2022
Honorable Mention in Hispalyt Ceramic Forum Projects Contest 2021-2022
The project is situated in the former railway workshops of the city, specifically within a warehouse whose facades are designated as Heritage. For this reason, there is a commitment to the complete preservation of the existing structure, advocating for the conservation of historical values alongside an architecture rooted in reuse.
The guiding idea of the project incorporates the industrial atmosphere and its elements as noteworthy features. The masonry structure, the train tracks running through the warehouse, and the carriages that once housed it will serve as the distinctive imprint and visible identity of the student residence for the School of Fashion.

1. Drawing inspiration from the motion of a sewing machine needle, towers will be incorporated into the existing structure of the building, facilitating the vertical penetration of light throughout its interior. These towers will be composed of vertically arranged Vierendeel beams, serving as support for the floor slabs of each level and residential units, thereby freeing the ground floor of the building from additional supports. To reinforce the structure in areas where residential units are located, the depth of the beams supporting the framework of each floor will be increased.
2. The towers will not only serve as generators of ventilation and natural lighting, towards which all spaces will converge, but will also extend above the roof and be clad in photovoltaic glass, ensuring the sustainability of the building. Additionally, three of these exterior towers will house emergency stairs for building evacuation.
3. Railings play a crucial role in the stability of the building. Thanks to the continuous connection of these railings with walkways and stairs, an increase in their resistance is achieved, transforming them into fully self-supporting structures.
4. The roof will be comprised of a sandwich panel supported by IPE 100 metal profiles on the original trusses of the warehouse.

HOUSING UNITS
In order to preserve the ambiance of the space and highlight the railway history of the location, there is a proposal to create modern, accessible, and functional residential units that emulate the appearance and concept of train carriages.
The spaces and furnishings are encompassed by a shell designed and modulated according to the function of the area. Three modules will be distinguished: living space, bathroom, and bedroom. The distinct arrangement of these
modules based on the students’ needs will result in various interior layouts of the residential units. A fourth type of residential module will be created for those situated in the central void, featuring a chamfer at one of its corners.
Furthermore, the exterior configuration of the units will be composed of repurposed modules from the original structures of the surrounding train carriages.

Location: West End, Londres
The presence of street artists in this city area leads to the creation of improvised stages along the streets, squares, and bustling open spaces, including metro exits.
The aim is to create a building that can serve as a new gathering point for these artistic improvisations. It will strive to foster their development through various spaces it provides, both internally and externally.
“Space, here, is not indifferent; it is the third protagonist of the show, it reveals and reveals itself”

The snake assumes its shape according to what is inside it, moulding itself as it moves through the building and absorbs the architectural programme. Game of shadows.
The program’s design is organically structured around an interior courtyard, interpreted as an extension of the street providing access to the building. In the underground floors, contains the auditorium and the stage, surrounded by all the facilities servicing it, such as dressing rooms, restrooms, and storage spaces. The garage is located on the -3 level of the building.
The upper floors present an irregular geometry with the purpose of creating diverse spaces both inside and outside the building, conducive to spontaneous gatherings among people. This gives rise to the common spaces of the school. The upper levels will house dance studios and faculty offices. The latter are arranged uniformly at the rear of the building, while the studios take on irregular forms and face towards the courtyard and the main street, acting as showcases and lantern of light at night.

The structure is composed of concrete pillars and lightweight flooring using the Bubble-Deck system, enabling the creation of spacious open areas essential for dance classes without the need for intermediate supports.
For both the interior and exterior facades of the building, is choseb the curtain wall system. This achieves a fully glazed surface that allows visibility from the inside to the outside at all points. In areas requiring privacy or for aesthetic purposes in the exterior composition, opaque glass will be installed in the structure.
As for the auditorium structure, it is formed by extensive beams spanning the entire width of the space, supported by load-bearing walls.

