Hello!

rPET + Fly Ash Composite by Mechanical Alloying

Given the degradation suffered by most thermoplastic polymers during melting, a novel process was proposed to develop a polymeric matrix (rPET) composite reinforced with ceramic particles (Fly Ash).

Both rPET and Fly Ash (FA) are highly polluting waste products. This material has the potential to be included in sustainable architecture and design projects.

100% rPET 90% rPET 10% FA

This is a research made at the Autonomous University of Zacatecas, with Conacyt funding.

rPET + Fly Ash Composite by Mechanical Alloying

It was concluded that MA of FA and rPET works in a similar way to fusion in terms of the absence of chemical reactions and the presence of physical interactions.

Also, the consolidation of the resulting powders at temperatures close to or higher than the original Tm could generate more favorable results, however, to meet the specified objectives, the investigation was kept below this temperature.

Bulco

In collaboration with Co.Arch Studio, and inspired by Mexican vernacular chairs, we wanted to recreate the feeling of tranquillity that you feel while sitting on the streets in the shade, watching the dusty landscape of Mexico. An intimate space to sit down to stay still for a moment, reflect, read, relax, to give time its dimension.

Galleria Colleoni

As parallel project, either in collaboration with co.arch, we made an interior design proposal for the showroom of Galleria d'arte Colleoni, in the city of Bergamo, Italy.

The biggest challenge was to attract the attention of the public, since the street where the gallery is cited is of less pedestrian and more automotive.

Ando

ANDO is the formal product of a critical analysis of the current consumerism.

Through its truncated forms, it simulates the lack of continuity that consumerism has. Its aesthetic encourages the use of itself and seeks to daily replace plastic bottles and disposable cups.

Awarded as Best Project Development by the ITESM, the best private University of México.

GROW1

In collab with IMPACT FABLAB, GROW1 was developed. More than a kitchen tech product, GROW1 is an unconditional friend in charge of providing you with the best quality of organic food in your home. GROW1 works through hydroponics and UV light baths, which not only helps vegetables grow in all weather conditions, but also saves energy and reduces your personal carbon footprint.

SSB

The Sphere Seat (SSB) was designed for the 2018 Bentley Home Design Competition. This armchair was inspired by the exquisite heritage of the Bentley style and the simply luxurious mid-century Italian furniture DNA. SSB fits comfortably to the user thanks to its independant spherical pieces that can be freely adapted at any time and any position.

Campus Madero is an experiment of educational innovation and urban regeneration that consists in a network of public spaces, services and companies in the centre of León, Guanajuato. All combined, the gave place for a week to all classes, activities and offices of the members of the School of Architecture and Design of ITESM León.

This system created unprecedented relationships among the most diverse actors in society: universities, public and private institutions, students, workers, retirees, families, even dogs! All united under a common denominator: culture and knowledge.

Is it necessary to build a campus to have a university?
