UNFINISHED SPACES
The intention of this project is to show the connection between spaces, the flexibility of the structures for future changes and work with the past, creating spaces for the imagination. Working with the present, thinking about the future, without forgetting the past.

ROCK CLUB HOUSE
CRICKET PAVILION
Rock, Northumberland, England
2021 / 2022
Rock has 700 years of existence, it is a progression project since it is based in the improvement of the village,however most of its constructions are part of the listed buildings.
Rock Club House is using recycable timber from the old cricket pavilion of the village and rammed earth as a base. It was created for the village for social events as well as for cricket matches. This project eflect the connection between the buildings and the surrounders.

A NEW LEGACY
This project is inspired in a personal and important object such as the Rosary beads which was studied in detail. The second phase of this project is the creation of another object based in the first one which is going to be located insied my room.
A cardboard box with beads represents the importance of the Rosary beads along my life. Through crossed wires, the movement that the timber frame created and the lack of light shows the difficult path until arriving at the real meaning.

EARTH COMPETITION - SHORLISTED
Located in Weissenssee, Austria, a rammed earth pavilion sits within the threshold created by lake and mountain. The building is designed to take you through a journey of the life of rammed earth, beginning with its raw, rough texture, moving on to its most refined state and lastly, inevitably becoming its most derelict, one can admire the moment where its life as a building material comes to an end. The pavilion uses, earth, stone and timber, to compose its structure and building form, which are local to the site.
Nothing lasts forever. This building isn’t meant to last.

THE TRINITY PROJECT
WAF STUDENT CHARRETTE 2023 - SHORLISTED
Bangladesh, with its swamp-dominated terrain, is highly susceptible. When exploring strategies to address shrinking land due to rising sea levels, the concept of constructing over water gains significance. The human habitation necessitates shelter, sustenance, and potable water. The triangular shape emerged as the ideal foundation for our innovative platform. This trinity of elements has been the catalyst inspiring our residential modular structure, adept at addressing not only human habitation but also embodying the vital attributes of strength, equilibrium, and adaptability.
Six platforms interlinked form a hexagonal nucleus, poised to burgeon into a sprawling metropolis like beehive growth.

CHURCH HOUSE, WESTMINSTER
SCOTT WHITBY STUDIO - INTERNSHIP
Church House, a six-level listed building, became my modeling focus with a specific emphasis on the right-hand side entrance. Commencing with arches post-reception, the entryway ascends and widens gradually. The reception was also crafted to showcase visible slope variations, enhancing the fluidity of the building’s language upon entry. The central space unfolds into ramps, guiding individuals to arched entrances on the right. This model shows the person’s journey from the entrance to the first room of the building, illustrating transitions between spaces, the individual’s perception in each space, and the challenges of working with listed buildings. rowth.
