The way the informal city builds itself over time has determined how its elements and individuals relate to each other. These elements make possible the building particular experiences; where the streets and pedestrian pathways function as spaces for social exchange, the flexible housing units can grow according to the needs and possibilities of the family, and the mixing of program and activities keep the neighborhood active at different times.

THE OPEN BUILDING

Possible Setups

A space to culture International Competition | Young Architects Competition | Bologna, Italy | 2014 | B. Lamelo, N. Covarrubia

Faced with the possibility of transforming an industrial building into a cultural center, we thought about how an old factory could mutate into a work space for creativity. In that sense and considering the current dynamics of society (start-ups, cooperatives, collectives) a concept of an “Open Building” is proposed; an option where the skeleton and main construction elements of the building are preserved, as they are understood as Italian industrial heritage. To this it is added the use of modular structures that will enable the building for the new cultural activities. The flexibility in the use of these structures will allow the transformation of the space into different setups, allowing the users to change the space according to their needs, adapting to different situations (art galleries, theater performances and films, workshops and offices, hotel and apartments for artists, etc). It is a proposal that promotes individual freedom within the collective space that is the “Open Building”.

This cultural hub and multipurpose room was constructed after the recovery and rehabilitation of an unused unfinished structure. The reuse of existing elements and a focus for efficiency in the design increased the feasibility of the building, and as a proof of this, it was constructed in few weeks. Local community and participation played a relevant role in the project, as the project represents one of the few cultural spaces available for this area. * All images and plans are property of Lab.Pro.Fab.

SANTA ROSA SPORTS CENTER Sports Facility, social architecture Professional Work | Lab.Pro.Fab. | Caracas, Venezuela | 2014

Located in an area of scarcity of public and recreational spaces, this sports center aims to give the community a space for the enjoyment of sport and leisure activities. By layering the sport courts from the ground floor to the roof top, the building enables maximum soil occupancy, and at the same time, it allows to have a major square in front of the building that will serve as an iconic public space for the surroundings. The proposal of this project is to foment social cohesion in this low income area and to provide the community with spaces for the enjoyment of urban life.

URBAN ENTERTAINMENT CENTER OF CARABALLEDA Metropolitan Facility and Public Space 2nd Place | Steel Design National Competition ILAFA 2010 | Caraballeda, Venezuela | 2010 B. Lamelo, M. Ramos, J. García

Problem Statement: Caraballeda is part of the Venezuelan Port System. It is an area with high touristic potential and a source for entertainment and recreation for the capital city. Unfortunately, it is also a highly seismic and landslide-prone area, which has been affected in recent years by natural disasters and that after over 10 years hasn’t been recovered. Objective: The aim of this proposal is the urban renewal of the area, while putting into value the touristic assets of Caraballeda and providing the incorporation of new services and equipment to assist the community. Master Plan: For the Caraballeda Port Master Plan, six points for intervention were defined. Together they will constitute an architectural and urban complex intended for public use. These six intervention points are: Fishermen’s Port (1), Access to the bathing area (2), the rehabilitation of the urban front (3) the Bus Terminal (4) the Sports Complex (5) and the access to the Main Port (6).

As a proposal for the rehabilitation of the access to the Main Port (6) and the formalization of it as a new center that promotes tourism in the area, it is proposed to link the area with cultural activities (cinemas, art galleries , outdoor amphitheaters) which is practically absent in the area. Thus, the Urban Entertainment Center of Caraballeda is born.

In order to understand the unknown territory, we proceeded to study its elements, to understand how they have determined the qualities of the site; in particular, attention is paid to the fine and fuzzy lines between different areas: the limits, which allow us to understand the dynamics and vocation of the territory. In this case study, the existence of a risk zone, located in one of the topographical limits, separates the natural landscape from the urban area, and shows continuous attempts of invasion by the latter, which worsens existing problems of landslides and soil erosion.

Projecting the unknown territory has its advantages. When analyzing a case, it can be seen with a first time critical eye. There are no preconceptions and this helps getting to more accurate conclusions and possibilities of intervention that are specific for the case study.

