ABOUT ME
Even looking like something difficult do achieve , Architecture and Urban
Planning bring me closer to making difference in the life of a person. Plan the
city and its spaces fascinates me, every change in the streets or just a wall can
make a big difference in the reality of those who live that place.
The architect aware of the power that he has through his knowledge and
studies can change a neighborhood, a city or even a whole society.
The aim of this project was to create a
new center for this neighborhood, we
proposed a complete structure, such as
a new avenue, streets, an commercial
center and an educational equipment.
The school is for children’s education,
so it has sports fields, a playground and
a library. The roof received a
landscaping work with some routes and
the building has colored windows.
The school’s fronts that receive directly
the sun light have mobile protections to
provide thermal comfort.

SCHOOL
The place’s topography was respected,
so the building was implanted by levels,
always giving universal accessibility
inside it with ramps.
The accesses for the school are from
the ground floor and the roof, this two
floors are connected by an stair and a
child’s slide.

Ground Floor
The goal of this project is to create a park with a library. It was produced in groups, we
started with curves and circles and they become the central element, being present at the
whole project, inside and outside of the building.
We propose a sports complex, gardens including a sensory garden, a square and
parkings.
LIBRARY
Park
The project took into account
the concept of thermal
comfort, with protections for
the excessive light and
windows that provides cross
air circulation.
The two blocks that form the
library are arranged such that
they accommodate to the
topography.
The materials chosen for the
building are wood, concrete,
glass and the black panes to
generate solar energy , and
under the block on stilts there is
a thin layer of water.
The library has a green roof
following the same design of the
whole project..
LIBRARY
The whole furniture was developed exactly for this library, following the same
language.
The circulation between the floors is made by an elevator surrounded by a stair. The
elevator is panoramic and provides the view of all internal space.

This project is a building with social interest,
respecting some issues such as no more than
four floors and specially the maximum total area
of the construction. At the internal space of
each apartment the social area is separated from
the privative one. And the bedrooms always have
their windows turned to north or east ensuring
healthier spaces.
SOCIAL HOUSING

Jointly with the building with four floors
I designed a superimposed house,
ensuring privacy for each one of the
families. The house has a mix of
material as wood, glass and ceramic
bricks.
All the bedrooms have a good
orientation with windows turned to east
and even for the others orientations the
house has a protection for the
excessive sun light.

The goal of this project was to work with
topography. It was produced in groups
and we proposed a central flat area
surrounded by others higher, it makes
people walk trough the square to
discover the place.
Emphasizing the idea of discovering the
place by the walk we also proposed a
belvedere. All the places are accessible
for any person, including people with
special necessities.
SQUARE - MODEL
SQUARE - MODEL
The materials used were thick
cardboard, wooden sticks and sponge.
The reference was from an existing
place so we had to adopt the
topography of the sidewalk without
alterations.
There are some of my drawings that
were produced during my preparation
for the entrance exam for university and
the course.
