K AY I W E N Architecture Portfolo 2021
CON T EN T S In this portfolio I will expose some of the works I have done during my professional career and as a student of Architure School.

From the conception of ideas to their transformation into tangible goals, each process comes with its own challenges, entangled together, to finally compose a poetry that interacts with the users and their environment.

B E A C H H O U S E B A C KYA R D A N D INTERIOR DESIGN Private Project Design for Wen Family
The concept of the design of the interior for this house was around the idea of embracing the tones of the nature like wood, stone, sea and plants because the owners of this house love natural tones. The idea of using wood sofas is conceived as a funtional object due to its durabilities against the scratches of their mascots and at the same they act as a beautiful division between the living room and dining room. Due their cultural cooking styles, they requested the design of an outdoor kitchen and also a big area where they could hold parties in the exterior with their friends and families, while mantaining an area to grow different types of crops during the year

Proposal for Zonification Change As a result of these requirements and the characteristics of the site, which has a pluvial ditch crossing across the lot, considerable slope in the posterior area and the needs of a interconection of the neigboriring lots with the alleyway, the form of the roof and the distribution of the plan was analized to solve all this matters in the design.

PROJECT VN Proposal of Residential Project for Design Class
Proyecto PN is a residence located near the beach, conceived as a vacation home. The distribution of its spaces was analyzed under different parameters such as wind, connectivity, aesthetics and function; and its shape is originally inspired by House V of the firm EL EQUIPO MAZZANTI, breaking the symmetrical polygons and turning them into honeycomb shapes. It has approximately 1000 m2 and it is surrounded by walls with irregular patterns, with spaces that invite you to spend time in it, it is the ideal house to organize parties, spend vacations or simply to be an escape from the constant rhythm of the monotonous lifestyle.

S U STAINABLE PAV I LI ON Proposal for Worshop in the Fundation Enric Miralles
This project was carried out at the Enric Miralles foundation in Barcelonas. The objective was to conceive a pavilion that would be located in the garden of the Saint Pau Hospital, specialized in patients with oncological diseases. The design seeks to create a welcoming space for those who visit it, but at the same time maintaining a sculptural beauty that represents the birth of the butterfly. Its form was born from the exploration with papers while trying origami, and the proposal of its structure is similar to the way in which the Panamanian tembleque is held.
