// AR CHITE C T U R A L AMB I T IO N The early part of the 21st Century is seeing a paradigm shift toward technology-driven networks, exemplified by the sharing economy and social media. In this globally networked data-centric world the construction industry is rapidly evolving, facilitated by the convergence of technologies. Essential to this is understanding the role the architect has to play in communication, coordination and collaboration throughout the design and construction process to offer unique real-time insights for truly smart and agile urbanism.

[ SCOPE FOR DESIGN ]

40

The site is very linear in its dimensions ( 20mt X 700mt long) giving us very little scope to design outside its limits.

There exists one way roads on either of its side as it is one of the main arteries of old havana town and a buzzing tourist spot. The boulevard was raised into a massing to analyse the spaces that need to be inculcated, quality of tourist life retained and walkable distances measured through ramps along the length.
