A LITLE MORE ABOUT ME -- UN POCO MÁS SOBRE MI Cooking the Landscape Final Project, San Sebastian, Spain, July 2013. I consider myself as an architect who cares about the insertion of the building in the environment, so I decided to go deeper studing landscaping. I consider it’s very important to see what is being done elsewhere in the world so I went to different universities like Columbia, La Sapienza and Zhejiang to see how other students of architecture deal with diferent projects from different points of view. Me considero un arquitecto que se preocupa por la insercion del edificio en el entorno, por eso decidi estudiar paisajismo para profundizar más. Considero muy importante ver lo que se esta haciendo en otras partes del mundo por eso fui a la universidad de Columbia, La Sapienza y Zhejiang para ver como otros estudiantes de arquitectura abordaban los proyectos de formas diferentes.

conclusion -- conclusión This performance wants to disappear in the woods but at the same time feel that happens (rain, wind, sun ...). To generate reflections I use the rainwater with metal that also generates sounds. To feel the wind I use light mobile elements. To generate light effects and colors I use translucent elements. Use net to float in the forest and catch the leaves. The wood creates warmth and unique sounds of the forest. Is Not a building facade, the facade is the changing forest. Una intervencion que quiere desaparecer en el bosque pero que a la vez sientas los que ocurre (lluvia, viento, sol ...). Para generar reflejos uso la lluvia con el metal que también genera sonidos. Para percibir el viento uso elementos ligeros moviles. Para generar efectos de luz uso elementos translucidos y colores. Uso redes para flotar en el bosque y atrapar las hojas. La madera genera calidez y sonidos propios del bosque. No es un edificio fachada, su fachada es el bosque cambiante.

This building combines different uses on each floor, from homes, offices and public spaces. The triangular shape improves wind resistance and because of the turning shape its facade change from every point of view.

La forma triangular mejora la resistencia al viento del conjunto y al girar va cambiando su fachada siendo desde cada punto de vista diferente.

HIGH SPEED LINE Columbia University Performance in the Highline, NY, USA, August 2009. The idea is to create a highline for users who can not use the highline now as bikers, skateboarders, rollerbladers. I generate other way that that coexists and relates to the existing but more dynamic. La idea es crear un highline para los usuarios que no pueden usar el highline como son la gente en bici, skateboarders, patinadores. Creo otro camino que convive y se relaciona con el existente pero mรกs dinรกmico.
