Retrofit and extension
Project type: Retrofit traditional barn hostel Studio 2: Sustainable Design Project 2 Professors: Dr Sally Shahzad, Paul Testa Team: Sahil Jaiswal, Sergio Gomez, Santiago Arias Franco Date: February 2019 - May 2019 Location: Hope Valley, Derbyshire, UK
The University of Sheffield
United Kingdom
This aims to retrofit the Pindale Farm Outdoor Centre and extend it to enhance the outdoor activities that take place in the Peak District by providing sustainable and improved accommodation. As the Peak District has an inherited architecture value, the project meant to preserve its precedent architecture at the same time it provides energy efficiency and thermal comfort to its occupants. The project was put through different simulations to ensure the highest efficiency in terms of daylight illumination, thermal comfort, energy efficiency and the potential use for renewable energies. To achieve these purposes the addition of high levels of insulation and unfired clay bricks locally sourced to achieve a good fabric while keeping the local limestone for exterior walls. The whole project runs on an open loop ground source heat pumps system which provides the heating through underfloor piping saving energy and water. Also, the incorporation of an MVHR system mixed with photovoltaic panels, allow lowering the energy demand up to 66.3 kWh/m2/year.
Improve indoor daylight quality by space re-planing, window-to-wall ratio improvement and use of new and better positioned skylights to avoid use of electrical lighting during day hours.

02 Fire station courtyard. Engaging community with the workers
Sun and Shading
Solar radiation
The building geometry can be modified or reshaped to allow darker places to improve the exposure to daylight. Shading devices in the facade will be necessary to block summer sun and welcome winter sun.
The height of the building is close to the average buildings of the area and is not overshadowed by any of its neighbours. The strategy implemented is to reshape the building to slope the roofs towards the south and west. This will help to maximize the solar radiation.

The University of Sheffield
Project type: Retrofit public facility Studio 1: Sustainable Design Project 1 Professors: Dr Sally Shahzad, Paul Testa Team: Sahil Jaiswal, Santiago Arias Franco Date: September 2018 - January 2019 Location: Dortmund, Germany
Germany
This studio project was a retrofit of the Fire Station 1 in Dortmund, Germany. To understand the project, the first step was to analyse the climatic region and understand the lineaments we were facing. Then, a thorough study on the building itself was carried. Using different software, it was possible to evaluate how the is affected by solar radiation and the prevailing winds according to the building orientation and its surroundings. Then, it was possible to determine how the building is performing in terms of energy, sun and shading, the illuminance and the solar radiation levels. These readings were to trace a guideline in which the project will be developed. All these analyses gave us some key opportunities, which developed into the vision of the project: “Transform the FireStation 1 into a sustainable community centre which will create new interactions and new bindings with its surroundings to establish a multilinear relationship and a sustainable community.”
Dortmund
Enhance community interaction with the Fire Station: Create new community spaces, redesigning the ground floor for permanent and temporary activities. Improve building’s interior access to daylight: Create a void to allow daylight access to inferior floors; increase direct and indirect natural light with glazing and skylights.

Produce energy on site: Incorporate photovoltaics in new and redesigned pitched roofs to maximise solar gain and energy production. Minimise fresh water usage: Create a reservoir to store rain water collected from hard surfaces and pitched roofs.
Wind analysis
Illuminance
All the surrounding buildings have a similar height as the fire station 1. Prevailing winds come from the south west. The building geometry can be modified to create cross ventilation and stack ventilation, along with an earth tube as heat exchanger.
The building illuminance study reveals that due to its irregular shape, some spaces are over exposed to direct sunlight while others are dark and require the use of artificial lights even during day time. Redesigning the facades will help to guarantee access to daylight in all interior spaces.

Pontifical Bolivarian University
Project type: Public building Studio 8: Professional Cycle’s Threshold Professor: Oscar Santana Date: January-June 2014 Location: Medellin’s City Centre, Colombia
Colombia The project developed in this semester is an Arts and Crafts Center which seeks to complement the cultural and historical connotation that the centre of the city has. The project intends to be the launch pad for Arts and Crafts that, in one sense or another, have been lost with the running of time in this sector. The building serves to the public who are interested in getting involved with arts and maybe in learning and developing new crafts.
Pedestrian Connectivity: reconnect the unlinked pedestrian circulations between commercial and cultural sectors. Permeable metal facade: a different option of a louvre facade to protect the building and its inhabitants from direct sun. Interior void arrangement: liberates area in the ground level for public and social interactions, along with improving natural illumination.
The project’s form provides the missing volume for the block’s void which was never filled. The importance of the building lays on respecting formally and geometrically the adjacent buildings, which have been two historical icons in Medellin’s City Centre.

Project type: Public building Studio 7: Special Projects Workshop Professors: Felipe Mesa R., Miguel Mesa R. Date: January-June 2013 Location: Turbo’s Coastline, Uraba’s Gulf, Colombia
Colombia The Turbo’s Port is part of the strategy called “bypass” over the Caribbean Sea, a sequence of ports for the transport between Colombia and Panama intended to be part of the Pontifical Bolivarian University’s proposal for the South American Project, a trans-continental applied research which focuses the efforts in solving the unlinked connection of the Panamerican highway without endangering the ecosystems in The Darien Gap. The port is located in a strategic bay that allows the entrance of high traffic ships. Both for shipment and passengers.

The building is open entirely for the public, as it integrates both the productive functions proper from a port and social and ecological functions distributed in such way that the user can experiment de building through culture, leisure, learning and ecology through composting. The material that was mostly used in the project was timber, mostly local, for the preservation of ecosystems and avoiding the pollution caused by the transport of raw material.

Caribbean bypass route with Turbo’s location and site photos
Why here?
Interior/Exterior Connectivity: the importance of the connectivity with main cities inside the country and with countries outside by sea transport. Strategic Location: its the collecting centre and starting point for exportation of banana products via the Gulf of Urabá, one of the most important in the country. Future Improvements: the location is planned to be improved in terms of connectivity and enhancing agricultural exportation through industrial ports, serving the Caribbean and Colombian economy.

The building is a transport and shipment port which has a public character as it has a mixture of uses and functions. The project allows the inhabitants of Turbo to approach it to socialise, commerce and travel. Inside the building, the program is distributed in a lengthwise way, to allow the users to keep in contact with the public space provided before the building and the sea in front by the Gulf of Urabá.