THE VIEWPOINT FERTILIZER The study of the unknown territory Academic Project | Best Projects 2011 USB receiver | Caracas, Venezuela | 2011

Strategy: It is decided to consolidate the risk zone limit through a constructed element that would change the character of the area but that would also respect and recognize the landslide as a natural event. At the same time, it is intended to reorganize the activities of the area through densification, in order to stop further invasions and to try to reforest the area by taking advantage of the landslides for spreading nutrients. Thus arises the idea of a fertilizer building. However, in order to consolidate the intervention, it is necessary to foment new spatial situations that would change the spatial dynamics of the place. For this matter it is proposed that the element operates also as a viewpoint, taking advantage of the natural balcony condition it has, facing the landscape.

Fertilizer floor plan

Both ideas are embodied in a spatial proposal, where the existing natural event that defines the place is complemented and reinforced by interesting spatial situations that reconstruct the landscape and therefore construct the city.

INHABITATING THE LIMIT Inhabitable Bridge over the Albarregas River Bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree Final Project | Honorable Mention | Merida, Venezuela | 2011

Objective: The city of Merida is divided by the Albarregas River, a topographic inaccessible limit, ignored by the inhabitants as it is occupied by trash and informal settlements. The proposal aims to connect both sides of the river through a inhabitable bridge that will transform the river into an integrating element for the city and will act as an exchange area between both sides of the city.The proposal seeks to integrate the historical grid, the river and the modern city, so that the activities of the city can expand into the park, the park as a public space is recognized, admired and enjoyed and new ways of living the city for the community are generated.

INHABITATING THE LIMIT Inhabitable Bridge over the Albarregas River Bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree Final Project | Honorable Mention | Merida, Venezuela | 2011

In order to avoid a zoning configuration in the use of space and to ensure maximum occupancy of the bridge, a normative on gradual occupation is set, which determines a gradual mix of uses, in the horizontal and vertical sense. In existing, proposed and recovered typologies, the spirit of the proposal can be appreciated: the inhabitable bridge must provide the connection between both sides of the river, and also it should enable activities to happens in its own structure. It is a square and a gallery, it is a viewpoint and a residence, and it is the platform where all the local elements meet and mingle to produce rich experiences.

INHABITATING THE LIMIT Inhabitable Bridge over the Albarregas River Bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree Final Project | Honorable Mention | Merida, Venezuela | 2011

The key elements of the project (the program, the bridge and the landscape) are present in the architectural proposal. Each level of the building presents a program that is related to the immediate context, and also, the proposal introduces urban operations that benefit the existing spatial relationships and enable functional and spatial development. As for the landscape, the three main courtyards of the building allow the interaction between the users and the park. In addition, the inhabitable bridge introduces new dwelling typologies and new ways of inhabiting the city: the Urban Block, which proposes the reconstruction of a continuous urban front in the old town; the Suspended Building, which enjoys the spatial qualities of living suspended over the river; and the Terraced Building, which reinterprets the informal settlements that adapt to the topography and that has strong connections with the park.

3 Actions that conform the strategy 3 Key Interventions (T1, T2, T3)

Masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Degree Final Project | European Postgraduate Master in Urbanism EMU | Merida, Venezuela | 2015 INTENSIFY THE TRANSVERSAL

T1 3 WAYS OF CROSSING

Objective: The aim of this thesis is to create a strategy for the urban regeneration and development of Merida, on the premise of rethinking the infrastructure space in the search of urbanity. It is an opportunity to structure the transformation of the city into a consolidated touristic and student town, as well it is an opportunity to propose a new paradigm for the contemporary city where the relationship between nature, city and infrastructure is rebuilt.

REDEFINE THE LONGITUDINAL

Strategy: A strategy of crossing the lines between infrastructure and nature is set, in order to tackle the problems of the city and at the same time, to create the conditions that promote urbanity. The strategy consists of three main actions: to increase the transversal connections; to redefine the longitudinal axes and to cross these lines, in order to generate new points of maximum interaction in the city. Testing ground: To test the strategy, 3 interventions are proposed in an area chosen as case study, each responding to an action of the strategy. Besides being examples, these are strategic interventions and intend to be triggers of the transformation of the city.

