MCH Structure & Elements The Master of Advanced Studies in Collective Housing is a postgraduate professional program of advanced architecture design focused on housing, city and energy studies. The value of this unique program lies in its excellence and practice-oriented synthesis of design with integrated disciplines and theoretical issues of dwelling and housing.

MCH is directed by Prof. JosĂŠ MarĂ­a de Lapuerta (UPM) and Prof. Andrea Deplazes (ETH).

Participants will develop their design skills through an intensive series of one-week workshops and complete their theoretical knowledge in specialty seminars. Sometimes additional supporting documents or written information about the lectures will be provided to all students.

One-week workshops offer participants a place to further develop the acquired knowledge during the year. During that week, there is a change of pace in which they take a break from the other specialties and intensify their work in the workshops to make the best out of it. The topic and approach for every workshop is different and the methodology used by the invited architect is also meant to vary in order to give the participant a wide range of cases to learn from. Each workshop leader is matched with a young local architect, who acts as teaching assistant.

Each specialty seminar is coordinated by a technical director who relies on a group of teachers and specialists from all over the world.

In any case, the approach is basically practical and complementary information is given digitally or on paper.

The idea of integrating a seminar and workshop is to introduce a series of ideas and concepts and, simultaneously, to learn how to introduce them in a design process, thus reinforcing the practical approach of this module.

This workshop departs from the structural connection that exists between the climate of a given location and the culture unfolded by its inhabitants. This question which has been rarely addressed by architects, underpins a wide array of questions which connect climate to social patterns, local lifestyles, how people dress themselves or how is architecture inhabited.

From this perspective, a thermodynamic approach to architecture needs to explore the interactions between the local climate, the spatial and material particularities of architecture, and the lifestyle of its users. Contrary to mainstream practice which deploys a top-down approach which proceeds from outdoor massing to indoor space, this studio explores the potential to conceive architecture from the interior.

The objective is to design a building starting from the particular atmospheres demanded by its users. As a result, departing from the specific ambient conditions needed by users, students will define the set of sources and sinks required to induce specific atmospheric situations.

Landscape and building typologies will be a useful tool during the module as it offers the possibility to bridge the gulf between local climate and specific everyday life patterns. Climatic typologies show how architecture can interact between a given climate and the way people live and socialize, offering the potential to connect the spatial and material lineaments with the specific physiological and psychological behaviors, bridging the gulf between the thermodynamic processes induced by architecture and the quotidian behavior of its inhabitants.

Starting from quotidian situations the studio will proceed defining interior space, and through gradual steps will explore consecutive architectural scales: first a domestic space and later a collective housing program. The workshop will be developed in groups and each group will work in similar location: the North African Mediterranean coast.

City Cohousing

Moncloa, Madrid Liu Lu | Juan Cruz Barrionuevo | Juan Esteban Duque | Juan Felipe Quiñonez

Exploring the brave new world of living TOGHETHER; The XXI century communes & the relationship with the planet.

Imagine that you can live in Madrid the way you envision your life in the near future and that you have the possibility to design this space. But who are you?

Are you happy with who you are? Do you want to take the opportunity to be that person you admire or simply a different you, imagine that you are your grandmother, a super millionaire, or a porn star, and then think a world or desire and spaces that you may need.

We need a program – concepts - ambitions, a diagram of functions, ways to use it, different activities happening, a map of qualities, amounts of light or noise required, spaces connected. Levels of privacy.

Sharing spaces? Alone but connected? The relation between human and technology.

A co-living space.

MONCLOA COLLECTIVE HOUSING In between spaces as generators, the idea that the collective space is the one that controls the disposition of the rest of the spaces and that they are always related in a way that the negotiation of space and program work´s like antagonists, one will not function without the other.

A simple substraction from a mass gives a different quality to the environment, the collection of these spaces in the whole and the addition of a connection between them rule the way the project develops.

A set of collective housing case studies built in different climates* have been selected for this specialty.

Each of the case studies will be assigned to a group, to be Re-located in a different place and economic context, each group will select a city and a specific site where to re-locate their building. Orientation may vary or be kept as in the original. The new sites and contexts will require the students to Re-conceptualize the building’s design strategies related to external envelope, structure and services. Students will also need to reconsider construction systems and materials, and search for an appropriate solution which allows to Re-industrialize the building process, always related to the available resources in the new location.

