Table of contents “The physical characteristics of walls are not decisive as to their meaning. Rather, the key question is: Who is on which side of the wall? Does the wall perpetuate power, or defend against it? Does it reinforce domination, or shield vulnerability? Does it strengthen hierarchical relationships among people, or does it pave the way towards greater equality?” Peter Marcuse

Coastal Hills: A new urban system for the other Lima

CARLOS ESPINOZA BARDALES | portfolio

THE PROBLEM

Coastal Hills: A new urban system for the other Lima 79% of Lima’s housing deficit is located in the coastal hills which makes it urgent to think of alternatives. An ecosystem analysis of the coastal hills deforestation and the housing deficit allows us to propose a holistic solution by overcoming the spatial determinism to which our profession is often stick to. The unsustainability of the slum’s system lies in the forced imitation of passive urban elements and the traditional economy structure of the formal city. The idea was to reconsider the role of housing, parks and streets to create a more sustainable and economically viable city. Part of the solution is found in the multifunctionality of these elements and the consideration of economic logics, consistent with its geographical and cultural context. Thus, an urban system that can be progressively implemented and sustained over time was proposed.

Analysis of the new urban system: elements and structures.

The Border: A multifunctional space where urban agriculture and recreation takes place.

Road Infrastructure: Paved, unpaved roads and different street sections that adapt to a wide range of vehicles from “mototaxis” to bigger buses.

The Border: A multifunctional space where harvesting water is possible because of the locally built fog catchers

Public Space: A new urban structure that offers recreational spaces at different heights of the ravine, while assuming a role in the sewage and fog catching recycle system.

The Macro proposal: A new urban and economic structure coherent with its territory, based in green economy

Nodes and connectors: A multifunctional park which besides its recreative function, treats sewage and promotes recycling

The Macro proposal: A new urban and economic structure coherent with its territory, based in green economy

A sustainable building built progressively in 3 phases will recycle the advertisement structures of construction companies to cut cost. Also at the top will have a fog catcher to produce its own water

Nodes and connectors: The phytodepuration of grey water in each house’s front yard and in t staggered streets serves as an alternative to sewage system while changing the arid landscape.

Sewage and water: A fog catcher system that provides water for human consumption at strategically points to serve a maximum of 80 people. And a progressive sewage system which treats the sewage inside the block to produce biogas.

THE BLOCK

A view from one side of the agricultural border, watching the whole new city at the ravine.

The houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flexible architecture allows the fusion of two adjoining houses into a single space. This will make easy to adapt the house to more public uses and cut expenses in the process.

The Strategic water supply has a maximum capacity for 80 people. According to the WHO a single peson shouldnÂ´t take more than 20 min to gather water.

THE HOUSE

The 1st phase of housing development: The basic housing for two to four people. Consists of concrete slabs, retaining walls and a nucleus of services (kitchen, stairs, bathrooms) The partition walls and facade can be built by the owner.Offers flexible spaces to set up a family workshop and a a backyard to practice agriculture and save money

The 2nd phase of housing development: The renting housing. The family can save money buy renting the second floor to 4 tenants

The 1st phase of sewage treatment consist of a system that recycles the sewage of the block to produce biogas. The mantainance of the pipes is donde by a service corridor at the back of the houses.The cost of this can be assumed by all the block

The 3rd phase of housing development: The densified housing.After saving money the owner can build a second floor for the expansion of the family (grandsons)

The 2nd phase of the sewage treatment consist in the independence of the sewage treatment. A family that could afford the price connecting to the main grid could go solo or associate with more neighbors of the block to cut expenses.

The house as an investment: Flexibility of uses as a way of saving and earning money. A perspective of the new green corridors and a gathering point of the water system

Rewriting collective imaginaries

Rewriting collective imaginaries. New cartographies for Post Earthquake Pisco City What is the city but people? –William Shakespeare. The essence of a city doesn’t rely in it’s built environment but in the intangible processes developed within. The project sees the tragedy as an opportunity to build a new Pisco by implementing a participatory process that involves different social collectivities. The mapping of urban imaginaries and social collectives in a single cartography allows to discover a new city defined by its people. This will serve as a start point to reorganize the city and to think new goals for it’s development.

Rewriting collective imaginaries

THE PROPOSAL

Before: A destroyed plot brings up a new terrain vague where garbage a danger meet.

The establishment of a new public signage system allowed to build a new imaginarie for Pisco, where the attractors were defined by itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own social collectivity

The transformation of an abandoned space by means of collective organization serves as an introduction of what could be done in a bigger scale.

From the space to the Place: Building a sense of belonging

Creating new cartographies with the help of itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residents from all ages assures the social involvement and success of the project.

After: A new public space where new social activities converge offer an opportunity to rediscover a new Pisco

A new binacional city for the integration in the frontier of Perú -Ecuador

A new binacional city for the integration in the frontier of Perú -Ecuador Aguas Verdes is a commercial town that was developed informally in flood areas of the Zarumilla River. Characterized by smuggling zones, the invasion of public spaces and it’s polluted international canal, generates a chaotic city lacking developmental guidelines which leads to a misdirection of public and private investment. Through the Peruvian- Ecuadorian Binational Plan, both republics seek to achieve the development of the border conurbation of Huaquillas-Aguas Verdes, assigning new territorial roles. The Peruvian town of Aguas Verdes seeks to consolidate itself as a large shopping and entertainment space while Huaquillas will provide complementary urban services. To this end, seven national investment projects and 3 binational were formulated.

Habitating the mountain desert: Housing for 11,000 people

Habiting the mountain desert: Housing for 11,000 people The north of Lima has an important percent of available terrains for the expansion of the city. Our terrain is near to Anconâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s litoral and located over 28,4 hectares of mountainous land with 25% of slope where the ocean can be seen. Besides its panoramic view, the project had to deal with an informal settlement located at the top of the terrain. In order to avoid making a gated community, the middle class housing project adapted a percentage of their houses with a social design so that it could be affordable by the people of the barriada. This way, the private investment won an ally and avoided a possible invasion problem in our terrain.

A new airport city development for Lima

A new airport city development for Lima The connection of the airport with the future metro line requires a renewal of the Urban Development Plan to meet the objectives of the metropolitan development. The study proposes to change the current logistical and industrial land use, that surrounds the airport, to develop a new airport city in order to provide a greater competitiveness to Jorge Chavez Airport . To do this, an analysis of the offer of commercial, financial and hotel urban spaces was made in 6 airport zones around the globe. As a result, we arrived at a local deficit which served as a starting point to propose an architectural program to be implemented progressively in the available industrial plots.

A new barrio for Curundu

A new barrio for Curundu Curundu is an industrial neighborhood that was invaded by informal settlements in the early eighties. It’s blank walls, the pollution and the lack of job opportunities has made Curundu one of the most violent and stigmatized zones in Panama. Moreover, it’s isolation is a result of the two big highways that surrounds it. The essence of the project is to regenerate Curundu by establishing a recycling culture that exploits its anthropic and natural resources. Recycling the garbage inside and outside the neighborhood will create 10 job opportunities besides cleaning the environment. Finally the industrial structures will be recycled to promote a progressively affordable housing program that will take advantage of the heavy rain to cut off expenses in terms of water consumption.
