My name is Francisco Javier Muniz Ituarte, and I am an architecture student deeply passionate about constructing models. My interest lies in investigating and analyzing contemporary global issues through the creation of mixed-media interactive models. This is a diverse array of exercises, explorations, analyses, questions, and projects conducted through constructing mixed-media handmade models. Each model was meticulously crafted, employing varied methods of construction and materials. This approach endowed the models with distinctive characteristics, making them immersive experiences and invaluable learning tools. From in-depth sound analysis to the development of innovative cooling devices, these models required different levels of creativity and ingenuity. They served as platforms for experimentation and discovery.