We had Tila housing from Helsinki and decided to move to San Juan in Puerto Rico, the election of the site had to do a lot with the type of housing we had to develop, as well as the technical part of it, located in a developing area of the city well connected and not far from industry the plot made it easy for us to use prefab elements in the construction, enhancing the main idea of the project.

Information always transmitting

New ways of moving through the city

City in different layers

Ownership by hours

City Sciences

Alejandro de Miguel

PRESENT & FUTURE CITIES / ICT Smart cities are not the future, they are already happening, with the increase of mobile “smart” elements and wearables, the city transformed and it is always transmitting information to some companies, the final piece of this smart cities is in regard on how they use the information, and how the city can benefit from it.

Cities used to change due to improvements in technology or changes in power status, by now there has been no life changing event (till Covid-192) so society has not pushed people to change immediately. We can only assume the new city will be one provoked by a world problem (shortage of water or Covid) the way the city is going to change can only be guessed, technology is moving fast and society can only react but not so much be proactive; some of my guesses will be explained in the text.

1

Ownership is going to change as a concept, the idea of owning a piece of land is way in the past and now people own elements that does not exist, due to previous crisis this might evolve so no one will own things for a long time so the concept will change dramatically and this of course will change the city; cities are going in layers because that’s the only sustainable way to do it, so in addition to ownership now the same space will be owned by two or more entities but time and adaptability will be key for this.

Information, for this we have the idea of open source, although it is going to take time because information is power and before getting to full open disclosed information for everyone there has to be a change in power and ideology of how governments or its evolution work.

Climate change is a thing we have to consider, this element will change the way we use the city meaning that we probably won’t be out there so much time due to external changes, so inner space will be more and more important with time, so efficiency of how it used its important.

39

Social participation, I´m not too keen on this because it is very difficult to implement correctly, for now it’s a slow process but maybe with the changes stated before then it could be a powerful element to cities, by know we can only consider it as a good element for specific decisions, I’m also not going to consider it much because it’s not the best weapon to implement globally in my opinion for the problems it might come with.

I would like to say that the resilience of the actual cities is key, just agile cities will be efficient in their transformation to the future city, the ones that are not will then not evolve properly, some will try to do it but will stay in some stage and finally won’t make it, for the ones that do I don’t think they will actually change very much from what we have now, until we move to another planet because for now we have a lot of limitations and restraints that won’t allow us to make “new” cities.

1. Smart city is an urban area that uses different types of electronic Internet of Things (IoT) sensors to collect data and then use insights gained from that data to manage assets, resources and services efficiently. This includes data collected from citizens, devices, and assets that is processed and analyzed to monitor and manage traffic and transportation systems, power plants, utilities, water supply networks, waste management, crime detection, information systems, schools, libraries, hospitals, and other community services.

2. COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2

Transportation and mobility

The first thing I think about how the ways of transportation have changed during my life it’s that it has never changed, I mean cars, buses, trains, airplanes, boats; they are still the same with design changes and probably improvements of efficiency and so on but they have always worked on the same platform, they take the same routes and there has been no proven innovation. One of the most important changes could have been the move to electric motors but the evolution of transportation did not happen and was a missed opportunity from my point of view.

Obviously we have to talk about the aces trends (autonomous1, connected2, electric, and shared mobility) but let’s talk about how we got to this point, with the introduction of Uber3(which is already working in something that might change the paradigm4) people realized the market didn’t had to work as it was, we do not have to own a private car, taxi services are threatened all around the world by the ability of some, and this made transportation modify itself in some ways. The idea of one person per moving transport is in the past, now we know that if we want to be sustainable at least we have to share or carpool which is somehow a micro public transportation in some way, I think we should explore this idea and make it more efficient and global, we have to take into account the trends mentioned before, it would be easier for people to move in cities if they didn’t had to wait for anything not even traffic, it is difficult to achieve obviously but it would definitely change the paradigm of transportation.

