Master Plan !
Public health institutions are very complex projects because they have to deal with elements that allow for the healing of the patients and, at the same time, provide comforting sensations that generate well-being, relaxation, and a calm environment. In this type of project catering to children, it is important to manage areas where adults and kids are provided enough space for recreational activities and where patients’ concerns are diminished.! ! The main axis for this project is the construction of open spaces for social interaction and recreation such as courtyards oriented toward a green-space concept that will guide users to a different, warmer feeling that goes beyond the ordinary perception of hospitals. This time, we are undertaking the “health center” concept. We start with the creation of a central green space that works as the main visual point for most of the spaces in the center. This area provides a transition between the treatment zone and the hospitalization section; at the same time, it works as the lungs of the institution. Connected to the principal users and the need of an attractive environment for the kids, the green-space concept is joined to the idea of an amusement park, where a 45-degree axis provides the movement of big blocks that are brought together by green areas, water mirrors, and tunnels, all at different heights.!

Student Residential & Commercial Zone! Santo Domingo, D.R! 2011! Â ! This project is expected to present a structure that fills the requirements for providing a residence that incorporates all the basic needs required by students during their stay in college. The initial concept responds to the location and the composition of the surroundings, bringing a construction that integrates living spaces with recreational areas and an open commercial zone that will allow social contact among users; in conjunction, it will contribute as a safe, creative, and comfortable area which will be part of their educational experience. ! Â ! The project is part of a set of buildings that will regenerate the sector of Gazcue, a Santo Domingo neighborhood that is known for its historical, touristic, institutional, and commercial potentials, thus conserving and maximizing these strengths. ! Â ! Areas: Dorms, a library, a kitchen, a dining room, an administration area, a laundry room, a gym, a terrace, living rooms, and a commercial zone. !

Cabana/
Cultural-Eco Hotel !
The cabana model was created for 6 occupants. T h e c o n s t r u c t i o n requirements were for an ecological building using local material, especially wood. It is part of an Ecological Hotel project located in the mountains of Barahona, Dominican Republic. All cabana models were conceptualized with idea of highlighting the vegetation that surrounds each area of lodgings. !

! Comercial and Cultural Exchange Zone! Strategic-Vision Border Development:
It is a space located on the northern part of the border, on the Dominican side, for the cultural and commercial interaction between Haiti and the Dominican Republic. It attempts to be a market model for both countries. For this project, different elements that influence current trade were taken into consideration, all with the main idea of making a proposal for a simple structure which reflects both cultures and their architectural conceptions. Local materials were used and solutions responding to the environmental problems were considered. ! Â ! The project includes trade zones, recreational spaces, green zones, and institutional buildings that are already located in the area and that deal with commerce. This whole project attempts to carry out a fusion of the solutions to the environmental problems that make continuous trade difficult. It also rescues the values and traditions of the users and their natural environment. ! Â !
