WATER STADIUM 4th year Sustainable stadium extension of the 2038 Grimshaw proposal for Bath.
River water Processed river water Grey water White water
The proximity to the river and the accumulation of energy at this point of its cycle offered the potential of exploring the canal system typology for an energetically self sufficient stadium. The process of filtration defines a journey through the building. The activity calender of the workshop spaces is therefore correlated with the water quality at that specific points of the site.

Laboratory for social housing design studio taught by Uriel Fogué and Victor Navarro. The project proposes housing units that have water purification systems as their innovative technologies.
Technological proposal The productive city proposed is focused on ecological waste water treatment, that uses local biodiversity and natural processes to create a mechanically simple but complex system capable to filtering contaminated grey water through a “productive floor slab”.

SHARING MADRID 3rd year Erasmus Building block for a shared community
The project proposes a prefabricated building method to democratise the construction process in order to achieve a social change both on the typical construction industry and the proposal of an alternative life style focused on owning the bare necessary and sharing spaces.

THE BAND
A home is a home is a home! House for Björk, Matthew Barney and their daughter. This project proposes a reconfigurable BAND that connects/separates the 3 while enabling them to constantly redesign their domestic life ! The band is a composition of folding and wrapping elements that can be combined and assembled as wished by its user giving them the freedom and control over the space they want to inhabit.

AA VISITING SCHOOL MADRID Extra-Curricular Workshop Pipe Architecture Networked for Discrete Assembly
As part of the AA visiting school in Madrid on computational design we made prototype of a pavilion assembled with one piece of two sizes S and L in order to make a whole. The pieces were made from glass fiber rods we bent to our design. We made a first piece by hand and then modelled it on Rhinoceros and Grasshopper to come up with the overall pavilion design and assembly.