Changes to the city will range from the space used from the infrastructure needed for connections to storage, we will need less space for transportation as this is more efficient and we don’t need as many as before, the street line will be modified by soft mobility, carparks will cease to exist as they do now because the “car” will be always moving and just stop for maintenance. Companies will have to know how to recycle themselves as they have been doing (e.g. the electric cars you can rent everywhere in the city)but they will have to go a step forward with this and push the market forward to benefit as much from it, they have to be proactive instead of reactive.

Logistics companies are going to be a very important element in the equation they will probably be the first to make the changes needed, they will control how the market moves; drones will be very important for this, vertical takeoff crafts could be the next important thing in mobility, it could be a way to ensure an efficient system of transportation if it is no longer done at street level.

Lastly I think mobility will be focused in everyone and not only in legal drivers, kids and elder people as well as disabled will take a bigger part that they have today, making transportation a general facility for the city, due to the changes stated before it would be very simple and safe for a mother to pick up her kid without leaving work, making time the most important asset for people in years to come.

Sustainable & energy cities

I don’t think we can discuss both of these topics separately, so my manifestos are going to be interlaced one with the other. It is clear that to reach sustainability we must think of a whole and not particular but at the same time, the change of scales is very interesting as well as important for what I write about. So, my first approach to the way cities will become sustainable is by working as a very efficient system of unique elements that by themselves wouldn’t work properly but combined make a system1 that we will call the sustainable city of the future.

43

Up till now the cities around the world tackled the issue of energy by producing it in mass somewhere outside the boundaries of it but I reckon that this has started to change by the implementation of renewable energy in small scale (e.g. photovoltaic panels2), I want to take this one step ahead and propose that cities produce the whole amount of energy inside of its boundaries, there are many sources of “clean” “free” energy, as mentioned before the use of photovoltaics is a way of producing small quantities of energy for individuals, we can continue to do this due to the reduction in price; there are many unused energies in the city that can work together in different times to produce the whole amount needed for the size of the city. For example, let’s talk about the heat that the cities produce for different reasons, this big amount of energy is unused and we can benefit highly of it, the idea of using the running water from rivers or the sewers is something else to consider, biomass3 (not the one I would like to use because it is a big pollutant) has been chosen by different cities because it’s a way of handling some other problems. Probably energy that we haven’t yet considered an might be an important one is the one that human beings produce and “waste”, it is probably the one that is the most difficult to implement in a bigger scale but it could work on charging personal things such as a mobile or a wearable.

Remember I talked about the variety of scales this means that not all of the elements that use energy now have to use it in the future we can benefit from the different sources for different scenarios, we also have to talk about how the cities can share energy in between them, as it was mentioned in the presentations there are already cities connected and some of them share the energy but they can do it more and more so that the “waste” is reduced and we make an efficient system.

Fossil fuels should be avoided but not discard completely, the idea of a mix of sources goes all the way, not only making renewable energies as the first option and the element that more or less provides for everyone, but we have already invested so much energy in creating processes that work with fossil fuels that maybe we can keep some of them, probably most of them will change but it would be reckless to think that all the cities around the world can make a change to renewable energy and that nothing will happen, the greed of the human being will probably be a big problem but that’s a topic I won’t talk about now.

So before moving a little out of energy let’s do a quick resume, energy has to work as an efficient system with different scales of sources for different scale of consumer, we have to consider that this system will only be efficient if we take time into account, resources, and energy already invested and to finish we have to take advantage of every single bit of energy produced and not waste anything.

Now let’s talk about a more sustainable city, adding to the changes of energy providers and producers we have to talk about density, for a city to be sustainable it should work with the principle that layering and efficiency are key elements, layering meaning that we only have an amount of land that we can cover for human use but this area can be transformed into volume, it is not infinite but it’s a big increment of space we can use, this space can have different solutions depending on 44

1. A set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network.

2. A PV module is an assembly of photo-voltaic cells mounted in a frame work for installation. Photo-voltaic cells use sunlight as a source of energy and generate direct current electricity. A collection of PV modules is called a PV Panel.

3. Is plant or animal material used for energy production (electricity or heat), or in various industrial processes as raw substance for a range of products.

