It’s planning the construction of the administrative headquarters of Atizapán Technological Park. Since the conception of the building, there has been searched that the building will be representative of the park, making it a benchmark. And also could be an integration element of all other buildings that will be located in the park. The headquarter building is proposed as a large outdoor sculpture. The implementation of this building is what gives meaning to the park. Because beyond its administrative functions, it should be a place of interaction where knowledge is transmitted and diffuse. Complying with these characteristics, it will work as a detonator core. Detonator Core From a single detonator block which is fragmented rises the distinct elements that conforms the core of the park, three pieces destineted to house the distinct uses of buildings. The biggest volume is designated for the building that gives meaning to the technological park, the Headquarters building. A second volume, an "L" shape contains the services that enhance the value of the Headquarters building, keeping a close relationship with it. The third volume collects the idea of the intangible of scientific knowledge; this one represents the other buildings that occupy the park. The headquarters building has a more powerful volumetric presence than the rest of the park buildings, and the intention to open to them, by generating a large receiver void that makes the Headquarters building the medullary point of the deployment. In this void is generated in a meeting place, an indoor area that remembers the pre-Hispanic sites designated, in which there were not fences that isolate man and nature.

The project is developed in seven levels, which include Basementa, the Ground Floor and five upper floors. The different uses to house will be: Management of the park, business incubators, pre-industrial activities, offices, exhibition and videoconferencing rooms and business areas The basement level will be delimitated for the parking lot by most of its perimeter, will house the general installations, the Site and the pre-industrial activities, placed in this floor for reasons of accessibility. The ground floor houses the auditorium services, commercial spaces equipped with a double height and the administration area of the park, on which we place the video conferencing rooms. The first floor is actually the main floor where is located the large square which is reached by a large ramp that begins at the ground floor, the square leads to the auditorium and exhibits which can be opened into this space; this floor also has access to shared reception for incubators, offices, administration and pre-industrial activities. In the second and third floor are incorporated the area for business incubators and meeting rooms. The fourth and fifth level houses offices with a free space that allows configuring alternative distributions. To enhance the presentations of the Headquarters building, is proposed an annex building to house the functions of Business Center and the gym, having a useful cover to serve as a link between the access to the park and the headquarters building, connecting master plan platforms and an outdoor forum, which can be integrated with the Headquarters building auditorium.

Information Society - Knowledge Society We live in an era where changes occur more rapidly than at any other period in history, largely, due to changes introduced for those called new technologies. About this, Abdul Waheed Khan (Assistant Director-General of UNESCO for Communication and Information) writes: "The information society is the brick of construction for knowledge societies. While I see the concept of "information society" as attached to the idea of "technological innovation", the concept of "knowledge societies' includes a dimension of social, cultural, economic, political and institutional changes, and a perspective more pluralistic and development. From my point of view the concept of "knowledge societies" is preferable to the "information society" because it captures better the complexity and dynamism of the changes taking place. (...) Knowledge is a matter of relevance not only for economic growth but also for the enrichment and development of all sectors of society". This concept of information society has developed in the context of a neo-liberal globalization that despite introducing the force of the ordinary, in many cases is outside the singularity of particular realities. Therefore, the CINVESTAV Building has a double challenge: firstly, we must ensure that a building (solid by its very tectonics essence) transmits the concepts of lightness, complexity, dynamism and virtuality of the encompassed world by the TIC, for another, we should be able to differentiate this building (representative of the new virtuality of information technology and communication) for one to be built in other part in the world. The project should be global and Mexican at the same time.

