This project aims to improve transportation for goods from El Prat de Llobregat to the logistics center, focusing on:
Reducing Energy Consumption
Utilizing Local Resources
Enhancing Interior Comfort
Logistics operations are centralized at the top of the site, while the rear section, featuring green corridors, a new boulevard, and a temporary market, focuses on human-centered elements, including office entrances

Conjunto X
The Mesa X is a revolutionary concept in modularity for public spaces Its cross-shaped concrete design offers unprecedented versatility and structural solidity, allowing configurations from individual tables to custom setups
Made from high-quality concrete, it ensures durability and a modern aesthetic We are excited to collaborate with Escofet to bring Mesa X to market.
We believe it will complement their urban furniture line exceptionally well
The Mesa X is much more than a simple concrete element; it represents a revolutionary concept in modularity and adaptability for public spaces. Designed as a concrete monoblock, its cross-shaped design provides structural solidity and unprecedented versatility
At its core, the Mesa X adapts to the changing needs of users and urban environments It can transform from two individual tables for two people to a configuration for four, and even combine multiple modules to create custom designs. The Mesa X is a versatile, multifunctional tool that integrates harmoniously into any context
Durability and strength are fundamental values of the Mesa X Made of high-quality concrete, it guarantees a long lifespan even in demanding urban environments without sacrificing its elegant modern aesthetic.
We are excited about the possibility of collaborating with Escofet to bring the Mesa X to market We firmly believe that our product will complement their distinguished line of urban furniture in an exceptional way We are willing to adapt to your specific needs and design requirements to ensure a mutually beneficial and fruitful collaboration.
The Mesa Module features a horizontal cross-shaped slab for the tabletop and an extruded cross for leg support It also includes a special section to accommodate an optional parasol at the user's request
The Stool Module follows the same design and construction system as the table However, it features a pivoting leg for added stability when sitting This innovative design ensures comfort and safety for users of all ages
Mini versions of these two modules are created so that smaller users can also enjoy the table and bench The material finishes are reflected in both the structural and non-structural parts, with a rough finish on the inner cross and a smooth concrete finish for the rest
4th year final submision
CCR is a shopping center located on the Ronda de Dalt in Sarrià, Barcelona Currently, this area is very active in the field of education, as it is filled with schools and universities
CCR
However, access to these institutions is quite difficult, with only one bus line servicing the area, and heavy car traffic making the commute slow due to the high volume of people
To address this, the plan is to reorganize public transportation by adding more lines and attracting more people to the upper part of the Ronda, creating a shopping center and a series of additional projects in collaboration with my classmates.