4. Is a municipality in the western Netherlands, in the province of South Holland.

45

FUTURE CITIES

the height it is situated and will work properly for some elements of the city and not for other ones but it helps with the spread and use of land.

We have to consider that as we are layering in height people should not have to move so much in the horizontal plane and can do more things in the vertical one, as people won’t move around as much as before there we have another place in which we can make the city more efficient with transport and infrastructure.

As a final proposal, I think the city has to become a mix of uses but not as it is now, a real mix, having food, energy, material production closer to the actual consumers. In the Westlands4, there has been a lot of innovation in greenhouse farming and vertical farms, these two might be viable options, we still have to understand how to implement them in cities.

Ownership as we know it will change, there will be a lot more trade and sharing in everything, not in a romantic way, but thinking of it as a new social and economic paradigm. So elements inside the city have to work one with the other for the production and consumption of everything, having everything closed to each other and using the vertical plane will help the city to deal with different problems that we have today in a global scale, but the change has to start from every single particular element in the equation meaning that people, companies, governments, and countries have to change as individuals and particulars to a whole general system.

San Diego, Madrid Ă lvaro Pedrayes | Carlos Ballesteros

To fully understand housing problems, we have to comprehend the problems that the society have in the particular neighbourhood because each situation is particular and it is specific to its conditions; we did a statistical description as well as an analysis in depth of the neighbourhood.

San Diego neighborhood within Vallecas, an old Barrio in Madrid with a recorded history dating 1202 that has suffered ravages of the Spanish Civil War and has made its way as a community of immigrant workers, which today continue to fight for a decent and worthy place within the city although it seems that Madrid has been in charge of locking them up thanks to a series physical barriers that have been put in place, such as M-30 highway and the train tracks. The 1,0966 km2 community with a population of around 38,953 inhabitants which must of them suffer from social and urban limitations it gives an impression of being purposely encapsulated by the community.

These issues may have a solution but in order to understand them we have to make a deep analysis of their history, physical, social, residential situation of the Barrio, once having this analysis a given proposal is formulated especially to try to solve the problems that with the time have been amassing.

José María Ezquiaga | Gemma Peribáñez Ayala

Campamento, Madrid Adolfo de la Torre | José Ignacio Valdez | Mehdi Gharibi

The New Campamento District is located southeast of the city of Madrid, and constitutes the most important piece to complete this area of the city, whit almost 200 Ha. The district has to be a fine-grained, mixed and lively place, at the same time it has the potential for a globally exemplary sustainable project that takes limited resources into account. Around 10,000 apartments are planned, rented and owned, for cooperatives and building associations, of which a half are subsidized apartments. The social infrastructure with primary school and day care centers as well as new offers for local supply, sport and culture will also find their place here. In addition, locating workspaces to house a number at least greater than 10,000 jobs will be a chance.

The noise from the road A5, one of the most important access to Madrid from the east of the metropolitan area, and other residential sectors in arounds makes it more difficult to create or built more apartments.

Close to the New Campamento District, a large green area of around 1,700 hectares called Casa de Campo, are expected to be fully integrated in the city, which invite for leisure and sports use.

What we propose is to complete the semi existing axis, one urban and one is green, these in addition to the A5 connecting to the city centre generate a node where we place the transport exchanger. With the proposed elements we generate a whole in urban manners, the latter added with the right density is a combo that we think will work very good here.

Madrid 2080

Hrvoje Njiriç | Esperanza Campaña Madrid María José Cachau | Virginia Cid

This year’s task is focused on low-cost housing, on affordable and innovative solutions to the basic need for a small-sized quality housing.

The assignment gives the opportunity to think about social, cultural and environmental effects in sustainable design and construction.

Participants are challenged to conceive a new and original concept for a low-cost house with expandable units or local materials, however not strictly limited to “low tech”. The workshop is designed to challenge and seek creativity with traditional ideas and concepts in architectural design of collective living spaces. It aims to promote alternative solutions to housing, coming up with affordable and sustainable units with limited size and budget to meet urgent demands in housing market, something not in contradiction with singular, enjoyable and inviting domestic spaces. The challenge is both multidisciplinary and multiscale, a minimal housing unit capable of fulfilling the residents’ requirements of comfort, thrift and sustainability.

