FACADE REVERSE LOGISTICS MASTER RESEARCH THESIS

The current research analyses the existing supply chain applied to a specific architectural product: a window wall facade. A product and strategy redesign is proposed to facilitate a reverse logistics RL process. A framework is also designed, organizing the RL process, as well as a theoretical basis for DfRL, Design for Reverse Logistics. An application of both formats is performed in a specific case, the CITG building facade panel, and an eventual design exercise is made. A universal office building is proposed, a configuration that will allow interchangeability between products.

THE L-WORKSHOP SOCIAL DESIGN LAB

SWAT is a studio that connects design with society in a tangible way. A specific place was addressed, Amersfoort in the Netherlands, and an analysis on-site revealed some of the needs of the city centre. It was found the neighbours needed public spaces that served the community, and that were flexible enough to accommodate activities both in summer and winter. The L-workshop is conceived as a layered building with different microclimates, highly appropriable by the users. The different spaces served as a puzzle to accommodate the diverse program and the thermal conditions needed.

Optimization was also needed to define a roof that captured the most sun exposure for energy production.

STRATEGIES FOR INCREMENTAL HOUSING HONOURS RESEARCH PROJECT

Regulations on credits do not allow families to apply to social housing in Latin America. Because of the lack of support from the local authorities, the families are forced to self-build or build by their own, completing a house according to their financial situation, or ‘incremental housing’. Having a standardized process and using a co-production process involving crucial stakeholders is relevant, addressing the informality of such sector. The aim of this research was to design a management strategy to render participatory incremental houses in a feasible way, taking 5 study cases from Mexico and the Netherlands.

The second stage had to do with the development of a building inside the master plan, in this case a prototype of a greenhouse/apartments destined for the workers of the campus. A main structure was defined as universal space, and the building was set to one side to leave space for the greenery, in a way that users could benefit from them and produce a community.

Concept development

UNITY TOWERS FAÇADE FAÇADE DESIGN

The project consisted on an interdisciplinary approach in which each member had to develop a discipline.

My role was a façade designer and I need to respond to the architectural concept as well as the structural and climate ones. The designs reacted to the environment and different systems were explored. The plinth received a solid treatment with recovered stones, having a direct dialogue with its more neoclassical neighbours. The apartment tower features winter gardens that extend the social area in summer or protect it in winter. Balconies are also explored. The office tower envisions a unitized façade panel, with all of the systems integrated before being installed in situ. Building physics and structural feasibility were also assessed.

Glass pavilion on a cliff in Iceland

THE RIBBON GLASS DESIGN The brief was to design a glass pavilion made entirely of such material, in Iceland. We also thought it should be situated on the edge of a cliff. The exercise first consisted on the concept design, followed by a more detailed development.

Details were drawn and the characteristic of the glass were also explored, which allowed to calculate the structural performance of the most relevant elements of the pavilion. Other issues like transportation and extreme scenarios also informed the design, dimensioning and overall material properties.

NYC SKY CONDO

ARCHITECTURAL COMPETITION

The competition asked to imagine a new sky condo next to the High Line in New York, where a vertical farm were to be included. Having food production has become a growing necessity in big cities, as land for agriculture is getting scarce. The design marries the housing programme and the farm, located at the centre of each floor, as well as individual green containers per apartment.
