Kjære, Jeg heter Maria Makri, og er nyutdannet fra det Polytekniske Universitetet i Valencia. Gjennom studieårene har jeg utforsket mange forskjellige stilarter, men enkelheten og skjønnheten i norsk arkitektur bragte meg gang på gang til Norge. Spesielt interessant fant jeg den nøye studerte forbindelsen mellom landskap og rom, og ønsket om å forfølge denne interessen motiverte meg til å flytte til Norge i 2016. To runder med Erasmus i Norge har gitt meg en verdifull introduksjon til norsk arkitektur, og gitt meg innsikt i en annen tilnærming til arkitekturen enn tiden ved UPV. At first, I studied at NMBU university natural approaches to planning and a year after at AHO I gained knowledge on timber structures and sustainable approaches in climate conditions. To top it off, I used all of the gained knowledge, together with the guidance of specifically trained professors in the field, to yield a well constructed master diploma project based in an upcoming neighborhood in Oslo; Kabelgata, and providing a counter proposition, in order to re-use and expand upon the existing structures, treating aspects from an urban scale down to the detail of the structural elements. In the years I have spent in Norway, I gained experience in working as an intern/ project leader at Don Lawrence firm, where I have been working closely with the leader and the clients. The projects we have created required a broad list of skills, working with urban design, road design, residential projects of small and big scale as well as some more artistic projects. In all the projects I have been in close contact with Norwegian regulations, clients and advisor personnel finding it possible to communicate in English. Although, due to my fascination to the country and the language, I am in the process of taking my Norwegian language certificate. Med venlig hilsen, Maria Makri

projects from my time as an architecture student. Each project holds different aspects but all have a common denominator, the importance of the location. The driving approach of my projects has been the historical context and urban morphology of each space. In the past years a growing interest in the connection between landscape and sustainability drove me to Norway in 2016. From that point onwards I have been engaging with timber architecture and sustainable solutions, driven to its fullest in my diploma project.

VISITING NORWAY
Finding myself in this country was a kind of surprise. having beeing used to warm climates and historic city centres, it was making it difficult to relate to such extreme situations. Surprisingly one of the things I first loved about Norway was the tendancy of people to hide away during the weekends, which is completely understandable having in mind the breathtaking landscapes that the city offers. Through some research, I also found out that this habit goes back a few decades to when families where living isolated in a single farmhouse, with no near neighbours. This type of living, in the years, developed an urban typology that can only be found in Scandinavian countries.
Main farmhouse
Klyngetunet Throughout the country one can encounter the incredibly clever tradition of clustering. These clusters of farmhouses have evolved through the acient years in Norway , involving the expansion of one family farmhouse into many small ones forming a small neighbourhood or village. They are mainly arranged in an irregural manner to each other, making it difficult to find a pattern.

Oslo is one of the fastest growing cities in Europe. In need of growth, a heavily built existing industrial area is proposed as a key development area in response to Oslo’s anticipated growth. Oslo has limited expansion opportunities, both due to its topography and the protected forests around the city The maintenance of the industrial character of the area will be reflected upon in order to promote a development that uses history as a foundation to create new opportunities and prevent its destruction.

At the same time, it is intended on the one hand to respect the current urban development paradigm, proposing buildings for residential and recreational purposes, and on the other to question whether production can once again become an integral and natural part of the urban functions that surround us on a daily basis.

VALE DE MOSES YOGA HOUSE ON A CLIFF
YOGA HOUSE ON A CLIFF Val de Moses
As if it were part of the Ville, the project is placed to form part of the existing structures and merge with the forest that surrounds it. Between the trees one can perceive the roof plane standing elegantly in the air. The shape, abstracted from the traditional roofs of rural housing in the interior of Portugal, intents to merge with the slopes that surround it and pass unnoticed by visitors, who descend the path under which the various rooms of the yoga house are arranged. Imitating the treetop, this roof covers the network of interior walls which guide the user along a path between different relationships with nature and light. Consecutive rooms of changing ambiance , lead the user through a series of emotions. From the walk towards the yoga house between the trees and the wilderness of the forest; through the hall, where the lights, sound and water of the surrounding nature are accentuated; to opening up again towards the forest in the yoga room, as if the whole scenery was part of the room and the activities taking place inside.

Interior oak wood cladding and black slate with rugged finish. 08. Rain water drain with gravel finish and connected to underground water tank. 09. Water deposit.
The use of a suspended floor is chosen to hold the project higher above the ground and minimize the footprint on the ground, while at the same time, the green roof compensates for the space taken up by the building by giving it back to the environment. The inverted butterfly roof allows, in addition to the appropriate orientation of the solar panels, the collection and storage of water for filtering, storage and later use in the different needs of the yoga house. Sustainable elements have been implemented in order to correctly deal with the sanitary system without the need of heavy piping.

78 º NORTH Autosustainable co-housing in the Arctic
Longyearbyen is located at 78º latitude, at an exceptional location near the sea-front, which looks towards Adventfjorden and the arctic mountains (Moskushamn). People of Longyearbyen will eventually need more housing as some of the old houses located in avalanche areas are to be torn down. It is challenging to propose new architectural solutions in the Arctic as they challenge not only the geophysical conditions but also they disturb the biodiversity and the natural environment. Finding a solution that questions the real need of humans to inhabit such a destination has been tough. NORWAY .2, Svalbard . 78º North

SAMONG HAVEN EO RESORT IN BALI Landscape and Buildings development
The Samong Eco-resort in Bali was a fun and challanging project, as we had design everything from scratch. Given the location, we proposed natural and eco-friendly solutions to enhance the connection to space and to the local spirit. We used local materials such as wood, rammed earth and stone. The landscape plan was the first step taken proposing five alternative villa types and a restaurant. As we wanted to use the local handymans as much as possible, we proposed new ways of constructing the road system.

APOLLO HYTTA Building development
The Apollo hytta is a fun little project that we designed. Due to the small scale we had some more freedom with the design prosess and it was possible to solve more constructive details. It is a project understood as a single story building, but due to the steep terrain it was possible to give it one higher level.

TOMANSBOLIG I ASKER Site and building development in Asker
Ongoing project. The challenge was to build on a steep terrain following or reqiorments and restrictions of the area. Through this process we had to deal with the kommune administration both for the building application and for the new road that had to be built.
HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IN NES Site and building development in Nes
Ongoing project. We were asked by the client to create a housing development building in the maximum BYA possible. So we came up with three alternative units that create unique conditions for every user. In this project we also had to create a private access road and work with all the specifications of the area.
