Final Master’s Project.
Establishment of a technical office in Malgrat de Mar.
The project aims to address the challenges in decision-making with the food system in the Baja Tordera area. The goal is to advocate for a local production model with reduced consumption of natural resources. Rapid tourism development has threatened agricultural sustainability, leading to the creation of the agricultural consortium “Espai Agrari de la Baixa Tordera” (EABT) to coordinate improvements and manage the agricultural sector comprehensively.
The proposal focuses on preserving the land parcel structure, promoting an agroecological model, updating infrastructure, attracting young farmers, enhancing control and management, and distributing costs equitably. Collaboration between landowners and support from the consortium is suggested to alleviate economic burdens and attract young farmers.
Expected outcomes include greater competitiveness of local products, increased production, reversing agricultural abandonment, and attracting talent and investment.
The implementation of a technical office is crucial for the project’s success. It will be located in an abandoned agricultural building, adapted to the existing structure. The proposal includes a collective core with the consortium’s office and a business development center for future agricultural sectorrelated proposals. The aim is to meet current needs and provide a platform for future growth.
06.
Final Bachelor’s Project Workshop Project for Collective Housing.
The project aims to establish a harmonious coexistence between public spaces, facilities, and collective housing located at an elevated level above the ground in Glorias, Barcelona. The existing slope is leveraged to create a connection across three levels: underground, ground level, and at a height of +9 meters. The intention is to preserve the existing industrial installations and promote common use and space flexibility through a construction system comparable to major infrastructures like airports. The idea is to foster an environment where these distinct spaces complement and coexist in an integrated and functional manner, generating a unique urban experience and promoting social interaction, cultural exchange, and community life in the city.
