Building on the Built: The Object-City as an Urban Surface Design Master Thesis in Architecture 2011/2012
Abstract
Object-city’s issue is summarized in an organizational notion that deals with tangible problems regarding its urban context. Its link between form, program and organization brings a good feedback facing nowadays’ demands: land-use efficiency, uncertain conditions in size or shape, spatial flexibility, programmatic complexity and relation to context. The object-city thrives in the activation of multiple cores, its side-by-side aggregation and connection among spaces, positively defining itself as an urban operative. It corroborates the prospect of relational space design, as well as the design of city limits and urban sprawl areas, conveying a direct association to the notion of frontier. This way, it expresses architecture’s ongoing proximity to an urban and landscape dimension and the gradual linkage between structure (building) and infrastructure (context). Brazilian’s brutalist architecture’s legacy widens the range of the question put by means of a vision that straitens the barrier between building and urban design, through the expression of a dense urban surface. In the brutalist’s case, this vision is imprinted on the design of its surfaces, interdependent and antagonic among them: the ground design and the ceiling design. The goals of this investigation concern the analysis of a case study, practiced on an urban fragment located in Alcântara, Lisbon. The potential of this strategy is best confirmed on situations as this: it consists of an urban landscape pointed out by the irregularity of its tissue, caused by the predominance of infrastructure throughout its valley, and the punctuation of big urban voids, which resulted from the industrial recession of the late 20th century. Such study faces the chance to performance as an urban catalyst, opposing the propensity of isolated social tissues in Alcântara, as well as providing a direct path linking the consolidated city to the riverbank, which has long been extinguished.

Lx Factory - Urban Design Alcântara, Lisbon October 2010 - February 2011
context This project was ground for my thesis and it portraits a flexibility of work scales that were imperative given the context in hand, the Alcântara valley, in Lisbon. Firstly, it was essential to work on a macro scale, for this valley constitutes one of the conurbation’s preferential passage corridors. Secondly, it was as important to work on a micro scale, given that the internal urban tissue in Alcântara is multiply dilacerated and isolated by these infrastructural axis. Also, the latent proximity between downtown Alcântara and the Tejo’s riverbanks was considered a great opportunity to the designing of new public space programmes which should, once again, reunite these contexts.
project The project’s nature is thus constantly shifting between architectonic and urban scales and hence the theme of my investigation being the object-city and the notion of the urban surface as an integrated plan which embodies built structures, green spaces or empty spaces - varying from public to private domains. The design comes from the idea of a low and dense structure which is able to reconnect multiple historical tissues. Through a very permeable ground floor, it joins various programmes and serves as mediator between transition spaces and permanence ones. Private spaces would be found on an upper floor, a layer designed through the unfolding of the ground surface, as to favor a sense of one plan alone. The programmatic interrelationship between this project and the Lx Factory (a creative organism which is found next to the project site) is toned-down by a layout that mends an historical tissue and that works as a catalyst for the integration of other social tissues. Three main programmatic focuses standout: housing, work spaces and mobility (the later includes the new Alcântara-Mar railway station).
the project in numbers Total Area - 7.5 ha Construction Area - 29800 m2 Permeable Area - 1.3 ha (permeability 100%) 0.8 ha (permeability 50%) Green Area Percentage - 18% Private Parking Area - 7500 m2 Public Parking Area - 1600 m2 Park&Ride Concession (Docas’ parking) - 900 places

Primary School in Port-Marianne, Montpellier March - May 2009
context A primary school set in the outskirts of Montpellier, set near the riverbanks of the city’s main river, the Lez. The new riverside quartier of Port-Marianne consists in an expression of urban sprawling it encloses one of the first wooded areas of the surrounding landscape in southwest Montpellier.
project The new school is thus born into two contexts: a natural context - from the river and the rural landscape - and a built context - from the quartier and the urban footprint. The project was set on the dichotomy between the natural and the artificial. The wide open space of the playground enhanced by the proximity to the waterfront and complemented by the transparency of the great common areas facade’s - the cafeteria, the gymnasium, the library - generates, at this ground level, a feeling of being one with nature.
Whereas the classroom’s dimension antagonizes this horizontality, evolving independently and vertically as to find its place among the city’s skyline. It symbolizes the need for individuality in other aspect of the learning process. The design assumes an hybrid identity, in the sense that education is both the result of an extrovert action and an introvert one.

context This project faces an urban tissue renovation strategy in a context strongly marked by the notion of frontier, where infrastructural joints coexist with the rural landscape of the Rieucolon (viniculture). Thus two guidelines were taken in consideration: The vector linking an urban footprint and the Rieucolon, which raised the question: What should be the nature of what is at the entrance of a city but also at its end? And the second vector being: How to recreate an urban coherence on a site set amongst two independently thought ZACs (Ovalie and Grisette)?
project The project evolves around a built axis, that consists in a megastructure to which we called the programmatic plinth, for it embodies various public spaces and facilities as well as it organizes the housing units adjacently, these reconnecting the neighborhoods beyond (Ovalie and Grisette). In contrast to the transportation flux axes, the programmatic plinth describes a unique gesture in the transition between city and rural landscape, as it casts a last belvedere over the Rieucolon.
