This house was a challenging project committed by two young brothers with their families, each one with very particular needs The owners ' main requirement was to share the building while maintaining their privacy
The architectural proposal uses the slope of the land to generate independent access in each of the two facades, giving private access for each of the families,
The volume is an assembly of basic elements that generate a more organic geometry and a sense of movement with basic shapes for the concrete walls 10cm thick

The renovation highlights the connection with nature The design ethos was driven by a desire to create a home that converses with its environment Large floor-to-ceiling windows were installed to blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing for abundant natural light and uninterrupted views of the lush greenery surrounding the home

Architecture Model Sample
Senior Honors Thesis - UPC
Scales: 1/200, 1/2000
Materials: Cardboard, balsa wood
An architectural model is not only a physical representation of a structure – built to study but an extension of aspects of architectural design that communicate ideas.

In this case, the main idea was to show the desert as the most important element of the project and the architecture as a secondary respectful companion
To keep things simple cardboard and balsa wood were used as materials recreating the texture and colors of the Nasca desert.
Construction Detail Sample
Senior Honors Thesis - UPC
As an architect, it is important to always pay attention to the details These are some of the construction details drawings that were made for my undergraduate thesis project
Architectural detail is a small piece of the whole, yet it has the power to characterize and define the entire building.
Attention to detail is critical to us when it comes to our projects.
