Excavating the cliff Can Lis, the well-known home of Jorn Utzon in Mallorca, is located on the edge of a cliff. This location was key for the design of the original piece, and it is also intended to be a starting point for the proposed extension. The operation consists of introducing a small assembly hall, a dwelling for temporary interns and a pier as an extension of the original villa. The project is based in excavating the cliff from the interior, minimizing the visual impact while dialoguing with the language of the house on top. To develop it, a series of plaster models were carried out studying the variability of the flares and openings in relation to light and view.

Choosing reference points is require, so their disposal relates to the movement capacity and the preservation of the elements which need a specific surface like the bed or the table.

(Housing, form study)

Form finding on site The main purpose of the exercise is the development of an architecture of the uncanny, of the amazing but sinister. The proposed site is located in the center of Aarhus, Denmark, and the intervention had to fill up a gap in a preexisting block. A form finding procedure is proposed and followed during the design process. The site provides a series of shapes and contours that conform a catalogue from which to choose to accomodate the housing program.

Shapes examples

The generation of spaces arises from the aligned layout of different sections and the geometric evolution between them to generate tubular pieces of extensive formal character. In this image the second bank of elements is shown, which in this case are the possible procedures that can govern the combination of the different sections. We see as well that decisions like the distance between them, the angle, the relative size or the perpendicular displacements to the axis that unites them, are clear processes of spatial definition.

This analysis leads to a first conceptual model where the intentions of the project are already shown, both spatially and volumetrically and contextually. In this of photographs on the left we see how a classic diffe- series volume encloses a series of formal tubular spaces.

In this second series on the right, five examples of the raised spaces are analyzed, where an evolution of the shapes of the sections can be seen to generate volumetric and light and shadow games. These two series of images will be the starting point for the development of the project.

The results of this process were a series of rent models, renders, volume analysis and on site tests exploring the catalogue and its potential in creating 37 spaces. The main focus was to generate surfaces both inside and outside of these structures to remove the38 border between space and furniture, considering both as a whole.

Critical Written Reflection

From theory to practice Places for Thinking is an essay that translates the theoretical subject of seeked loneliness and personal isolation into architecture, whilst engaging with the physical landscape of Midtjylland, Denmark. Bringing together theoretical reflections and practical research and experimentation has contributed to the creation of an initial approach to what a place for thinking can be. It is the struggle to transgress the theory that has powered this project in the direction of experiencing spaces with a new perspective, based in what can induce meditation and reflection.

Decaying infrastructure and rurality

The site

The task proposed for this project consisted of studying the particularities generated by the train track connecting Aarhus and Struer. The drop in the number of passengers in recent decades and the progressive depopulation of many of the towns through which the train passes was leading to the continuous closure of the stations, accelerating this process even more. Thus, the creation of a new point of interest is proposed to motivate the use of this infrastructure, helping to reverse the gradual abandonment.

The proposed site, located North from Flyndersø lake, deals with a very specific context of remoteness as opposed to the built Danish countryside. The exact location provides a complex natural surrounding where the forest and the meadow interrupt between each other at the same time as the ground flows up and down creating a small valley of up to ten meters from the train tracks. This landscape is crucial to understand both the program proposed as well as the architecture itself.

Lanscape study device - Framing the view

Human Scale - Solitude The state of solitude needs to be achieved throught the physical remoteness but also as a mental experience. Being far away refers to counting kilometers or finding a place that is difficult to reach, but it can also envolve an action or a process that abstracts ourselves from reality. That is the point of the program, where the skills and operations of an ornithologist and those of a mushroom collector allow them to have moments of silence and loneliness.

Typology Scale - The Corner The architecture is divided into three elements: the train stop, the main hub and two types of cabins spread over the area. According to philosopher Gaston Bachelard â&#x20AC;&#x153;the corner is the sure place (...) and is a symbol of solitude for the imaginationâ&#x20AC;?. This claim articulates all the spaces in the search of creating moments of memory and self-reclution through architecture..

The main hub

10 The top floor encloses the program related to the ornithologist and its structure wants to create different stages and frames of the landscape. Arriving from the North direction, the main hub contains areas for the exhibit of collections and a library with working and reading spaces. It is surrounded with terraces for outside activities that together with the different heights of the ceiling introduce the natural light deep into the building.

The lightness of this floor is achieved with the use of a thin wood structure that acts as a piece of furniture, covers spaces and evolves to interact with the users.

11 The lower floor contains the spaces for the mushroom collector, mainly defined by a tasting restaurant and a small farm for unseasonal mushroom growth. The conection with the upper floor consist of a big staircase that also works as a lecture room, and with the hunging wood stairs to the side. The footprint is smaller than the top floor creating a path to its side that does not block the valley where the whole structure is placed. This piece is partially excavated into the hills allowing the contact with the soil and it is built with rammed earth that encourages textures and light treatment.

Design realization

(Wood structure)

The following semester after the exchange in Aarhus, I was required to choose a project to develop an entire design realization to the maximum level of detail. I chose the project “Places for Thinking” and it needed a radical increase in the number of floors and complexity to achieve the requirements. The whole structure was designed including water, electricity and air systems, façades, foundations, interiors, fire safety systems, etc. The task was completed with great success.

