ZAZIL-HÁ

Bacalar, Quintana Roo, México

Mixed use complex

7° semester, 2021

MArq. Eduardo Reims Hernandez

Arq. Rodolfo Unda Cortés

Zazil-Há is a mixed-use complex located in Bacalar, using MATBuilding as the base for the project. The objective of the intervention is to create a rest and cultural space, where the users are the ones who decide which activities will be carried out within the project.

The complex is planted in a respectful way, through an architecture that adapts and shapes the needs of the area, working with the natural environment, respecting the landscape and adapting to its orography in the most efficient way.

STRUCTURAL CRITERIA

The construction process of this project consists of a foundation of isolated footings cast in place with columns and beams of reinforced concrete of 30x30cm and 30x40cm respectively.

The mezzanine slab system will be a joist and vault to lighten the weight of the structure, the unit cover will be easily replaceable in case of natural disasters, so we will use a cedar structural frame on which a bamboo deck system.

ESTRATEGIA BIÓCLIMATICA sección de estrategia bióclimatica

Este proyecto cumple con distintas funciones bioclimaticas que brindan al usuario un espacio confortable y que a su vez reduce la huella de contaminación hacia el medio ambiente, usando como métodos pasivos el enfriamento por tuneles de aire, humedales, huertos y abundante vegetacion que generan un microclima en la unidad. El agua pluvial es recolectada por medio de canales que la dirigen hacia los huertos y humedales asi como al biodigestor que permite su utilizacion en los sanitarios. La cubierta propuesta en este proyecto cumple con funciones pluviales asi como energeticas debido a los paneles solares que colectan la energia solar para alimentar la electricidad necesaria.

TEC WITHIN THE CITY

Toluca, Estado de México, México

Collective housing

4° semester, 2020

MArq. David Alejandro Ortega Martínez

MArq. Juan Pablo Rodriguez Méndez

The project raises the possibility of a new neighborhood within the Estación Alameda project in the northern area of the Tecnológico de Monterrey, Toluca campus.

This new neighborhood aims to propose ideas about life in the city of Toluca in the 21st century, using concepts of density, mixed uses and collective space, where living is considered as all those activities that human beings carry out from the domestic and their relationship with the public realm.

GROUND FLOOR

The building is inserted in a respectful way, through a permeable ground floor that allows a direct relationship with the public space.

FIRST FLOOR

The first level is designed for groups of 2 to 3 people, with a community area in the main access promoting meetings between users.

SECOND FLOOR

The second level has the same objective as the lower floor with a double height in the community space.

THIRD FLOOR

The third level is designed exclusively for students, where services such as dining room and laundry are shared among all users.

ROOF

The last floor seeks to make the roof habitable through a terrace covered by a pergola allowing the inhabitants to enjoy the space.

Mixed used building

6° semestre, 2021

MArq. Belén Alcocer Fernández

The challenge of this project was to design a space where elderly people can live, and at the same time create a space that promotes coexistence between the elderly and the young.

One of the objectives of the project is to take advantage of the knowledge of the elderly, to inspire young people and create a positive impact.

The complex is based on a simple question “why did people stop enjoying the city?” Most citizens believe that living in an emotionless environment is normal, and the area that was intervened is no exception. This is why it was thought “what if we could create a new milestone by returning to the city these emotions and the desire to explore it?”

Taking this into account, it was decided that the best thing would be to create a project that starts from a central core, where users feel attracted from afar, inviting them to discover what is inside the project and rewarding their curiosity through the different atmospheres generated throughout the project.
