C_MX marmol de salcido ADPPRENTICE 2020 Advanced Architectural Design Praxis Program Host Studio: LEAP, Mexico. 2020 The Adpprentice program took place in the city of Guadalajara, Mexico, under the mentoring of the architecture studio LEAP. It consisted in the development of a project for the reconversion of an abandoned cement plant in an Environmental Research Center. In this way, we formulate urban proposals based on analysis of the territory and subsequently made a study of an architectural program.

The project was presented at a video conference on September 30, 2020 to more than 90 people, with the uruguayan architect Julio Gaeta as commentator. In addition, the result will be exhibited at the Venice Biennale of Architecture in 2021.

To put it in context, the project is located in Mármol de Salcido, a town 36km north of the tourist town of Mazatlán, Sinaloa. At the entrance to the Sea of Cortéz, ​​ the village is in a complex territory between important areas of

environmental preservation at national level (ANP Meseta de Cacaxtla), and international (Sitio RAMSAR Playa Tortuguera El Verde Camacho), which are home to a great biodiversity.

Mármol’s origin dates back to 1936 and was founded on the initiative of Mr. Ramón Salcido and Castillo Negrete to explore and industrialize the limestone present in the region. Over time they saw that it would be very feasible and profitable to operate a cement plant there. Therefore, the factory was opened in 1946 and worked very successfully until 1995, when the shareholders saw that it was no longer financially convenient to continue with production. This meant the loss of jobs for more than 400 workers and an uncertain future for the village.

The closure of the cement factory doors left the population of the community without their main source of work, causing a massive migration to Mazatlán and economic difficulties.

Sinaloa, MX.

The area has a strong natural and cultural potential. For this reason, we have chosen to develop a project that respects the protagonism of nature and that investigates new programs that are capable of promoting development for the region and the community, while taking into account the preservation of its history and its original population.

library The library building holds a variety of public. The ground level, where the bookshop is located, is designed to accommodate, mainly, the visiting public of the research center. The other levels, on the other hand, are more private and intended for the researchers in the complex. The building also has a direct connection to the work gallery, and the lower levels of the library, located in the building’s underground floors, open onto patios that allow natural light and ventilation.

ecoturism hotel The ecotourism hotel was designed as a suspended village, where guests can meet and interact. The circulations vary in size, creating spaces for permanence and appreciation of the view. In this building, the empty spaces have the same degree of importance as the built spaces. The circulations allow great fluidity and appreciation of both the sea view and the complex view. The silos are used for vertical circulation and reception, and on the roof there is a restaurant and viewpoint for use by the public.

academic research Paulista Avenue in the cultural context of the city of Sao Paulo Academic Works: cientific research 2018-2019 Paulista Avenue is considered an icon of the city of São Paulo. Since its inauguration, this space of the city has presented singularities that make it stand out as a pole of cultural, social and economic attraction, becoming the stage of the most diverse political and artistic manifestations, sheltering large flow of people. Given its importance and wide scope that generate constant flows, diversity and concentration of uses, its urban qualities are investigated in the sense of collective values, involvement with opposites and cultural exchanges, factors associated with urbanity.

Specifically, the objective of this research is to survey and study the institutional spaces dedicated to the visual arts, the network of art galleries that formed around them, the avenue as a destination and its closing on sundays for cars in favor of pedestrians, analyzing if they actively contribute to the collective life in the city besides providing visibility for the city of São Paulo in

the country and in the world. The methodology used was based on bibliographic research; reading and filing of relevant titles; investigation of journalistic and institutional material; survey of cultural institutions; urban morphology studies and evaluation of the internationalization of artistic production. As a result, it is noted that Paulista Avenue is a destination for various political, social and artistic events, as well as it has a strong influence on the city’s visual arts circuit.

Finally, it is concluded that diversity contributes to the formation of urban qualities that in turn characterize the place. On Paulista Avenue, the presence of MASP (São Paulo Art Museum) and other institutions devoted to the visual arts, along with other uses related to the financial sector, contributed to the formation of its character. This character, however, goes beyond these uses to incorporate various types of political, leisure and cultural manifestations.

Magazine cover by Ingrid Sanches. 2018.

worm Worm Magazine Academic Works: article Architecture Theory. 2018 The W O R M Magazine is the product of a work done by the group for the discipline of Architecture Theory. The text is the result of the discussion about “What is a good architecture?”, which after dialogues and reflections we came to the theme “Minhocão: Visual Culture and Public Space Occupation in São Paulo”.