Si el espacio público ha sido ocupado por el sector empresarial, ¿no deberían los agentes que conforman el primero invadir el espacio privado? Los elementos definitorios de las plazas, las calles, las avenidas se han visto alterados y modificados para la conformación de un nuevo carácter del espacio público. Si bien antes una plaza se podía describir como un plano horizontal rodeado de una línea de fachadas características y una serie de elementos puntuales que cubrían necesidades cotidianas, ahora se ha convertido en un mero escaparate del sector empresarial y de los medios de producción, que han ocupado dichas fachadas y el propio suelo con propaganda y bienes inherentes al consumismo. A su vez, han convertido las actividades de carácter artístico y de expresión de los barrios subyacentes en un mero espectáculo turístico, relegando su posición a las esquinas y laterales del escenario público en lugar de establecerse en su punto central, ahora ocupado

por el sector terciario de consumo. Como reacción a esta situación se debería considerar válida la ocupación de espacios privados para dotar nuevamente de dignidad a estas formas de expresión cultural propias de las calles y las plazas. Esta es sin duda la posición política adoptada para la configuración del proyecto donde se entenderá que la sucesión de elementos longitudinales (calles) y ensanchamientos de estos (plazas) se capaces de conformar el escenario de la cultura urbana. De igual manera, la enorme diversidad espacial y técnica cubrirá un gran espectro de tipologías de expresión artística.

content is opened to the outside, generating a large square in an upward spiral as an extension of the outdoor public space in response to a commodified area of tourists and big shopping malls.

The proposal seeks to redefine the cultural space adapting it to the 21st century society. To achieve this, a multitude of versatile stage spaces are grouped to replace the large traditional stage box. Consequently, different types of shows will coexist simultaneously, attracting an essentially diverse audience. Besides, the Concept hand drawing

The section The thinking process for the development of this concept is based on the study of the section as a crucial part of the project. A study of masses and voids, construction systems, compatibility of spaces, relations of volumes, etc is carried out. The conclusion leads to proposing a perimeter holding system that allows the release of the ground floor to create the access plaza while locating the scenic pieces right on top at different heights.

Performative installation

(Movement, light)

Art is political The artist is not just another individual agent, his interaction with the world that surrounds him extends beyond immediate impact. The artist becomes a stress inducing agent, and through his work expresses his concrete positioning or diffuse. It generates an impact on the observer, so the independence of the creator will determine the critical or submissive nature of his production. This installation deals with aspects like the point of view of the spectator, his position whether it is dynamic or static and the alteration provoked by the interaction between the visitor and the piece. The controlled freedom is the essence of the intervention.

Neuroarchitecture

Neuroscience as a project tool

Course: 10th Semester - 2020 (ETSAM) Tutoring: Enrique ColomĂŠs MontaĂąĂŠs - enrique.colomes@upm.es Final Degree Thesis (TFG)

Abstract We know that the environment is decisive in cognitive development and directly affects our nervous system and our behavior patterns throughout life, therefore, how should an architecture that considers our neural anatomy be? Neuroarchitecture is emerging as a new discipline that promotes a design essentially defined by advances in neuroscience, but that does not abandon the cultural and symbolic context of architectural discussion. In this work, it is described as a tool to overcome the sensory architecture of the 20th century and thus respond to a utilitarian functionalism that would not take the user into account in its sensory component. For this, a multitude of neuroscientific studies are analyzed, developing a theoretical and application matrix that would allow the architect to make decisions that stimulate the occupants from scientific rigor. Neuroarchitecture must propose a comprehensive and extensive model that allows for the improvement of the sensory and therefore vital conditions of all human beings based on the knowledge of our anatomy without losing the inherent cultural reference to all societies.

Architecture Design

(Production, rurality, housing, landscape,...)

Rurality: a model for the rural The objective of the “Master Habilitante” in architecture in Spain aims to be a space where to demonstrate the technical and design skills acquired during the Bachelor’s program to obtain the Qualifying degree of Architect. In this course, which will end in June 2021, the study of rural dynamics derived from depopulation, the deterioration of natural resources or aging, among others, is proposed. This project seeks to reinterpret the 19th century Phalanstery as a latent model in rural areas where production, co-living and cultural traits intersect,

in contrast to the sectorization of urban activities. In addition, it intends to create new economic and cultural opportunities in the so-called “emptied Spain” to prevent it from falling into neglect.

Total mix of uses, the rural model The project starts from the recharge of the bullring as a singular element of the town as well as a cultural center of the region. In addition, an extension grows towards the river to house a program of diverse uses grouped in a natural fiber research center, cultural spaces, temporary and recreational uses and also production facilities. This multiplicity of uses seeks to value the growth model typical of the rural, through a dense plot of interactions building the town as a whole.

The simulated ecosystems machine The implantation of a plant fiber research center would have the aim of replacing the current agricultural model with one with a higher added value and with a lower environmental impact on aquifers. This would include laboratories and workshops, but also an experimental program with three defined zones: greenhouses controlling both environmental conditions and the topography itself, productive greenhouses and mobile roofs. These facilities intersect with public uses, turning them into a facility.

The program The bullring is expanded to enclose a series of living units on top and around it while increasing the space for cultural events at the bottom. The main longer building will include the production and the research facilities closer to the ground and the greenhouses, while the cultural program is displayed at the top. All the facilities and machines are placed in between to free the roof enabling it to be transparent.
