CORDOBA LIQUID CITY New Operative Water Landscapes. Essay on the Southern Canal. YEAR: 2016 PROGRAM: Urban Design - Recovery of Water Infrastructures TYPE: Undergraduate work - Final Thesis (UNC) LOCATION: Cordoba, Argentina TEAM: In collaboration with Bruno Fontanetto - Santiago Valente TUTOR: Arch. Javier Giorgis Top Graded, recommended to be published by the jury International Competition: “CURA Rios Urbanos� (Urban Rivers Recovery) / SECOND PRIZE

In Cordoba, blue infrastructure has disappeared from urban landscape: surface water is reduced to the dirty back of the city. How do we recover water infrastructures that are now obsolete or disused? How can we reinvent them in contemporary key? The project come up with a Water Atlas for the city, outlining objectives to handle our blue treasure in a sustainable way and locating green areas where the work of water and landscape can improve water resources. Then, the plan focuses on an essay on the Southern Canal: a hidden infrastructure opens up, integrates into the city, and becomes a public space.

Restoration of the Built City: The intention is to take advantage of the existing environment and to reinvent it, thinking about new multiple uses for it. The project aims to reuse and reconvert historical infrastructures, revealing their hidden potential. Environmental Recovery: Adaptation of blue infrastructures to recover public space. A more efficient management of water infrastructures and increase of public green spaces. These are the new productive and operative water landscapes. Social Reparation: New urban fabric, including social, collective housing and facilities to generate a socially-viable environment. | 02

TRANSITIONING INFRASTRUCTURES [1:45.00]

Towards integration of Koliwadas fishing communities in Mumbai YEAR: 2019 (Spring) PROGRAM: Urban Design TYPE: Graduate work Option Studio: Extreme Urbanism 6: Designing Sanitation Infrastructure (GSD) LOCATION: Mumbai, India INSTRUCTOR: Rahul Mehrotra

The Koliwadas fishing villages are in a state of transition in Mumbai, and at risk of losing their cultural identity and space in the city. The project explores transitional solutions towards their integration, building scenarios where they acquire recognition and legitimacy, while strengthening their economic role. The project understands how the fishing activity operates at different scales and aims to reconfigure it in a more efficient form, by improving the basic infrastructure and adding new programs to those interventions. The results are new infrastructure pieces

that become urban amenities, enhance sanitation, enable the integration process and trigger further development. At the urban scale, the Koliwadas become new centralities in a scheme that seeks to create connections between Mumbai’s central mobility railway spine and the city’s West waterfront. At the neighborhood and settlement scale, the project focuses on Mahim Koliwada, creating three main transitional pieces on its edges. These multifunctional infrastructures are composed by service point areas and exterior flexible and adaptable bamboo structures that accommodate fishing activities and new livelihood opportunities.

RE-IMAGINING WOBURN Urban Complexity and Suburban Productivity YEAR: 2018 (Fall) PROGRAM: Urban Design TYPE: Graduate work - Elements of Urban Design Exercise 2 (GSD) LOCATION: Woburn, MA, United States. TEAM: In collaboration with Zehui Gong INSTRUCTORS: Yun Fu - Rahul Mehrotra

The sprawl model that has been built in the last 50 years is not sustainable. We are consuming land in a way that is disastrous in ecologic terms. Therefore, the need to empty part of the land and leave it for productive landscapes and natural ecosystems and consequently densify new centers and clusters. But, how to do it? The project works on three scales testing the idea of emptiness and densification in Woburn, an urban peripheral area in the Greater Boston metropolitan region. Starting from a territorial scale, the depopulation of the suburbs and densification of new cores is proposed. A mobility

system between towns is essential, so a new tramway system constitutes the first step of the sector scale facing stages. From this point, the project grows incrementally: with new green and blue Infrastructures and three new clusters where density and diversity is concentrated. In the final scenario the sector is completed with productive landscapes. The aim is to create a new self-sufficient village that produces and recycles what it consumes, where neighbors can benefit from the complexity and density of the urban, as well as from the openness and landscape qualities of the suburban. | 16

RETHINKING THE SCALE OF THE COMMONS YEAR: 2018 (Fall) PROGRAM: Urban Design TYPE: Graduate work - Elements of Urban Design Exercise 3 (GSD) LOCATION: East Boston, MA, United States. TEAM: In collaboration with Jose Esparza INSTRUCTORS: Yun Fu - Rahul Mehrotra

The project is the result of an exercise that looks a site located in East Boston, at the junction of Boston city and the Greater Boston region, transitioning between the urban core and the periphery. The site used to be a marsh -condition that changed with the gradual fulfillment of the land-, but will inevitably return to its origins as flooded area with sea level rise. Therefore, the different scales at which the commons operate in the site can explain the main strategy of the project. For the territorial scale, we designed the water and ecological systems restoration and reconnection.