Project description CINVESTAV (Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados del Instituto Politécnico Nacional) proposes the construction of a new headquarters in Atizapán Technological Park. From the functional point, the project can be defined as a media library in which, to their traditional functions of diffusing content, add training and research functions related to new information technologies. The project is developed in six levels, which include basement, ground floor and four upper levels. The basement will be dedicated to building installations, the site, the cafeteria´s kitchen and Nanotechnology Laboratory and Special Projects, prepared in this plant for reasons of accessibility (load and download equipment directly from the parking lot) and to avoid vibrations. On the ground floor is the main access and includes the Cafeteria, Auditorium, Multipurpose Hall and an area of attention for students. The functional program of the first floor includes classrooms, student cubicles and workspaces for group work. In this Second floor are located the teachers offices, meeting rooms, library with one introspective reading room and an informal one. On the third floor offices are available to researchers and laboratory assistants, external consultants offices, Multimedia and Test Equipment laboratories and an area of “experimentation meeting-projection” related to the Multimedia laboratory. On the fourth and final floor level, are located the administrative dependences of the CINVESTAV. Functional Criteria The primary objective of the proposal is to provide the CINVESTAV from a new center that adjust to the requirements for the compliment of (added to the wills expressed through the above document) their formation functions, research and diffuse of knowledge related with the new information society and new technologies. The building is ordered from two spaces in L shape, arranged on each floor, one from a outside terrace and the other inside of socialization or other flexible use. The location of these varies between floors, so the double-height space at the end of each space of flexible use is related to outer space of the terrace on the floor immediately below. Stairs and elevators are located in the angle of contact between the two spaces. While the elevators remain steady at the center of the floor, the stairs turn around them locating always in the inner short side of the socialization space. Finally, the core of toilets is placed in the inner short side of the outside space of terrace, splitting it from the inside of the building.

Atizapán de Zaragoza The municipality of Atizapan de Zaragoza is located in the eastern part of the State of Mexico, with an area of 94, 83 km2, a population of 472,526 habitants and a density of 4983 persons per km2 (twice the density of all the Metropolitan Area of Mexico). Presents 0.38% of the area of the state in terms of population and this number rises to 3.37% of the total state. It is therefore, an urban municipality and state importance. Topography Limits EI municipality is surrounded by other 6 municipalities with different characteristics between them, and in some way, with complementary activities. At North, Nicolás Romero (residential) and Cuautltlan Izcalll (industrial), with similar populations like Atizapán. At south is Naucalpan and Tlalnepantla. With more populations than Atizapán and with a superior industrial and commercial plant, both compose an urban corridor of state relevance. At west of the municipality is located Isidro Favela and Jilotzingo, barely populated, with little industry and a rural sector still important. Metropolitan Area These seven municipalities have formed a regional center at north of Mexico City with a population of nearly 3 million people and concentrating 42% of state GDP and 4% of the national.