T1 “Three ways of crossing”: For this intervention, it is proposed to create more transversal axes to give priority to slow mobility and public transportation systems, with the intention of generating different spatial situations that enrich urban experience and give the inhabitant different options for moving around the city. The proposal also promotes the cross between different uses, especially between urban programs and the ones associated to nature. Finally, the intervention aims to improve the urban space, looking to improve the overall quality of the city and to bring benefits to all residents.

THE KNOWLEDGE ECOSYSTEM â&#x20AC;&#x153;A Knowledge-based spatial developmentâ&#x20AC;? Academic Project | European Postgraduate Master in Urbanism EMU | Westland Greenport, NL | 2015 B. Lamelo, N. Covarrubia, G. de Neuville, A. Ergamina, W. Park

Objective: The aim of this project is to develop a strategic plan for the spatial development of the South Wing of the Randstad Region in the Netherlands, based on the theories of knowledge economy. It is chosen to work with the economic area of the Greenports, specifically in the Westland Greenport, as this case study gathers the best knowledge qualities to be strengthened and consolidated, therefore it is a suitable area for Knowledge Development.

South Wing Economic Areas full of knowledge and Innovation

Vision: the Westland Greenport will become a Knowledge Ecosystem, where the dimensions of knowledge will coexist and make synergy consolidating itself as the Top City of the Greenports. Strategy: To achieve the vision, a strategy of three actions is set: clustering, in order to strengthen the current facilities and infrastructure of knowledge; connecting, by creating better physical connections between the clusters and with the surrounding environment; and intertwining, to articulate these social and economic activity along a Knowledge Corridor.

PROJECTING THE TERRITORY An strategic territorial project for the valley of Cardener River Academic Project | European Postgraduate Master in Urbanism EMU | Bages, Spain | 2013 B. Lamelo, M. Carrillo, N. Covarrubia, L. Ciccu, D. Zelayarรกn, G. Millรกn, F. Michailidou, B. Guedes, G. de Neuville

Context: The project is located in a unique territory with great morphological and landscape diversity, the Bages Area; specifically in the valley of the Cardener, one of its main river structures. As a physical unit, the valley of the Cardener River evidences the historical occupation of the territory, especially in the activities of mining and industry that in some cases are still functioning. It is also a corridor where urban settlements have evolved throughout history and today set different dynamics together.

The Baix Cardener, a unique and diverse territory

Activities and dynamics of the Baix Cardener

Task: The current process of socioeconomic re-activation of the Baix Cardener Area demands for a territorial project for this section of the valley, as this will serve as an instrument to ensure a sustainable development where its main resources are put in value. Methodology: The area was analyzed according to a 3 layers system (natural support, infrastructure and settlements). The interplay between these layers revealed the existence of different logics that affect the territory. These logics correspond to the way the Cardener Valley has been occupied and used considering its morphology.

Analysis Conclusions: The area is seen as the encounter between two logics that coexist: the natural and the human logic. In this reading, attention is paid to the interstices between these two logical sets, as they are meeting spots between different entities. In addition, the territory is seen as a set of compression and decompression, as the river has shaped the landscape of the valley and this has conditioned human activity and landscape value. With these readings, fragments with individual identities were defined, in relation to both logics.

Objective: After the recognition of five units that operate by contiguity and complementarity, it is established as main objective to connect these units, in order to achieve territorial cohesion, acknowledging the differences and working with the identity and diversity of each unit. These units have two elements in common: the lines (roads and systems of mobility that intertwine and reinforce the large unit idea) and the points (flexible spaces for the development of multiple activities). One of the points was developed as a personal project.

