Foreword Sergio David Hernández Pascual
I´m a design and construction Architect with 11 years of experience on private sector companies and my own studio, with an speciality in Management and Business Development and studies for Manage Mentor at Harvard. At this time I found myself enrolled on the second semester (of 4) of the Master in Science on Lighting Design at Aalborg University in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Tagensvej 17, 5tv 2200 København N Denmark
Since I´ve finished my studies of Bachelor in Architecture, I started working on private sector companies, until 2013 when I founded my own studio of architecture design & construction, called Matatena Arquitecturav in Mexico City, in which I looked to set on practice my skills in design, construction and management learned on my previous work in private companies as in the postgraduated studies, focusing on the client needs and relationship as in the creative process.
+45 52 80 44 70 arq.pascual@gmail.com Due to my restlessness to expand my knowledge about the interaction
of architecture, media technology, and light, both in interior and urban design, I decided to choose Lighting Design as my future career and incorporate this into my previous knowledge and experience. My perception about the relationship and experience of the people with the spaces and the urban context in which we live in, is that it can be exalted with the proper use of light, both, natural and artificial, mixed with digital media, can also generate changes in social behaviour and health care. It has become critical for me to acquire and develop skills about light use and its applications, to being able to generate emotions and deep feelings into the users, in order to contribute to the develop of solutions for visual impact, visual pollution, health care and energy savings trough the creation of fit to suit projects for each particular situation, through the combination of architecture and lighting design. I consider myself as an integral designer, passionate about my profession, pragmatic, creative person who is constantly looking for solutions to common problematics, in a continuously pursuit of improvement, as a person and professional, looking forward to continue serving society from a different approach, hard worker, enthusiastic, open minded, adaptable and team player guy who can contribute to others and learn from them at the same time. I appreciate the time you have dedicated to review my CV & Portfolio, hoping to hear from you soon, Sergio David Hernández Pascual, Architect.

Relighting the campus:
AAU Fitness room *In colaboration with Andreas Ramdhal, Anna Rosa Hiort & Ilo Tarrant.
Aalborg University Copenhagen provides a fitness room that staff and students have free access to. This windowless room is located on the ground floor of the university, and has been referred to by users as ‘a dungeon.’ This is possibly a large part of why the space is so underutilised.
Countless studies have linked academic success to regular exercise, including a study by Dr. Stewart Trust that ensures ‘fifteen minutes of physical activity improves concentration and memory among students.’ We are confident that we can use the power of lighting design to transport users from this windowless room, to a space that is both functional and beautiful.

Design
Criteria & Scopes
1. Ambient. Improve the ambience of the space by providing a base level of light when users enter; enough to see rough shapes without detail. This will create the general atmosphere in the room. 2. Function. Provide enough light to perform specific tasks, with the right CCT and CRI.
function
3. Energy. Make the room more energy efficient by matching the lights that are on with the use of the room. This will also make the space less uniform and more dynamic.

-In front of the mind´s eye are three elements in the perceptions of visual design-three elemental kinds of light effect which can be related to the art of painting for easier visualization: (1) Focal glow or highlight. (2) Ambient luminescence or graded washes. (3) Play of brilliants or sharp details. These three elements are also the order of imaginative planningRichard Kelly
Strip lighting in the ceiling creates a source of indirect light, and mimics the effect of skylight.

-Find the best color temperature to make people look and feel good in the fitness room-
Light test
CCT for people Sergio Hernรกndez | Portfolio 2017
To be motivated, it is important that people feel good in the gym, and we believe with the right color temperature this can be supported. From our own experience, and research, our hypothesis is that a warmer color temperature is more complementary for the users. The test was carried out with three spotlights of different colour temperatures. The temperatures were measured with a Asense Lighting Passport spectrometer.

Lighting Design | Student job 2017
Conceptual lighting purpousal for the new school at Islandsbrygge skole using Normasym product catalogue. Four stories building with a basement in which is allocated the sports room of the school, over 1,000 sq meters conform this project in which the lighting set plays one of the most importants roles on the learning process of the kids. The architects had a general scheme about the lighting that should be used, which further was developed for this purpousal. I added the trees concept in the corridors of the classroom in order to encourage creativity and movement in this spaces that could become dark alleys. 19

The surprise element as a mirror of childhood, is innocent and natural, surrounded by objects and casual effects. A rainbow, a moving shadow, colors, the dance of a baloon on the sky, are elements that makes us go back to our childhood memories. Condesa alley in Mexico City is the location for the purpousal, surrounded by classical buildings, two nets hangs over the user, fulfilled with translucid baloons with strings to interact with the pedestrian, the ballons are enlighted from above, creating a color carpet on the pavement which moves according to the espectator action while pulling the strings of the ballons up and down. 25
