GRID
This exercise was the first touch into the space construction process based on a grid and understanding simple operations like addition and subtraction of modules. As well as the relevance of the structure in the act of designing and how this affects the final product. From this point, the relationship between the chosen form and opened parts/closed parts, as well as the materiality, was developed.

REFĂšGIO
The project consists in building a temporary house for a guest university professor, near the UFRJ. The terrain is steep and the theme of studio-home was the important questions of the conceptive process.
2nd
The formal solution was to dig the terrain and build stone walls as a support. The entrance is on the upper floor, together with the suite and the office. Located on the bottom floor are the living room and kitchen. The bottom floor is completely made out of glass, with the exception of a stone wall, introducing the illusion that the upper deck is floating. Because of this design, the view of bay from inside the room is undisturbed. 2016.1 orientadora: Ana Amora local: Ilha do Bom Jesus, Rio de Janeiro

VILLAGE
The aim of this project was to create a village in the neighbourhood of UFRJ, where students and families are living in simple houses and student residences. The main issue of the project was encountering strategies to ensure the privacy of the residents while also providing a sense of community.
2016.2 orientadora: Elizabeth Martins local: FundĂŁo, Rio de Janeiro
13 Three types of houses were necessary, one, two and three bedrooms, to fulfill all demands of neighbourhood. So, I designed a common first floor to all types and added more bedrooms on the second floor. For one and two rooms houses, I created a private terrace. The material choosen were concrete, wood and stone.

STUDENT HOUSING
The target of the project is a simple architecture that spins around social use in general: to bring to a modern rationalist volumetry - building-tape - a public character and social purpose, atypical of the modern movement. While it operates directly to build the student's relationship with the academic community as well as the surroundings’, hitherto disconnected from the environment of a student housing, thus making the building a place for students outside the housing of as much importance as for those who inhabit it
2017.2 partner in crime: Thales Motta orientadora: Adriana SansĂŁo local: Botafogo, Rio de Janeiro
Formally, it parts from the hard rectangular, horizontal and rational volumetry, almost centered in the lot, dividing the rest in two parts: public and semi-public. The building is indented from the sidewalk, creating a large public area with plenty shade. The volume was partially disintegrated in order to create three spaces with a distinct character: the public spaces of common use and free access, semi-public and private, aimed at the internal neighbourship. There are two large openings in the building: an inner courtyard and a semi-buried auditorium; and four other smaller ones, as spaces of internal coexistence, redefining the function of a wall with the aid of the permeability that the absence of physical barriers promote. Internally, the complex is joined by outdoor walkways that connect the two apartment blocks divided by the courtyard, thus making ephemeral but daily visual relations between those who live and those who circulate around Lauro MĂźller Street and the UFRJ campus possible.

In the free spaces, the composition is established through the use of furniture modeled from rubble materials that, metaphorically, came from the break of the 'wall building'. Therefore, what was previously separated now integrates public use. In addition, it counts on public spaces of activities directly integrated to the building and its inhabitants, as the skating rink that goes beyond the boundary created by the building between public and semi-public and the community; a vegetable garden, thought for the use of the residents of the surrounding area. Conditioned integration is clear on one of the rips in the building, located on the family units block. It is a square room with an average floor area of 22.50m² per floor which comprises the four floors of the building and all its slabs are cut out, which causes visual contact between the various parts of the same space. Each level has a different use for different needs. The physical boundaries that bounded its entrance, except for the ground floor, were abdicated; on all other floors this hall penetrates the circulation. Its palette of materials follows the general palette of the building: concrete, glass and white porcelain tiles on the floor. The glass windows that barely embodies the entire walls of the space guarantee a great lighting, the vertical vegetation composes the facades, the wind has free passage coming from the circulation, wich is totally free, passing through the room and leaving through the projecting windows.

EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX
The history of the neighborhood of Ribeira asks for a critical thought beyond the pedagogical issue. The surroundings went through privatizations that limited the experience with the bay and excluded the neighbours of their own place. So, the challenge of our project becomes provoking the constant exchange between building-resident. The elaboration of this particular program consists of a cultural center, a redesign of Praรงa Iaiรก and bus terminal, reactivation of the ferries and the school itself. After all, the school will be the nodal point and focus.

The formal conception starts from a simple block, divided into pedagogical and cultural approaches and developed according to the verified demands: courtyards, library, court and underground facilities, administrative rooms and formal structures on the ground floor and 1st floor. All floors are connected by footbridges that ends on a hall on every middle floor, this one serving to control the access. The site, which previously housed a yard, excavates the bay and makes all of its underground of public use on weekends. The complex also provides all the equipment of an educational institution that the community can use. For the sunlight protection of the classrooms, panels with geometric shapes were designed, which filters the light, allows the passage of wind and offers a playful environment for children. The layout of some rooms is more of an open plan with 'closings' made by shelves with acoustic insulation. Thus allowing a greater visual contact between children, who need external stimuli in their first contacts with the school environment.

SOLAR CLOCK
Developed for the discipline of constructive processes II. The material used for mixing with the concrete was reused from other specimens. The pointer was made with a metal plate.