THE CITY AFTER THE MEDITERRANEAN GAMES Plan for Tarragona 2017 Academic Project | European Postgraduate Master in Urbanism EMU | Tarragona, Spain | 2014

Objective: Considering that the Mediterranean Games will take place in the city of Tarragona in 2017 and that the city is preparing for the event, this was an opportunity to rethink the city and develop an urban plan for â&#x20AC;&#x153;after the gamesâ&#x20AC;?, against the bad practice of planning for the immediacy, the intention was to create the conditions for the city to develop successfully even after the event has passed. Methodology: Among the aspects analyzed of the area, particular attention was given to the system of open and public spaces & facilities, as it was key to secure the habitability of the future development. Parting from this map, a plan for Tarragona 2017 was designed.

The master plan for Tarragona 2017 proposed a master proposal for the open spaces system and facilities, and 7 strategic areas for development. The guidelines for each area were the integration of the proposal with the open space system, a mix of uses and activities, and the strengthening of the main urban axes. As a personal project, the area of â&#x20AC;&#x153;La Florestaâ&#x20AC;? was developed.

T H E C U LT U R A L D E LTA A review over Les Rambles International Workshop | Besides Tourism ETSAB UPC | Barcelona, Spain | 2011 B. Lamelo, K. Sabirli, M. Jordan, Y. Wang, D. Carballo, Y. Sik Moon, A. Sanz

Problem Statement: The proposal envisions Les Rambles, an area of great urban and touristic importance in Barcelona, as a river that is born in Catalunya Square, flows through the historical center and finally ends in a large delta, the port area. Unfortunately, the ending of this river is a dispersed urban space. The commercial and cultural activities in the area award it with great potential as a cultural and touristic node, however the existing roads interrupt the flow of public space and become a problem for pedestrian flows that arrive to this space and scatter because of the lack of clear urban space.

Proposed public space

Objective: The aim of the proposal is the creation of a defined space for the arrival of Les Rambles and the other paths that arrive to the Cultural Delta. A traffic redefinition is proposed, to prioritize pedestrians over the vehicle. The unification of the pavement in the area of intervention will facilitate pedestrian traffic and at the same time, will reduce car speed.

Views and Sections of the intervention

General and Specific site of intervention

Strategy: To consolidate the area it is proposed to rethink public space and integrate the ground floors of existing buildings with the urban space, thus enriching the pedestrian experience and providing continuity of pedestrian flows. With the opening of the ground floors, the relationship between the city and the sea that is now discontinued but that is the natural condition of the site is recovered.

Task: The theme of the workshop addresses the area of Jurong West, a monofunctional, segregated and fragmented industrial area, which has been designed after a zoning strategy and represents the heart of the industrial economy of the past. The aim of the workshop was to structure and envision Jurong’s transformation into an area for possible urban development and clean industry that could integrate with the existing green and residential areas.

Strategy: To achieve this “Habitable Jurong” it is proposed to decentralize productivity, thereby achieving Productive Singapore 2050, and thus freeing space for inputting habitability in Jurong. Decentralization is recognized as an emerging process in industry today, which will be emphasized by current trends, including miniaturization of production.

PEDALING CARACAS Metropolitan Bike Path Network 4th Place | Caracas a Pedal Competition | Caracas, Venezuela 2012 | B. Lamelo, N. Covarrubia, C. Levy

Objective: The aim of the proposal is to promote urban cycling as a possible solution for the problems of mobility of Caracas through the implementation of a bikepath network and its associated services. It is a proposal that focuses on the progressive change of infrastructure and civic culture. In each phase of the project it is intended to have enough strength to change mindsets and make urban cycling a new reality for citizens. Methodology: To establish the main routes, the main points that generate urban dynamics were studied, and in that way, the bike path network is based on real flows and is adjusted to the current needs of the population. Nodes were also established, and were categorized in major and minor nodes, in order to determine the function of each. The nodes were also used to provide the city of urban infrastructure. Phases: In terms of short- and medium-term feasibility of the project, it is intended that the first stage of formalizing the network involves minimal impact on existing roads. This involves initiatives such as the redeployment of wide roads, the use of separation elements, the improvement or creation of pavements, the treatment of intersections, among others.
