URBAN PROJECTS 5TH SEMESTER

Granda Centeno Neighborhood- Intervention proposal (2010) Granda Centeno Neighborhood is located in the north center of Quito. It is a residential area connected with two important avenues of the city and malls.

With the aim to control the expansion of the city, this zone was selected for practice of proposals or interventions that have to be done in order to adapt the urban space for the number of inhabitants, which will increase in the following 30 years.

In order to identify the current situation of this area, some data was gathered: identification of urban landmarks, age and height of building, route system analysis and land use. The project was developed by calculating the number of equipment (health, education) and housing needed for accommodate the growing population of this zone.

A proposal for space organization is also presented, which consists in the selection of location of equipment. In this proposal, ecological pathways connect the equipment with the houses and three typologies of housing were created according to local regulations.

Regeneration proposal for a Farm. Environmental design, building reuse, and requalification of the rural heritage. Milan-Italy (2017) The Cascina Bugo is a farm located in a peri-urban area near to the city of Milan.

The farm complex comprises several historical buildings, that present lack of maintenance and abandonment. In order to improve the situation of the buildings as well as trying to preserve the value of the landscape, the project considers the implementation of a new hub of recreational and production activities which includes among others, the creation of a dock in the channel, accommodation areas, recreational spaces, and new crops. The activities are proposed considering the creation of a network along the channel and other different farms. Additionally, all the activities are proposed in order to minimize the different impacts made to the environment and buildings.

SEMESTER

Urban and Environmental Design proposal of a fish market in Barcelona-Spain (2017) The Old Port of Barcelona is a is a non-resolved area characterized for having obsolete, abandoned or underutilized spaces, in spite of the presence of strong and important places located near, like the Maremagnum and a new boulevard.

One of these spaces is the old fish market where artisanal fishermen have installed their facilities.

In order to improve the conditions of the spaces, as well as connect this space to the city, a new fish market is proposed as part of a new public centrality. This structure aims to bring new experiences as an engine of activities next to the old market wholesale and port facilities for fishermen. With the concept of the artisanal fishermen and its nets, the proposal is strongly anchored to the historical and social values of Barcelona. In this sense, the general idea is to design a place as an active space capable of modifying, transforming and reactivating what is obsolete, abandoned or underutilized, while giving importance to the social actors and historical values of the city.

The proposal focuses the fishermen and one of its characteristical activities, the net repairing, at the cuore of the project. In this sense, the public space is projected to create a journey for visitors, completelly separated for the spaces of exclusive use of fishermen. The public spaces starts with the old fish market in the entrance, and finishes with a lookout that surrounds the net repairing area.

Landscape regeneration proposal of an abandoned limestone quarry in YoughwaGhana (2017) Located near to Younghwa, there was a quarry of limestone straction which used to be the main economical activity of a small community. After the activities of the quarry stopped, the people started to look for other source of sustain. One of it is the wood extraction, causing more damage and negative impacts in the ecosystem and landscape of the area.

With the aim to stop the environmental degradation and to provide a sustainable way of economical and social improvement, this landscape regeneration proposal has been designed in several phases and considers all the aspects of a sustainable process. The first activities to be developed have to do with the creation of a tree nursery, a compost formation system to reclaim the soil of the quarry, the implementation of a new economic activity like planting or bee-keeping, and the socialization or community participation of the process. The following phases include the reforestation, and the creation of economic activities like eco-tourism.

The proposal is focused on the three main topics of sustainability. The environmental one, with the reforestation, soil reclaim and other ecological succession strategies. From the economic perspective: beekeeping, fruit collection and tourism facilities are strategies to foster the economy of the place without comprising the ecological values of the place. Finally, considering the social component, the activities are planned to be developed under community participation and experimentation.

Architectonical and landscape proposal of a multifunctional center in OportoPortugal (2018) The place selected for the intervention is in Porto’s major Public park (Parque da Cidade), in an abandoned area of the park that faces the Atlantic Ocean and Matosinhos city - in the Northwest limit of town. It is requested to create a new flexible building that will work as a new entrance to the park, that can protect people from the rain or other climate aggressions.

The concept of the proposal is developed as the creation of a Portoscape which main idea is to combine and mix all the main landscapes and landmarks present in the city and bring them into one place, with all the sensations and experiences.