We generated a master plan thinking of Madrid in 2080, what will happen is that nature will come back, we will have to inhabit elements that before we did not consider, the housing elements will have to work cooperatively with the existent elements, this housing is developed in different types of builidings (thin, thick, petrified, open, triangle and crazy) each having specific elements, creating density, enhancing different types of life and using the ground floor as an extension of the urban elements to generate city.

Torres Colón

Allison Brooks | Alejandro de Miguel

Plaza de Colón, Madrid Juan Felipe Quiñonez | Mariana Sandoval | Meggy Katharopoulou Torres de colón a project from studio Lamela, built in 1967; that have gone through several transformations in which they have changed not only the original use but also the building elements, including a new staircase and a copper crown. They are located at plaza colón in Madrid, on the corner of Castellana and Génova; the building is a controversial element in Madrid’s skyline.

We realized that it is situated inside a hidden network that moves underground; the building then represents a node in the system, with few connections we can bring a lot of people to the plot that otherwise will never walk inside. That in addition to a quick analysis of equipment showed a lack of sports facilities in the surroundings, thus provoking us to try to fill it with our institution.

Understanding the latter means that we have to use all of the underground parking spaces, converting its use to a public element, by de-constructing the element we can use our new program to activate the space. Boxes that respect the structure of the building by hanging of it as the main conceptual idea of the original project, allowing the sun to reach the lowest level located at -17m from the street and enhancing the connection to the Colón metro station we generate a new underground urban plaza topped with hanging public gardens as a reference of the other big public element that we have in the area, Retiro park.

The project then will be divided into two elements, the institution with flying gardens and the flats. The levels that have a direct connection with the city (underground & overground) will relate directly to the public element; we have 5 different levels with program scattered around them, the main concept is to reinforce the connection with the elements that already exist, by enhancing them we will get people in our public plaza; the organization of our levels also has to do with an idea of destination meaning that the lowest level is the final destination, Thermal baths taking advantage of the natural thermodynamics are placed in the last level after this a sports facility is divided in the slabs making people move through our hanging plazas, connections and boxes. As a crown of the institution we have the flying gardens, following the idea of decomposition and anti-gravity we place them in different slabs so that the experience is like moving through different areas and not just walking around the same gardens.

For the private part we have the existing two towers, the first thing we did was to take them back to their original idea of being residential, cleaning the façade and pulling out some of the 90´s additions, we end up with a sawed slab that hangs from the top. Each building will have a different typology, for one of them we thought of having a fixed 69

-

apartment typology, the other one would then be a free plan, with movable walls that go through a railing system following the idea of the reticular slab, with this we allow the user to configure the space and personalize as he wants. For the faรงade we thought of several different transitions of transparency in horizontal and vertical all along the building, the latter in addition to the outer skin composed of rods will create a game of composition, we will have several degrees of privacy and views from and to the flats. Having the densest piece of rods in the upper part against the most transparent level of glazing, when you reach the lower levels the density of vertical rods will diminish and the frostiness in the glazing will be greater.

For our domesticity and adaptability; our free plan apartments are thought in a way that the final user can use it in its own unique way, to fit their needs; this needs change through time and can also be different in one same day. As we already have a reticular slab, we added a series of rails, the railing system has movable walls, this means that the floor plan configuration will never be the same. The walls are stored in one division of the apartment and when a new user arrives, he starts moving them and experiencing new spaces that are complemented with terraces that are private to each flat.

We also have two types of flexible apartments; in addition to these, we have another tower that has fixed apartments for people that are not ready to jump to the flexible life. We have three typologies including one duplex; what we try with this is to cover a wide range of users that can come and live in the new residential area.

When the inside is not enough, the inhabitants can move freely through our institution and flying gardens but also, they have their own private roof garden with the views of the entire city.

Fontana Mix

Jaime Coll | Judith Leclerc | Diego GarcĂ­a-SetiĂŠn Fontana Metro Station, Barcelona Adolfo de la Torre | Malena Ramos

The diffuse greenhouse project aims to be a rental housing business model, which merges three different architectonical typologies, that invite and target different users, according to their interests and economical possibilities. It gets its name because of the possibility it has to enable flexibility to the spaces and its uses, which could be whether multipurpose or transitional.