The regional scale proposes the marsh reservoir extension and a new remediation park. For the city scale, the new commons are the three urban corridors that allocate multifunctional programs: the west corridor research programs and laboratories; the middle corridor community and education programs; and the east corridor financial programs. Finally, in the neighborhood scale, the common spaces are the blocks courtyards. The project is thought in different facing stages, understanding that the process of constructing the commons involves a collaborative process to co-produce shared, goods and services at different scales. | 18

FRACKING LANDSCAPES Mapping socio-environmental conflicts in Vaca Muerta, Argentina. YEAR: 2019 PROGRAM: Urban Planning and Design - Landscape Architecture Research TYPE: Graduate work for the Penny White Research Fellowship at Harvard GSD LOCATION: Neuquén, Argentina TEAM: In collaboration with Stefano Romagnoli

A new paradigm towards energy has been established in the twenty-first century. The term “energy transition” speaks to a broad and visionary idea, based not only on re-imagining the generation and diversification of the energetic matrix, but also on the democratization of the resources, and the debate on access, protection of the environment, culture, and social impacts. In 2010, Argentina discovered one of the major unconventional oil and gas reservoirs of the world: The Vaca Muerta Region in Patagonia. Until today, only 3% of the reservoir has been exploited. However, in less than a decade, the entire landscape

and urban configuration of the region has been reshaped. This research focuses on making visible some of the socioenvironmental impacts and effects from the fracking industry at multiple levels and across varied themes in Vaca Muerta and Argentina, reinforcing the idea that better public policies, planning, and design are particularly necessary to achieve spatial justice. The research is centered on the diagnosis and documentation of the actual conflicts of the region, to raise awareness about the inequalities that the fracking industry is generating on the environment, culture, society, economy, and infrastructure. Fracking Landscapes | 22


Historically, Patagonia has been thought and developed as an extractive area, leaving aside a just and proper relationship with its communities and environment.

The infrastructure deployed on the territory shows how resources are transported to the large consumption centers of the country. Fracking Landscapes | 23

ALLEN

Productive Node in the Alto Valle of Rio Negro Allen is a city of 27,433 inhabitants in the province of Río Negro. Its traditional economic activity, which continues to be the most important, is the fruit industry. Together, the region produces more than 90% of the pears and apples in Argentina, occupying the first position worldwide as an exporter of pears and the eleventh in the world apple trade.

(Copade, 2016). However, there is a clear conflict between the installation and expansion of the oil and gas industry in the area and the fruits and vegetables production. Fracking is an activity of difficult coexistence with productive areas, and this becomes evident in the fact that the fruit industry production is decreasing.

AÑELO

Vaca Muerta´s Capital Añelo is a boomtown located in the epicenter of Vaca-Muerta. It went from a small village of 2.689 inhabitants in 2010, to a city of 8.000 people today, and that is expected to reach 30.000 in 2030 (Pérez Roig 2016). Its local economy actually highly depends on the fracking industry. However, there is an important agricultural activity in conflict with

the on-growing oil and gas industry today. Furthermore, Añelo is located in an area that historically has been occupied by indigenous communities known as “Mapuches”, that still live and depend on these territories. This raises another conflict -one of land domain- while the fracking industry increases its development in the region.

The plan pursues: on the one hand, tactics for the ecological health reconstruction, recovering in first measure the territory (biodiversity, native habitat, water quality); and on the other hand, the creation of a public environment that generates safe and healthy lifestyles. The new public infrastructure works

as urban catalyst, guaranteeing access to open space and creating a dense, strong, mixed, diverse, innovative and sustainable city through collective housing. The project contemplates the coexistence between residence and its necessary density, with the territorial scale and road infrastructures, through the new urban fabric HDMI: New blocks that solve in their section the containment of the slopes and the relation with the National Route. Its elevation allows a direct connection between the dwellings and the adjacent public space, with new urban equipment under this large infrastructure. | 28

M BLOCK The block is understood not as a single and unique building, if not as the construction from minimum units: the plots. It is through different typologies, materials, intellectual authors, users and programs, that the sector becomes a tapestry of activities and diverse uses mixed in countless relationships, as every city need. Social equity and repair of the sector is guaranteed thinking the blocks of the new HDMI urban fabric as mixed blocks, for diversity of users and social classes living together in the same space. The project is developed understanding the place where it is implanted. It integrates with the existing topography, trying to adapt to each level height in a respectful and non-invasive way. The public space that is removed in the footprint of the private buildings rises to the +13 level forming the roof of the same ones, and extending the slope until the link with route 19 and the public transport that circulates there. In the same way, by raising the national route, the space below it is used as support for equipment and programs for the community, and the existing limit is diluted allowing the public space to integrate both sides of the road.

OLYMPIC VILLAGE Housing for the Olympic Village: Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympic Games YEAR: 2014 PROGRAM: Collective Housing TYPE: National Competition + Professional work LOCATION: Buenos Aires, Argentina STATUS: Built TEAM: PASTO + Carballo - Errasti Architects ROLE: General design, meetings, technical drawing (Project development) National Competition “Housing for the Olympic Village: Buenos Aires 2018� / FIRST PRIZE

Intervening in the urban space for the Olympic Village of the City of Buenos Aires, represents a great opportunity to contribute to the development of the southern part of the City. The housing destined to accommodate the participants of the Olympic Games, will then cover the housing needs of local population. The project strategy is based on three scales of intervention: the structuring of urban space and the role of superblocks and its interioir public patios as pieces of infrastructure; housing as the configuration of a high density architectural type; and the module as systematization of typological variations.

