Battle Royale / Medialab Edition is a workshop on open designs and common infrastructures, which proposes practical pedagogical exercises on how to furnish the urban laboratories that we can find in a city like Madrid. The entire practice of the workshop will be a live experi mentation on the formats and methodologies of collective work, introducing rules of the game that allow each work shop facilitator a high degree of independence and at the same time a need to agree and generate consensus with the rest of the participants.
During the week (from June 29 to July 4) we will manufacture a large number of OPEN SOURCE urban planning ob jects that will be coordinated within a common structure that will give meaning to the entire performance. A workshop with PKMN, Basurama and zuloark organized by the PEI of the Javeriana University of Bogotá and Medialab Prado.

The project will propose to combine one of the virtues of the Bario Aguas Claras, which is the initiative and the profes sions of the inhabitants, offering a space that unites the two opportunities that can be transformed at the same time.
The communities in the neighborhoods of invasion, have become a recurrent theme with regard to the expansion of the urban territory, this is because these spaces located in the limits of the city do not legally belong to any side. The con sequence of this is the absence of some basic characteristics in these sectors, even with regard to basic needs such as water, electricity, food, among others.
Identifying through the Nolli, the permeabil ity of the zones, it is found that the sector is connected through two components: the or dinary vehicular trails and local commerce. This means that the survival of the inhabitants of the area is based on what the communi ty produces or the things that surround them.
The structure of the house consists of a house made of materials, most of them sustainable, that try to form a habitable space with the capacity for transformation, either through the creation of new interior spaces or, on the contrary, the liberation of existing ones. Inside the house, there is a series of architectural characteristics that choose to maintain the typology of the houses of the place that speak of self-construction and experienced labor by the owners, trying to access materials for the use of the in habitants in a ordinary, as well as construction techniques that may be known for possible changes desired by the owners.