It is an irregularly-shaped property defined by the slopes and valleys, for that, the topography takes great relevance.
Occupation of the Space
Territory Uses
Tension between full and empty. Meeting between natural and human spaces.
Each municipality has its urban center; however, in the existing area exist an unequal share of the equipment uses.
Atizapรกn occupies a space in which the urban and green space and are competing for territory.
Are located concentrations of cultural spaces in downtown Mexico City, while in the rest of the territory, the only cultural spaces are the universities.
The area of the technology park has the possibility to integrate city and open spaces. It is the opportunity to create a space where the building is wrapped in natural space.
The universities have a campus in both Atizapรกn and in nearby cores which establish in the environment a concentration of high quality academic areas. The same effect happens with uses like the hotelier that is concentrated in Mexico City. It would be important for new hotelier implementations that increase the offer.
Urban areas -Urban expansion -Metropolitan area of Mexico City
Network of green spaces - Protected natural areas: Guadalupe Mountains and Deer National Park. - Free Spaces: natural green areas, green urban areas, agricultural soils, nonurbanized areas. MASTERPLAN OF ATIZPร N TECHNOLOGICAL PARK CARLOS LUNA ARCHITECT 035
Mobility The regional transportation system consists in a series of concentric rings outside Mexico City that connects the distinct municipalities. Another network of radial roads links the urban settlements in downtown Mexico. The current road network has too many traffic points for that exist projects like the highway Chiluca-Nicolás Romero or the improvement of some road sections that try to improve this situation. The Technologic Park area connects directly with the peripheral highway ChampaLechería which allow rapid mobility to other roads, although they can be saturated with traffic.
Slopes
Sun Exposure
The good practices on sustainable urban, classifies the slopes of 0% to 5% as flat slopes, good for the development of any activity.
The sun directly influences on the urban and territorial environment, and its journey in the sky establishes some basic constraints on the design and subsequent welfare of any urban element. The rotation and translation of the earth annually delimit urban situations most favorable for certain uses than others, influencing zoning according with the sunning of the city. Also conditions the building facades design and determinate many factors of the network of free spaces and green areas of the city.
The slopes between 5% and 10% can be considered as medium ground. That means that exist shape condition according the uses to place. On slopes up to 10%, should take into account the land surface runoff. Is necessary to provide the points of natural drainage, landslides and other hazards, in addition to correctly dimension the urban networks. The slopes above 10% require complicated technical solutions, landfills and dumps start to be excessive and the buildings need to resort to less flexible and functional solutions. On slopes greater than 20% the risks of geological instability increases and the risk of landslides are greater.
036 CARLOS LUNA ARCHITECT MASTERPLAN OF ATIZPÁN TECHNOLOGICAL PARK
The sun trajectory should be part of strategies for urban design, where relations between the width of streets, building height and orientation of the facades may impossibility the entry of solar radiation in winter (is the most disadvantaged thermal situation in all the year, by the lack of sunlight hours).
Vegetation The nature appropriates to the new landscape and arises between the walls. Culminate the high hills preserved and virgins with native and dense vegetation. It is clearing as it descends throw the platforms, in them, is mixed exotic vegetation on a way that every new building may have a new specie. At the bottom of the great walls, the park will be the border with AtizapĂĄn, more transparent and lively. Descends through the natural causes to merge with urban plot. The lower park will be more social, playful, encounter with natural systems. The river channels that descend from the Deer Park are reflected in a big lake, which as a natural body is incorporated into the green space. Various plant species are found. In the leafy tree tops, it formed an acoustic barrier for noise protection. In the lower bounds is recovered the primitive bush forest, madrones and oaks. Among the companies can be form experimentation spaces with types of desert and warm weather of the country.
Proposed urban - Integration
Platforms
Before implanting the architecture, the retaining walls will give unit to all the actuation, adapted to the topography turning around it, defining levels, making them convex the hills, concave in the lowest part of valleys, hinting access, ramps and points of singularity.
The walls get the platforms, horizontal spaces of implementation of the companies, gardens, walks and tours, balances the excavation and fillers, preventing fleshing the hills, creating terraces, the agora and shelter underneath the parking lot.
Lines are adapted to the topography that describes the new profile. Its continuous shape delimitates the technological and natural areas. Determinate nearly flat platform on which the buildings will settle and under the parking lot where will be placed.

In front of the unity and continuity of the large walls rise the autonomy of multiple enterprise buildings. In front with its roughness are imagined diaphanous and glassy companies, in front its geomorphic, these define clearer geometries.
The walls created the cavities in the vanguard that singularize the central node where will be place the host building and industrial club. In these buildings will give the most part of the social and business life of the technologic park, for that is disposed from a front space of agora that puts them in contact.
In front of the massive walls, the light companies, in front the attachment to the land of the walls, companies equip their entry plants. It will achieve a very clear contrast that will create that the apparent freedom and anarchy of the cubes of companies are united, linked and possessing the sense of common symphony. The control of the cubic volumetric business allows generate transparency into the forests of the hills, transparencies between buildings and cross views. Despite the strong buildable achieved the sensation of free space and transparency is very remarkable.

