We were asked to carry out a project with the freedom to choose between three pieces of land. Among the pieces of land there was a parking lot for a funeral chapels; the Music Park, which pays homage to great musicians and influential compos-
ers in the city and also there was a wasteland. The three lands are in the center of Monterrey, which has a high historical value, and most of the people living there are seniors. In order to determine the architectural program we went to the field
to actually see what were the conditions of it. In our visits we interviewed people from the town, and they told us what it meant to them the Music Park.

Contrary to the information found on the internet, the neighbors shared with us that formerly in the afternoon with the help of a horn they put music to commemorate the Music Park and in this way the park became a very important symbol in their lives. Finally, our concept attempts to rescue the spirit of the place, reminding the people the true meaning of the park. So, our building becomes a “horn� so that music can reach the park and remind people the essence of the park.

We were requested to carry out a Museum of Sculpture, located within one of the busiest areas of the municipality of San Pedro Garza Garcia. Before designing the museum, I wanted to understand which
qualities the museum should have, so that it could fulfill its purpose. After interviewing experts in the matter, I came to realize that the space should served as a place where you can appreciate the art and not visualy compete against the
sculptures. This led me to investigate the theory of phenomenology and thus apply this philosophy in the museum.

Lobby and services area Transition area “light galerry”. Interaction with the garden
LOBY AND SERVICES The interioir areas are structured as a single volume inside the big volume.
TRANSITION AREA. This sidewalk prepares the user’s eye with little light to cause them an impact when they arrive to the gallery.
GALLERIES The galeries permit the entrance of zenithal lighting.
CIRCULATION The circulation is the conjugation of the diffrent volumes with their specific sensations.

Only 3 out of 10 companies in Mexico have the ideal conditions to work together, because of the high levels of stress within the workspaces occasioned mainly by “sick buildings”. To counter these statistics, I proposed a design attached to four different items proposed by Daniel Stokols who is an (environmental psychologist )at the UC. 1. The physical layout of the im mediate work area: • existence of windows, especially if you have views of green spaces. 2. The environmental characteristics of the work area: • Physical aspects such as lighting, air quality, noise levels and social density. 3. Physical organization of buildings that give place to a given workplace: • Shared public spaces, integrity of the vertical cores with horizontal circulations. 4. External services and urban characteristics of the installations • The urban layout of the building.

STRUCTURE The structure functions as a steel frame.
SUN SHADING The position of the traslucid glass variates acording to the facade and sun insidence.

I Firmly believe in the influence of architecture on human beings due to the fact that spaces have the power to determine our behavior to a certain point due to environmental psychology, and it’s for this same reason that I consider architecture as one of the major disciplines in our society.

This park was aimed exclusively at students from different universities in the metropolitan area of Monterrey. During the ceremony, which was attended by the mayor and all of the participants, I had the opportunity to give a speech on the importance of public space.
design was to optimize financial resources, since there was a limited budget. The authorities gave us a list of needs that the neighbors had given them.

The reques for the class was design a furniture piece with two diffrent materials and after that build it in the diffrent workshops of the CRGS. I choose the metal for the structure , because of his structural characteristics that allow me to do more with less. On the other side, I choose the fabric to be confortable for the user and be in armony with the surronding.
