building.

construction, Such continuity tells the history of the building from its constructionXVII century- till the present.

How can we, as an architect, think and project a city with this data and how can we achieve
people with this information?
This exercise was a first step to bring data to the city and the people/
The project consisted in a 1:1 scale section of the real street allowing a direct interaction
between the project and the people. Exposing data makes people realize how the city looks
like and rethink how to improve it.

‘manipulate’ the spaces we project is the main point of this project.

3. The project, located in Qingdao, includes 100000 sqm for mixed use- 60 000 housing and
40 000sqm commercial.
The project is still in the concept design phase and should achieve the appropriated form
for the program, be functional and take care of the public spaces as much as the private
spaces.
Also should be sensitive to the environment around and be able to define itself as a new
landmark in Qingdao.

26. Parking. One of the main concerns in U.S.A.
The project tries to clean the actual concept of parking from peoples’ minds and make
them understand how can it development to something different.
The main goal was to create a prototype and study the strategies necessary to implement
the project elsewhere.
The final project should be able to convert parking into cultural space, when not used, and
allow to recycle the building for new future functions- office, housing.
This way the parking could be idealize as a very architectonic building, recyclable and
public.
From the analysis of the problems and the opportunities, the project intends to include in
the proposal all the parameters that could be an advantage to the project- empty plots,
new developments, future parks, etc.
One important strategy was to use a future park plot for the project so we could have the
public space and add other uses to interact between them without damage each other.

Even if the main strategy was to create a prototype, adaptable to anywhere, it was also
intended to apply and adapt the project to a site and real situation.
In this case is important that our project interacts with the activities surrounding- university,
new residential, restaurants etc- to provide the parking but also the public space that East
Village requires.