Given the current social, economic, cultural and technology conditions, recently emerged in Mexico a new kind of livable environments that meet at this time. This vision gives place to the complex Marcs Santa Fe, a multi-use complex that will include housing, amenities, commerce, and offices. The project promotes the construction of 80 departments, 100 and 120m2 with a salable area of 40,900.00m2, offices with a rentable area of 22.680m2, and 1,530m2 for shops. This project has been conceived with the idea of creating a quality environment in which the user has all the comforts of modern life, but at the same time, can be distracted from daily life in the different green areas of the complex, and the equipment stimulate social interaction. All inside quality architecture that boosts the urban excellence. The set was developed on a site of 16.142 m2 with two fronts. The main one is on the Federal highway Mexico Toluca, which will provide access to houses where later they can lead to parking lot, or a motor lobby, which welcomes the complex. The secondary front is in the southern part of the terrain, on Avenue Prolongaci贸n Vasco de Quiroga and will providing access to offices and commercial area. The proposal is characterized by vertical towers in simple shapes that are joined around a principal axis, the horizontal volume, to form an element, creating a complex and not just towers. The bodies are built on a rugged topography, simplifying it and at the same time, living with it, throw the large of the terrain. The complex is conformed by large monochromatic blocks that reflect its function. The houses are in white volumes and the offices are black, contrasting between them, also with the green of nature on which they settle.

Residential towers are designed around rigid cores, which concentrate facilities, allowing flexible areas for the free distribution of rooms and apartments, and in the facade are extracted blocks to generate movement that in the floors, gives distinct types of departments. To meet all the expectations of the future habitants of the departments, have proposed a number of spaces that encourage meetings and leisure, these spaces connect the towers and include ballroom, infant areas, gym, lanes swimming, sunning, snack area, spa and a jogging circuit. For the location of these areas was looked to take this great view of Santa Fe. Parking lots are located in the lower part and basements of buildings that reach up to five levels, to provide a total of 1990 places.

The study object for this project is "The image as expression in the search of a self identity�. Currently the young Mexican designers are developing their own creations, with an extreme cosmopolitanism vocation. It should not be too complicated for search definitions or distinctive features on: How is fashion Mexico? It is because in Mexico, today is made "an international fashion� comparable to the other countries, although it has singular contributions. The priority is to "take position as value designers" in an environment wider than the country. It is trying to be in an international level. Develop a fashion center in Mexico City, to promote and spread the Mexican design beyond our country. Which is qualified to carry out designers conferences, experimental fashion workshops and spaces for exhibitions and banquets, as well as a forum to carry out walkways. In addition to a boutique where gives place the new Mexican talent. The intention of this project goes beyond a performance center, is the power in an integrated way, carry out study activities, experiment, promote, exhibit and develop fashion.

On the premise of designing a module that is repeated and continuously modified the approach of this project is based on the possibility of ordered and gradual growth for each of the houses. The independence of the modules gives the single quality of a progression that keeps the complex as an image visually coherent and composed. The module housing complex, born as a result of repeat, deface and group 2600 blocks that translate and land an idea of conceptual origin to the habitable state. With a modulation in feet that looks for the convenience of saving material per volume: every house in their last stage of progression reaches up to four modules.

INHABITING THE HISTORIC CENTER

Project Belen Quireza, Carlos Corral, Carlos Luna, Raul Arroyo, Susana Arellano, Verusca Segura Locate Centro Historico, D.F. Type Mixed use COMPETITION
The competition lies in giving space to different uses in an irregular terrain, located in an rescue zone of historic downtown. To attack this issue we retake a pair of words. Momentum Vitael. Interrelation of moments of daily life in a same space. After analyzing the strategic location of the terrain with such defined features, was obtained as a premise of the need to generate traffic flows. First one is from outside to inside, another inside the terrain that invites to discover the project routes, at last, from inside to outside finishing in a green area. We used interlaced prisms to form the whole complex. The prisms of different materials correspond to a function that takes place in its interior, as rest, work, being and cooking. The large volume that overcome in proportion to the small prisms, serves as the focal axis. With a strategic location inside the terrain, acts as a union element between the interior and exterior. The volume has movable panels that open during the day and remain closed when are not performing activities in it. The houses uses are complementary, like a forum, a wellness center, an elevated track and an event hall. The forum is generated as a middle space between inside and outside of the build, is resolved by a green slope that descends under the volume. The free line, with an organic shape contrasts with the orthogonality of the created spaces, it provides an overview of the complex, and propose and innovate the sport logistic to continue in the wellness center.
