Ageing Catalyst World Architecture Festival 2013 Reconnect spaces in an age-increasing society

Water as a welding element Creation of a public center for mix usage with the main porpouse of reconnecting people of different ages through a system of functions which use water as a catalyst element.

Water ccan provide healthcare facilities such as thermal bath, a source of game for little kids and have a very important role on teaching to respect the environment. Water has a memory in itself, water is source of life, water connects cities through rivers and seas. In this project the aim was actually to find a place for that amazing element, water.

Masterplan of the area of the intervention. we can easyly spot how the new buildings which are composing the thermal bath relate with the eisting ones of the surroundings by creating a focal point on the little lake, real source of water.

Process of development of the idea.

The project tries to insert new elements without taking away the sense of connection given from the square.

Around this so called magical carpet, a lot of different functions take place, such as parking lots for bycicles.

In this masterplan for the entire area we can se e how the neighbourhood is caracterived by iconic elements with a specific geometry.

Analysis of the movement of the people, of the bikers and the presence of the green elements.

“masterplan for a modern shopping experience” Location: Rodovre, DK Year: 2014 Typology: Retailing and Offices

This project is the result of a period of studies on how the market spaces should or are about to change in the next years. The solution has been found in adding mixed activities and creating iconic spaces that tempt people to live those spaces even if their main porpouse is not shopping at all. That+s the reason why it’s possible to have a climbing wall on top of the main entrance.

Rodovre Centrum masterplan for a modern shopping mall

Rodovre Centrum

The project runs along the previous border of the existing shopping centre in the little town od Rodovre, right outside the citycenter of Copenhagen. It provides facilities as housing or thermal bath, together with an institution and offices.

The usage of the roof as a golf area, the creation of amenities such as the vertical climbing wall combined with a main entrance are able to attract people of all ages and all interest.

Shopping becomes a secondary but well integrated function, when all those other elements provide attractive forces.
