TABLE OF CONTEXT

about me

I am an enthusiastic and determined architecture student, passionate about the art of creating spaces that harmoniously blend functionality and aesthetic appeal. Ever since I can remember, I have been captivated by the impact architecture has on our daily lives. It has the power to shape our experiences, evoke emotions, and transform communities.

As an architecture student, I constantly seek to expand my knowledge and skills in this ever- evolving field. I am dedicated to honing my design abilities, exploring innovative concepts, and pushing the boundaries of traditional architecture. From studying iconic structures to analyzing urban planning strategies, I immerse myself in a wide range of architectural influences, both historical and contemporary, to develop a well-rounded perspective.

One of the aspects I truly enjoy about being an architecture student is the collaborative nature of the profession. Working with diverse teams, engaging in dynamic discussions, and sharing ideas are integral to the design process. I thrive in this collaborative environment, allowing me to learn from others, gain fresh insights, and embrace different perspectives. Through teamwork and fostering effective communication, we can create truly remarkable architectural solutions.

The study of architecture is not solely about theoretical concepts and design principles. It also encompasses practical aspects such as technical detailing, construction techniques, and sustainability. I am dedicated to understanding these functional elements, as they are crucial for translating creative visions into tangible structures that are environmentally responsible and built to stand the test of time.

As an advocate for sustainable design, I recognize the imperative of addressing our planet's ecological challenges. I strive to incorporate environmentally friendly practices into my designs, such as energy efficiency, the use of renewable materials, and thoughtful integration with the surrounding natural environment. By promoting sustainable architecture, I aim to contribute to a more sustainable and resilient future.

Beyond the academic realm, I am an avid traveller and keen observer of diverse architectural styles worldwide. Exploring different cultures and architectural marvels allows me to broaden my horizons, enrich my design sensibilities, and appreciate the cultural significance of built environments.

LO VERDE APARECE

(ENTER THE GREEN)

Maria Elena is a small town in northern Chile that played a significant role during the saltpetre boom from 1830 to 1930. Victor Loyola, the town's president, aims to promote tourism in the area. Through education and training, he hopes to create a safer service for visitors and highlight the town's rich history and renewable energy initiatives. The response to the project is to provide education to tourists about agriculture while also offering the youth and the community a platform to learn. The project's design intends to address the prevalent challenges Maria Elena faces, such as floods, inadequateearthquakes, educational resources, overheating, weak infrastructure, and unsuitable soil for cultivating crops and vegetables.

Maria Elena is mo ing towards a hea ily tourism-centred town; the green house It would allow for places to stop by As people finish stopping by the educational workshops, they can go learn more in the green hous

The glass is semi-opaque to minimize the amount of light that goes through The lowering of the ground s le els allows for the building to naturally cool on the lower le els

The egetables can be sold at the market, shipped out at the back, or gi en to the community

The highest floor are for cactus; they are in pots until they grow larger and then repopulate back into Chile

The cactus is currently going extinct in Chile, due to it being o erused for doors and other items.

Why doesn’t Maria Elena not have a green house or grow plants?

Not only is the soil really thick, but it is ery acidic, causing it to kill any plant that is placed into the ground.

GREEN HOUSE VEGETABLES

Maria Elena rarely has rain, but in the past few years, they have had an increase, causing uids

Due to the soil, the rain doesn't seep through, destroying many of the buildings on the site

The system collects the water and reuses it for the plants and throughout the building.

The water system is connected to the main grid of Maria Elena, and when it isn’t raining, it taps in The water well is deep into the ground, so it won’t have to worry about the tree roots f there are any issues with the system, there is a manhole to get to the water well

The light green connects to the dark and brings the water to a lower level. it collects water in the courtyard

The yellow is where the filtration system will be, the water would contain a lot of salt and other minerals that are harmful to the plants, as well as dirty for people trying to wash their hands

The response to the project was to bring the recreational gym underground and bridge the connection between the current building with the new one from below. The ramps are oriented on the west side, designed to block out sunlight when setting, creating a path to the roof and creating a path under to view the gym. There is an opaque glass floor that allows for light to brighten the lower level, and an angled wall mostly made of glass to allow light in that upper path, but not get in the eyes of the players. The new building is relatively the same height as the old building beside it, creating a feeling of unity side by side. Additionally, a Mural with some of the past greats in Raptors history and current players was added in the tunnel, connecting and leading toward the gym.

The most important details in this text are that the author has learned more about working with people than ever before, and that this term's project is for the people. They were more involved with the community and getting what they wanted out of this, and after talking to all the members and hearing what they heard, initial plans had to change. They chose a more broad and simplistic approach that can allow for the community to find use in the project in many different ways. The project is called Para-siting, as it begins as one large modular organism that can be reconstructed in many different places, serving different things.

This project is on Nakkertok Ski Lodge, a hilly acreage in Cantley, QC, in the Gatineau hills. The project aims to create an interior and exterior project that gradually ascends higher. On one side of the interior space, the building is below- grade, creating a cozy atmosphere, while the other reaches a higher point in the sky. All of the programs are oriented towards the front of the lodge to allow the back to have more open views. To optimize all of the sights, there are three major sections in the exterior of the building ,optimize all of the sights to allow everyone to see the stadium without being blocked by someone behind them.
