploration project consists of testing various rendering and modeling tools to bring to life architectural designs. This research has allowed me to selftaught tools such as Grasshopper, D5 Render, Unreal Engine, V-ray, Twinmotion, Corona Render, and 3DS Max.
Conceptual shape design was also a focus on this project.
The conceptual masses helped to achieve results more easily while at the same time leaving room for interpretation of the function of the volumes.
Following interior design, product design visualization scenes were also set up.
On behalf of exterior visualization, interior visualization was also explored setting an interior design scene to test various lighting scenarios, as well as textures.
Finally, Real-time visualization in Unreal Engine served to achieve results such as photorealistic environments.
An advantage of this render engine is the possibility to implement VR to projects.
