BIBLIOTEQUE BAHIA DE CARAQUEZ This project emerges from the necessity of a new building for the people of Bahía de Caráquez, due to the destruction caused by the 6.0 (Richter scale) earthquake that struck the coast of Ecuador. The main objective is to motivate the community in the aftermath of this terrible natural disaster, giving them a safe place of knowledge and entertainment. An additional aim was to provide a space of integration and recreation involving the environment and the cultural aspects of the people. The concept of the project focuses on the relationship between spaces and the boundaries created between them. The zoning diagram informs the arrangement and flow of areas in the theatre. The distribution gives the user a more fluid experience, connecting the outdoors with the indoors.

KITA KROEPELIN The town of Kroepelin requires a redevelopment plan for its school campus. The project focuses on designing the master plan to be developed in phases and the detailed architectural design of the Kita building. The design needs to consider existing buildings and integrate them harmoniously. The building has to respond to modern standards for the sustainable conditions of education facilities and allow for the possibility of expansion.

03. A tale through transitions
MIXED USE BERLIN BUILDING This project uses Berlin strategies as a guideline: 1. Dynamism and adaptability: An open and dynamic ground floor layout created by internal pathways connecting different quarter programs and inspiring meeting points. Internal ground floor pathways to connect the different programs of the quarter. 2. Mixed-use: The building will work with different programs according to each floor, leaving the upper floors for housing, the first floor as offices and co-working spaces, and the ground floor as a market store. 3. Entrepreneur creativity and culture: The open space will allow different activities to promote the culture, the users’ imagination, and specific areas to encourage entrepreneurship.
Portfolio 2022 - Academic project
4. Green buffer: As one of the main strategies along the quarter, there will be a public green space that will work as a buffer between the building and the railway tracks.
The green buffer creates the boundary for the public space separating it from the railway tracks.
Linear public space: Lanes for bikes and pedestrians. Integrating vegetation. Enhancing neighbors to use the different amenities of the quarter.
Internal paths to connect the different programs of the quarter.

04. A space merge with nature
FOREST SCHOOL
Portfolio 2022 - Academic project
The forest school is a pilot project in Olón, Ecuador, promoting an alternative education system involving nature. The project aims for a holistic design that can enhance the community identity, the building circularity, and a system that responds to an adaptable program. The data was collected through interviews, observation, surveys, and an existing database to understand better the place, the community, and the strategies implemented. The result is the development of a pilot project that advocates minimizing the impact on the natural environment through carefully understanding the context’s qualities and needs, promoting children to learn from nature. The discussion relies on how sustainable a building could be while creating dynamic and exciting spaces for the students and adaptable spaces so the whole community can be involved encouraging a sense of belonging.

We considered that the bedroom configurations for the athletes need more space for all the delegates so, we use the entire 3.5x7m unit for them.
The bedrooms could fit in half the area of the entire unit, allowing the people to have more bedrooms or a different use such as a stair with a home garden.

06. The weaving tradition
Team: Janice Lobo, Maria Antonia
Portfolio 2022 - Competition
THE WOVEN HOUSE “HUT” ‘‘HUT’’ recognizes Senegalese women as the pillars of their community, the epitome of strength and resilience, and essential contributors to build a healthy, strong, and equal society. The design proposes a safe, playful, and flexible space that invites dialogue and empowers women. The traditional hut has been taken as a source of inspiration and as a celebration of vernacular architecture. At the same time, the ‘Hut’ provides a sense of belonging and inspires the change towards an equal community to begin at home. In this way, the project encourages women of all ages to participate. ‘‘HUT’’ walls have been designed with different levels of transparency. From private to public, from solid to open. The management office is characterized by its solid clay brick walls with few openings that provide plenty of light and ventilation. The flexible space, where workshops and education seminars will be held, distinguishes from the other spaces by the use of semi-open brick walls. The dialogue space shares walls with the other spaces and opens up to the tree, using nature as its own wall. The three spaces are divided by flexible panels that can be removed or rotated to create one big space and/or adapt to other programs. The project honors the weaving techniques from Senegal and promotes the use of recycled plastic to weave these flexible panels, bringing color, joy, harmony, and environmental consciousness to the house. The woven panels work as a means of expression, allowing everyone to participate in its assembly; weaving together not only panels but a strong and equal community.

PANNONIA Guayaquil, Ecuador In Guayaquil, the specialty coffee industry is growing, with the city’s demand for specialty coffee shops. The interior design of this project focuses on bread as well as coffee. The main area of the coffee shop is the brew bar which holds the grinders, the coffee machines, the v60, and every necessary equipment for a barista to be comfortable. It also displays the different types of bread that the owners will offer. The design focuses on creating a pleasant and comfortable space for people to work, read, and gather with friends while enabling a takeaway dynamic. It allows artists to turn the area into an exhibit for artists to showcase their art.