The place has three main characteristics, from one side the sea, in the other side the park and in the other, one sculpture and monument which is one of the main landmarks of the city. Because of that, the project brings the park inside the intervention area, with all the forest and nature, and converts it slightly into architecture, crowning this transition with a strong concrete building which brings the idea of a fortress that contains the nature. This building acts as a Duomo or a cover square for cultural activities that link the surrounding urban space and that is related with the natural landscape. Tree species and plants have been selected according to the functions and activities proposed in the spaces, giving the users different sensations and landscapes in just one place.

E N V I R O N M E N TA L D E S I G N P R O P O S A L MASTER THESIS Environmental Design proposal of an urban transformation area in Milan-Italy.

(2018) The urban areas in the world are dealing with new challenges from a rapidly changing climate. The main concern about climate change in the cities now is how to be adapted to these changes and how to mitigate them. On this context, the concept of Nature-based solution (NBS), appears as an alternative which has the capacity of help to the environmental issues while providing a wide breadth of benefits for both, people and the environment.

This thesis is focused on an area of critical importance in the Southern sector of Milano, particularly, the Toffetti-Rogoredo, one of the most dynamic and transformative of the city. A masterplan proposal, developed during a workshop promoted by the Cultural Association TAT, and the Municipio 4, plans complexity and interrelation of different utilities and activities for the area. This previous UCTAT proposal, is analyzed, detecting the main issues and then, a new alternative is proposed, mainly focused on the environmental design of the exterior and public spaces. This new proposal aims to create human spaces, having the best interests of the society and natural environment in mind. It looks for landscape and community spaces to be functional and aesthetically enjoyable while promoting community advancement and harmonic relationships with the natural environment.

Additionally, having identified the main environmental issues to be addressed in the place and in order to improve the climate change resilience, some Naturebased solution (NBS) common practices have been implemented in exterior and public spaces of the complex. As a way of illustration and to show the importance and significant impact that these solutions have on the environment and for the people, the benefits of some NBS practices are estimated. All the analysis, estimations and practices are supported by documents developed and certified by international organizations.

According to their capacity of delivering the breadth of benefits mentioned in the table, the green areas can be classified in : 1. Green areas with low capacity: areas that provide some of the social, ecological and economical benefits described on the table 2. Green areas with medium capacity: areas that provide the majority of social, ecological and economical benefits described on the table with some limitations 3.

ACCESSIBILITY CARMEN ALTO MUSEUM

PLAN

Accessibility plan for Carmen Alto Museum in Quito. (2015) The survey and the images set here are property of the Technical Secretary for the Inclusive Management in Disabilities.

El Carmen Alto museum is a patrimonial building located in the historical center of Quito. At first it was used as a monastery, but recently it has changed, becoming a museum. The aim of the project is to guarantee the access to the attractions and exhibitions for all the people, regardless of their physical or intellectual condition.

The accessibility plan developed consists in two stages: Diagnosis and proposals with prioritization criteria. On the diagnosis, the building is evaluated according to the accessibility standards in Ecuador. After that, the level of accessibility is defined, and the possible interventions are identified.

Because of the historical value of this building, the interventions must be reversible.

The proposals, which are several improvements in the route that visitors follow in the museum, do not affect the integrity of the building. They consist in: signaling substitution, visual warnings in certain places, alternatives of vertical circulation, bathroom interventions, among others.

Cuenca, one of the three more important cities in Ecuador, is one of the main touristic attractions of the country, because of its Historical Center, considered as Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The study presented here was the first stage of the project for become Cuenca in an accessible city.

The study involved around 480 hectares, where elements such as: sidewalks, crosswalks, urban furniture, signaling, traffic lights, ramps, fords, stairs, among others, where analyzed according to the accessibility standards in Ecuador.

The survey started with a diagnosis stage, where the accessibility level as well as the barriers were identified. After that, the information was consolidated and the data was analyzed. Several adjustments were proposed in order to increase de level of accessibility of the area. These adjustments do not affect the historical value of authentic elements.

The prioritizing criteria used for the survey was the accessibility chains analysis, in which the order of interventions where defined in an effective way.