PATCHWORK fashion school
Date: 2023 (Master’s final project)
Location: Valladolid
Faced with the challenge of creating a fashion school in the old railway workshops, a project idea is proposed in which the pre-existence and the maintenance of the city’s history are the protagonists. The aim is to maintain the character of an industrial building and for it to be perceived as such. To this end, the educational programme will be organised jointly in one of the spaces of the warehouse, leaving a large void for the organisation of the different events and walkways.
Like layers of a palimpsest, the new intervention allows the original building to be seen, without destroying it, leaning on it at some points.
The specific organisation of the programme generates 3 types of spaces: public (corresponding to the large void in the nave), private (classrooms and spaces inside the school) and intermediate (the access galleries to the classrooms), which allow the vision and interaction with the open space.
PATCHWORK
The use of movable elements such as curtains will achieve a versatile and functional subdivision of the space. These dynamic elements add a layer of flexibility and adaptability to the design, allowing the space to accommodate various needs and occasions. This creates ever-changing and dynamic experiences for users.

STRATEGY
Grouping the functional program in the form of a “technical backpack” integrated once again into a large space. This approach frees up the remaining space in the warehouse, turning it into a blank canvas suitable for accommodating significant stage setups if various fashion shows demand it.
DIFFERENT SPACES
To achieve a versatile and adaptable space for various events and occasions, it is essential to highlight the existence of two distinct yet interdependent volumes within the industrial warehouse. The first volume, depicted as solid, will primarily house and execute the program. The second volume, on the other hand, remains empty.
LIGHT WELLS
The different areas of the project are distributed as independent buildings, separated from each other by light wells. These wells not only facilitate the entry of natural light into the interior of the warehouse but also enable natural ventilation.

HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The context of the former train workshops adds an additional layer of meaning to the architectural project. The presence of this industrial heritage provides the project with a unique connection to the city’s history and the evolution of its infrastructure. Furthermore, this urban environment offers unique opportunities for revitalization and the creation of contemporary spaces that both respect and honor its legacy.
“Extitution: these are spaces that allow their own users to take the lead in activities that haven’t been pre-planned from above by the committee; they are spaces of opportunities.”
Domenico di Siena
CIRCULATION
The circulation on the ground floor will take place along the party wall of the building, providing access to various rooms without the need to cross the central void. On the upper floors, however, circulation occurs at the front of the building, through galleries that are open to the common space.

MATRIOSKA
Hispalyt contest
Objective:
What is refuge? Considering refuge as a space for connection and disconnection from the everyday, leads to seeking a temporary change in the users’ pace of life within the building.
Project Concept:
With the aim of creating a space for reconnection and rediscovery of primitive senses, the project seeks to establish a series of spaces where the occupants’ sensory focal points are enhanced. To achieve this, environmental and internal stimuli converge in different areas of the project, providing the user with a distinct experience as they move through the spaces. The building aligns with the concept of seeking inner self-discovery through the senses.
Formally, it constitutes an enclosure that harbors all these sensations. Similar to a Matryoshka doll, as one delves into the various layers of the refuge (materialized in volumes with different materials, colors, textures, and wall thicknesses), new sensations can be discovered. Distributed across two levels, the intention is to amplify certain senses, providing the user with points of interest not discernible from the exterior of the refuge.

children’s refugee
Date: 2022
Location: Baghere, Senegal.
The project aims to establish a space dedicated to preventing child malnutrition, providing accommodation for high-risk patients, and training community nurses to guide local families in the field of nutrition. All of this is to be achieved through easy construction methods and the use of natural or recycled materials from the area.
The creation of a perimeter wall that encloses the volumes of various rooms is fundamental to the project’s conception. This design results in an introspective building. The distinction between public and private zones will facilitate the organization of various healthcare units.
The project will seek to open to the vegetation that surrounds the site, while it closes off towards the access road to the plot.
Distintion of two areas, public and private, with a common space between them.
Care unit vs residential unit
Creation of a perimetral wall that includes the programm. The building is turned inwards.
Definition of two courtyards: one of a more enclosed nature, on which all the rooms of the care unit return, in the manner of a cloister, and another that opens to the outside, destined for the residential area.