The core on periphery typology inspired by Domus Demain project aims to host entire families up to 6 members (maximum renting capability) or users with more accurate needs of privacy and that are looking for a longer-term stay. It serves as a modus vivendi business model for people that need an income and can´t work outside their own habitable space, due to the high unemployment rate that the coronavirus crisis provoked, or any other future crisis.

The house within the house typology inspired by the house with plants by Ishigami, aims to host people that like to have a very direct relation with nature, that need a lower sense of privacy, that are used to coexisting and sharing spaces, and enjoy group activities.

The 9SGH House typology inspired by Nine square grid house by Shigeru Ban, hosts the most transitional flows of people in the building, as it is designed to host a target that needs a space for a shorter amount of time, or a target with less economical possibilities, such as refugees, homeless, etc.

The building has the intention to promote coexistence among different social classes, offering a chance even for the most vulnerable people, to be hosted. It also aims to sequester the CO2 emissions, with a big amount of plants, create a microclimate, invite certain fauna to coexist.

It has a sense of mix use, as besides from housing, it offers more services such as a cafeteria, that also enables employment, giving the opportunity, for instance, to the people that lives in the 9SGH house typology, to pay for its rental space.

It contributes to the neighborhood mostly because of all the oxygen it purifies and also because it could work as a landmark that could attract more people to visit this specific zone in Barcelona.

Colonization & Balance

Andrea Deplazes | Fernando Altozano | Margarita Salmeron Jardín del Principe de Anglona, Madrid María José Rodríguez de Vera Guardiola | Nathalie Flasz

Understanding that decisions are made either from the government to the people or the other way around, can help people comprehend how cities have been created, realizing which elements come from a top down or from the bottom up is somehow easy, in the workshop we analyzed an area and determined some of these elements, we then chose one of the controversial spaces due to its imbalance and tried with certain tools to colonize it so that the balance is restored and people can appropriate the space without hesitation.

Los Jardines del principe de Anglona which is the space in where we decided to intervine show a change in years using both methods, finally we are implementing several strategies to generate a new public space that will be used by people, taking into account the depth of Gifu’s building as a reference we the started to place housing blocks elements as limits of already existing elements that will be rediscovered by the population of Madrid, generating a new focal point in the centre, revitalizing certain elements that otherwise would be unused.

How to do housing? Project booklet

Dietmar Eberle | Jorge Sotelo | Yasemin Yalcin Calle Fray Luis de Leรณn, Madrid

The workshop starts with the question stated above, we are given three different plots with 3 scales, from a very minimal one to an urban plan; the idea is to understand that the types given can be attacked with a similar game plan, this means that the scale will determine different elements but following certain steps the projects in the three sites can be developed in the same way.

First we have to understand the urban part of the project, not taking into account the size, the project should always deal with the urban comprehension from the point that we as architects have to place our buildings in a city and being part of this system we should try not only to fit in but to enhance the situation. Public spaces should not be thought as residual areas, but the placement of the blocks can and should respond to them and not the other way around. With the latter we are providing the citizens a usable space that will then be complemented by the housing.

For the second step, the housing block itself should respond to the first rule but also to understand where its being placed so the depth, height, building type should again be part of the city and not only from the plot in which it is being placed. The faรงade and the ground floor are two important pieces of the element because the first is how the building mimic and how it is perceived by the people, the second is the first element in which the citizen will have a physical interaction with the block.

As a conclusion, the elements stated above should work as one and be coherent with the place in which they are placed.

For this exercise we tried to fit three different buildings in the plots given, attacking different elements of the ones already written above, so for the small we worked with the ground level and the faรงade, for the medium the placement in the plot and for the large one again we tried to do the placement in the urban area, giving it a structure thus giving us restrictions for the faรงade.

As a final idea we had to choose one of the three plots and join the ideas of the workshop in one project. I chose the medium site, withe my original placement, enhanced by the density of one of my peers, using structural walls with a direct relation to the faรงade, this element gave the project depth so that the relation to the city was given with the proportions of the window and the ratio between open and closed elements.
