VELUM

MÉNDEZ ÁLVARO,MADRID, SPAIN

VELUM is a new borough designed for the old railroad port in Méndez Álvaro, Madrid. The new neighbourhood intails a new way of living and a new connection for the broken up green circle that surrounds the city of Madrid. With it comes a new continuity for the river stream that also boarded the city, but has been hiding underneath for many years. Proposing overall an idea for the regenaration of very dense and crowded cities . Not only by the proposition of a new style of building and urbanasing areas to a greener more community based city, but also to empower the idea of the possibility of fixing the already existing city to adapt to our new needs. To abandon the idea of spreading out and expanding the city and instead nurture the thought of cleansing and rehabilitating the pre-existing city.

VELUM in it´s new borough design, the intent is to create the embodiement of the missing green patch piece that will close the circle that surrounds Madrid. We represent this by creating a mountain range , also with the intent of creating a new backdrop for the slope that the railways behind it provide. This will also act as terraces sometimes for individual use and sometimes for community gardens or playgrounds.

The city and the buildings themselves are both founded around the sense of community and living a slower more ecological life . This is accomplished in urbanism and in architecture by implanting different scales of community building , so that the current way of individualism in Spain is slowly currupted from the inside . We coomplish this by having a communal pathway to each home, thick enough to use as more than a pathway, including one commun area per floor with a different type of activity or space in each one, also appealing to the co-living of the whole building. Taking it one step forward, all the buildings have a public comercial ground floor and a playground for each two buildings, which incites even more activity buildings. To connect other buildings from the surroundings, we placed many communal gardening spaces, as well as plazas and other activity parks. And lastly, to connect this new borought to the rest of Madrid, we built a Communal street market, for people from outside to be able to also buy the food collected,

ORIGIN

COLMENAR VIEJO,MADRID, SPAIN

ORIGIN is born from the need to solve a long time social problem in the segragated village of Colmenar Viejo, located in the city of Madrid. Many immigrants have slowly made there way there, creating powerfull and big communities of different backgrounds. This adds to the already pressing issue of unemployment, poverty, violence between communities and negligence of immigrants (which are 20% of the population and most live in the centre of the village, creating overcrowding in some areas). These communities fight between them all the time, but they don´t realise that they´re all having the same problems.

To solve this issue, measures must be taken from the origin and beggining of these problems. Starting with the kids, which are sometimes neglected of education or proper care, through adolesence and quiete space, to the unemployed or reformed who have no help. It also had to be aproached from a standpoint of level of interaction between these communities, because having a sacred spaces is normally not enough, it has to serve a purpose, a need a nessesity. It has to be properly transitioned and curated. Thats the pourpose of this building.

Solve the problems in the communities of Colmenar Viejo by creating a sacred and safe space for them to cheerish and grow.

EL BERRUECO,MADRID, SPAIN

My intention is to create a new essence, a new way of living and experiencing the village . We will do this by a ctivating the spaces now called “in ruins” that abound in the central core. These materials will be r eused and new alternatives will be given to these spaces, such as community gardens, squares, playgrounds, parks... By activating certain points, we will naturally create a new route , a direction and path immersed in the town that will act as an alternative to the municipal road that crosses it. In this way we reconnect the town with the scattered villages such as Peñaguilar and at the same time create a new clear line of extension of the town.

The hillside where we will work is a crucial point of this connection and extension, since it is the farthest and least populated of the surroundings. With my buildings i have maintained the new historical essence of the village , which is the stone and the ruin. I have created a new interpretation based of the breakage of a stone and the path it creates between its pieces , achieving total immersion. The effect of slanted stone and ruin will be created based on a set of triangulated loggias that when joined together create different squares or community spaces to revitalize the environment and its surroundings.