The articulation of the residential tipology with the public interior patios allows the creation of new urban spaces annexed to the house, achieving a visual and physical permeability with the new buildings. The interior patio becomes an infrastructure that contributes with environmental services to the management unit (UG). These are large absorbent areas with perimetral retention tanks that store water for reuse in irrigation.The housing building interacts with the interior patios through a third piece consisting of a multifunctional block. The project seeks to think of a fragment of the city with a great environmental and social commitment. | 34

The Residential Building: Is composed of free plans with double ventilation and illumination fronts. The decision to separate from the services core allows absolute flexibility by level. The use of the module solves the typological variability in the same structure, being flexible to the needs of houses adaptation. The results are two-way passing units, guaranteeing the best habitability, the most favorable orientations and the views of the surrounding natural and urban landscape.

ORMA NEIGHBORHOOD Housing Relocation in the Riachuelo YEAR: 2016 PROGRAM: Social Housing TYPE: National Competition + Professional work LOCATION: Buenos Aires, Argentina STATUS: Under Construction TEAM: PASTO + Carballo - Errasti Architects ROLE: General design, meetings, technical drawing (Competition+Project development) National Competition “Housing Relocation in the Riachuelo� / FIRST PRIZE

The competition represents the challenge of investigating the problematic of social housing in the Latin American context and the formulation of a project that contributes to regenerate the public space and the social fabric of the city. The houses will be destined to the relocation of families that live in the slums (Villa 21-24), affected by the contamination of the Riachuelo river. The consolidation of mixed and controlled management units is the key in the formulation of this proposal. The same is structured through Patios - Consortiums that allow the fusion of 12 families. The aim of this action is to create a more

intense and mixed city in both programs and typologies. The intervention strategy is organized in three scales: - City: a new permeable urban fabric articulates Riachuelo river with the city. - Management Unit: Patio - Consortium as management unit. - Domestic Scale: infrastructures as supports and indeterminate spaces as domains of inhabiting. The intervention pursues the qualitative restitution of the urban space and the intensity of uses and programs for the domestic life, in order to create a better city, fairer and more balanced. | 38

TOURISM PARK A new Urban Park for Cordoba city YEAR: 2016 PROGRAM: Landscape Architecture - Urban Park TYPE: Professional work LOCATION: Cordoba, Argentina STATUS: Built TEAM: PASTO + Carballo - Errasti Architects ROLE: General design, meetings, technical drawing (Project development)

The Suquía river and stream La Cañada links three large reserves of green space of the city: East Park - South reserve - and San Martín park, creating a recreational system with a metropolitan reach. The Tourism Park (TP) represents the opportunity to think a link between the metropolitan sports park - Parque del Kempes - and San Martín Ecological Reserve, a redoubt of the city native landscape. In this context the TP is configured as the gateway to this double system of recreational spaces (sports and ecological) being the key point to reactivate the entire northwest area of Cordoba.

Scattered activities are detected in this portion of green space. Also the connectivity is weakened with an unconsolidated coastal edge and streets with little readability. To activate this sector, the proposal designs an array that re-reads existing activities and hosts new activities. The Tourism Park is organized in 7 management units (UG) allowing to plan its execution in time, and activation of programs and uses. The two management units structuring the park are those that consolidate its logitudinal connectivity: UG1 - Rambla river Sightseeing and UG5 - Ecoboulevard. | 42

AÑELO CULTURAL CENTER YEAR: 2018 PROGRAM: Cultural Center TYPE: National & International Competition LOCATION: Añelo, Neuquen, Argentina STATUS: Project TEAM: In collaboration with Mateo Gamba and Fernando Matos ROLE: Principal designer. National & International Competition “Añelo Cultural Center” / FIRST PRIZE

The town of Añelo is located surrounded by oil fields that quadrupled their population in less than 20 years. In this context, the creation of a new Cultural Center (CCA) is understood as a first step in the social integration of the locality through culture, enhancing the attraction and mix of the activities of the center as well as the public space that surrounds it. The project is strategically positioned in front of the central plaza. The new program focuses on two bars that form a new façade and are linked to the context through two patios of different quality. 2 PATIOS: The Institutional Patio Hall is the point of access to

the building which allows its relationship with the plaza and the exterior public space. The Cultural Patio, expands the activity of the working spaces of the CCA. 2 MODULES: The cultural program is structured in two modules. One bar that allocates the auditorium and dance hall linked by the Patio Hall (Exhibition Module); and a longitudinal bar that allocates the service, administration and workshop areas. (Educational and Administrative Module). The construction system used is Steel Framing, which allows a fast and efficient construction. | 46