The article deals with the historical, morphological and identity understanding in the formation of the urban landscape of the João Goulart Viaduct, as well as its current context, taking into account its appropriation by the population as a public space and by street artists as blank canvases.

Thus, we identified the attempt to retake the urban use of this space, as well as the process of resignification of this urban barrier.

In addition, socio-spatial segregation materializes in Minhocão when the upper part has a completely different character and use from the lower part. It is the negation of the resolution of urban problems, and is stamped in the urban works of art present along the viaduct.

Based on the parameters exposed by Mauro Calliari in the book “Espaço Público e Urbanidade em São Paulo”, the viaduct was read in the sense of the quality of this public space. In its publication Calliari exposes some variables that contribute to the qualification of a good public space, witch are meaning, readability, diversity and human scale. Using this methodological basis, we conducted the analysis of the viaduct as a public space.

Along with all the problems surrounding Minhocão, we present the debate about its permanence, demolition or transformation into a park. This way, it is possible to know the opinion of several professionals with different points of view and positions regarding what to do with the viaduct.

To conclude, we made a criticism based on the results obtained by the analysis, where we expressed our opinion about the most appropriate solution to be applied in this space.

metalic structure Art School Academic Projects Materiais e Tecnicas Construtivas. 2018

In this project we seek to explore the metal structure techniques to the maximum, creating an art school.

The pillars have a unique geometry and when combined with the beams create a shape that functions as an arch in the structure, making it efficient and functional.

The castellated beam was chosen, which despite having a greater height, uses less material, because it has spans in its length. In addition, this beam was chosen because we could explore another technique of the same material and create a more interesting aesthetic in the building.

In the upper openings, shutters were designed for air circulation in the school, which also has fixed glass casements, allowing light to come in all directions throughout the day. The teachers room and bathrooms are the only rooms that have wall panels and upper oppenings.

From an unevenness in the building site, an access walkway was created, linked to a ramp that descends 1 meter inside the building, both supported by pillars with the same geometry of those that support the whole structure.

ribeirao do quilombo complex Technical School of Civil Construction and Comunity Center Academic Projects.

Campinas, SP, Brazil. 2018.

The project consists of the integration of the linear park and the population of the neighborhood to the Technical School and the Community Center, in a way that provides attractions for the community to enjoy the public space and to, somehow, enjoy the project area, connecting the daily school life to the neighborhood, attracting students and integrating residents. In this way, the project aims at the preservation and maintenance of diversity, creating spaces that have meaning for the community.

In order to make it possible, in terms of urban planning, we made the link of the proposed bicycle route to the Amarais Highway, connecting the neighborhood with the rest of the city, providing another alternative of mobility and attracting a flow of people in the studied are. In order not to create physical barriers, such as walls and grills, we chose to differentiate private collective areas

from public areas by means of slight unevenness on the ground, and create architectural elements that guide the flow of people. In order to qualify, provide different sensations and attract people, we design several spaces of permanence within the project of the School, the Community Center and along the paths created.

The Community Center integrates with the sidewalk access to the linear park and, internally, the School’s design has a concentrated and streamlined circulation that is centralized in the vertical circulation and radiates horizontally through a catwalk to the different buildings of the second floor. The complex were designed to compartmentalize uses, limitate overcrowding in restricted areas and guide the flow to more attractive places, allowing to be made loads and discharges to their destinations in a more rational way.

streamlined and prefabricated systems Public Healthcare Center Academic Projects: Healthcare Clinic.

2019.

The module was designed according to the optimization of the constructive technique in reinforced mortar (commonly used by the brazilian architect and urbanist João Filgueiras Lima, also known as Lelé) and in the adequacy of the program with the diverse needs that a healthcare clinic demands.

By adopting a minimum stability module of 5.6x5.6 meters that can expand as needed, an independent and self-supporting structure is created for this module.

Pillars, beams, sealing panels, roofing and other parts are designed according to the project’s need, and the conformity of the building site arises from the articulation of these parts in the modules, and then, from the articulation of these modules on the ground.

The inclined roof is formed by 6 or 7 identical pieces that alternate in the direction, creating spaces with ventilation and natural lighting. In situations where it is necessary to have hydraulic piping in a specific part of the project, the central piece is replaced by a water tank.

In this project, as the program is a healthcare clinic, these roof pieces were carefully thought out to provide a clean and ventilated environment.

This rational conformation of the pieces that articulate provide the project with suitability and identity. In addition, it allows the construction process to be fast and respectful to the construction workers, due to the fact that its parts are prefabricated and designed so that they fit together without difficulty.
