FLORIDA INTTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY DESIGN WORK 2006.2008 | MANUEL L DORTICOS





My purpose as a designer is not only to contribute to the advances and innovations in architectural intervention, but to insure these be in the best interests of our most valued and dependent client, the environment, and the renovation and additions made to its site, our planet. To design structures and communities that establish new and enduring standards of economic, ecological, and social effectiveness. To explore and execute a balance between nature and culture creatively, practicing sustainable approaches that go beyond the basic considerations of materials and methods. Reflecting my conviction that all sustainability is local, I strive to understand the contextual site, critically analyzing each element that renders visible the interconnected complexities of a place; its water, its natural flows of energy, its indigenous materials, and the health and wellbeing of its inhabitants. Sustainability plays an essential role in everything we do. It is my personal endevour to develop solutions that enhance quality of life for peoples and contribute to the long-term preservation of our planet. It is the refined knowledge and expertise of such principles that I seek in your prestigious graduate program.

01 PARTY-WALL HOUSING

MODULARITY + GENERATIVE CIRCULATION | MIAMI BEACH | FL PROFESSOR | ERICA NELLES The party wall house represents a unique form of urban living. Sandwiched between hermetic adjacent walls these homes rely on organizations that take advantage of the open ends of the site: the front the back and the sky. Within the party wall house, one can observe manipulations of plan and section that reveal an attention to programmatic distributions that liberate space from its confines. In addition, inherent in the plans ofthese homes are issues of repeatability: these homes can stack against one another without diminishing any internal spatial organiz.ations. As urban dwellings, close adjacencies are of interest to me.

02 SPACES OF IDEOLOGY

URBAN CATALYST [MUSEUM + ADD-UP PROGRAM] on BISCAYNE BOULEVARD PROFESSOR | ARMANDO MONTILLA The production of space (Lefrebvre) is a result of overlapping social, economical, and psychological, factors, all leading to the accumulation of strata, which simultaneously translates into an a generator of urbanity and architectural space within the context of the contemporary city. We here called to the idea of an Ideology of space as a point of departure to the creation of architectural space bearing an intrinsic relationship with Cityspace: The resulting production of the built and non-built environment plus the spatial relation between them (1) As part of this process, the definition of publicness in the space of the city is also redefined, following historical referential frames now filtered through globalization processes and means of technology today. The purpose of the Studio exercise is that of establishing an ideology of space creation, which will then generate the given architecture as a container and/or a vehicle of cultural and social production, ultimately acting as a catalyst to the creation of urban identity in a section of the city. During the course of the Studio specific theories/authors dwelling on the production of contemporary ideology impacting urban and architectural space will be chosen then analyzed, followed by a critical debate of cultural and social production in the city today, which will lead to a unique and individual exhibiting (Museum) Letmotiv for each of the projects developed on the part of each student. The interaction of the architectural program of cultural production with an antagonistic program of social production is desired, in order to complete a system responding to the creation of an architecture being generated under the frame of a space ideology in the present context of hyper-capitalism.

03 URBAN CORRIDOR

FLAGLER ST AS PROGRAMMATIC CORRIDOR | MIAMI | FL PROFESSOR | NICKOLAY NEDEV Flagler Street serves as the main East-West axis in the City of Miami. While Flagler is varied in its section and programmatic make-up, like most American streets, it lacks identity. The objective of the design is to analyze the urban corridor, identify potential problematic areas, and propose architectural interventions at various scales. The culmination of diagraming propsed site interventions over existing conditions should result in the comprehensive project.
