Portfolio | Yan Uren, Mexican Licenced Architect BasmentExtension | Illumination and landscape installations project Home renovation project. I joined Julian Arendt and associates midway through the project, to help develop the design drawings for tendering purposes as well as construction drawings. Through the decision-making process we developed presentation materials like models and renderings to explain to the client, the ideas we were implementing on the project. One of the main features of the project was a modern glazing canopy that would bring light down to the kitchen and the new basement extension.


Projects

| Professional work

Working alongside the clients interior designer, drawings were made for the bathroom, kitchen and dressing room. During this teamwork effort decisions had to be shown to the client in a clear and concise manner. Bathroom and kitchen schedules were specified to be approved by the client. Understanding the compromises and needs of the client was a must. Technical drawings for the different contractors were made in order to arrive at the second stage of tendering. Clear renders of the project were also developed to gain client’s final approval on design as well as chosen materials.

Portfolio | Yan Uren, Mexican Licenced Architect MewsProposal | Concept, design and presentation materials Developed with Julian Arendt Associates and MDR Associates, we were invited to pitch in a Mews renovation project in London. A brief with the requirements was provided and images of their current home, where they showed particular interest in a steel staircase that connected the floors and acted as a sculptural element at the same time. So the main design concept was to make the staircase the main element in our design, without giving it all away, thus giving a sense of discovery throughout the house. As well as lowering the basement floor to include a home cinema and a large family room with a high ceiling and large bookshelves. As they had a large art collection we provided the spaces with bookshelves to showcase this as well. After developing a 3D model to verify, that the proposed staircase worked, allowing sufficient headroom and as a formal analysis, We proceeded to add textures and elements to sell our project to the client.

Portfolio | Yan Uren, Mexican licenced architect CoronaCapital | Illumination and landscape installations An event planning company, leader in Latin American, asked Thierry Jeannot to develop an installation and Illumination project for one of the biggest music festivals in Mexico City. Up to 80,000 visitors would go to the festival, during a two day period, would visit from 9:00am - 1:00am. Hence the need for illumination. We were asked to cover the lighting aspects in the entrances and exits. Giving the company a green and socially responsible image through the use of recycled bottles and art.

Sketches First Ideas of creating canopies with bottles, or large treelike structures that people could sit around and have some shade

Centre piece drawing for laser cut Using Thierry’s design, a 12cm icosahedron. Drawings were developed for 22 Calibre steel sheet cut out using CNC laser cutter, leaving space for electrical cable and energy saving light bulb. Then I proceeded to find a manufacturer for the centre piece, where they would be cut, folded, welded by hand and finished in a white powder coat.

In an effort to stay up to date with the trends and as recycling is starting to pick up in Mexico, the client asked us to introduce this to the festival. Working together with one of their biggest sponsors, Coca Cola who wanted to promote the use of their product after it had been used. Rapid 3d prototyping was developed for presentations to gain Coca Cola’s funding re ctu and collection campaigns u r St for used bottles.

On a flood site in the town of Val de Reuil, Plages Arrière won the competition for a 100 Eco home development. Whilst the design was mainly developed we were asked to work alongside a renowned studio, Atelier Philippe Madec. 3D terrain models had to be developed to ensure areas for flooding as well as to include a thorough landscaping design as the site would be accessible to the public.

Most of the work was developed on sketchup for quick design decisionmaking. As well as liaising with planners and the head architect of the project. The different areas were coming together to be able to send the project to tender. The project was made up of five different building types to suit a large variety of needs, from economical to accessibility. This proved challenging, especially in such a short time frame.

Portfolio | Yan Uren, Mexican licenced architect Val de Reuil | Ecological housing development A quick 3D prototyping method was used to settle on a design. From form to colour scheme, the renders were allowing an easier communication between the different studios, also helping to explain the ideas in a more clear and concise way to all the stakeholders. From 2D drawings developed alongside Phillipe Madec studio, we would procede to develop the sketchup models used in the meetings to arrive at a final design solution.

Projects Infrastructure design for small town in Mexico

| Academic Work

Whilst analysing the site to understand the needs of a market, a new requirement came up. Being in a very dry area, the canopy had to harvest rainwater. This could be used to improve the hygiene aspects of the food preparation. “Umbrella” structures were very common in Mexico around the 70’s, These not only provide the necessary shade and protection from the elements, they also allow for the important cross ventilation. These were chosen as they worked almost naturally with the concept of the tianguis. Not only for the space quality on the inside, but the formal quality and colour it could add to the town of Zacatelco. This project was selected to be presented to the local council and planners.

As part of a structural system course, a competition for a bridge was put forward. The requirements were to showcase an interesting yet functional structure, for people coming to a “new life”. We decided to make a progressive change from a hidden underside structure to a dramatic ending where people would feel they’ve arrived to a new place where they could make a fresh start.

Portfolio | Yan Uren, Mexican licenced architect ShangaiPavillion | Finalist in Competition, Pavillion in Shangai 2010 Ground floor plan

Mexico is a large country with enormous social and geographical differences. It’s cities are a clear expression of those differences. This formal, spatial and social diversity, is difficult to represent in a pavilion building. For this reason we sought a common element in almost all Mexican cities, a presence that had remained throughout history and is likely to remain in the years to come, something that represents an essence of the Mexican city. This finding appears in the “TIANGUIS” (Street Markets)., a way to trade that was already present in ancient Mexico and whose components remain the same today. A street is temporarily invaded by the TIANGUIS, transforming the space and urban life. The TIANGUIS is in turn a structure for retail

spaces and chaos in the improvisation of each seller. This appropriation of space in the streets is protected by the same architecture of the place. From this we propose the presence of the TIANGUIS becomes apparent in the pavilion: In the outer (street) lobby and free entry spaces, such as shop, business centre, staff offices and consultation & information area. Buildings of great dynamic formality are confined by the volumes of the exhibition buildings and the restaurant. Just as the houses of a neighbourhood surround a TIANGUIS, that for years has been setting up in the same location. Text By Dr. Jose Angel Campos Salgado

The exhibition areas constructed of steel parts assembled to form a lightweight structure. Linking The envelope of these buildings will comprise a double layer structure; the inside built with drywall panels and the outside skin cladded with prefabricated wood structures treated with fire retardants . This outer skin has a particular interest linking the presence of a TIANGUIS , because of the use of the “HUACALES” (wooden crates used in the transport of goods). Creating prefabricated 2.50 x 3.00m panels of “huacales”, for ease of installation. The presence of these crates will be accentuated at night with the use of LED light sources from behind them.

Between the “Tianguis” space and exhibition buildings, a restaurant showing off Mexican cuisine, will be housed in a lightweight structure whose glass façade will be fixed on the metal structure. Finished with a printed film coating, with patterns from the traditional “papel picado” (Traditional Mexican craft ornament used in Mexican festivities). Next to the pre-Hispanic room, the VIP lounge is located on top of a body of water connected by bridges to the main exhibition area, built in steel and glass in a very modern style. The general principle the exhibition design, is a gradual process of densification of the material presented, ranging from a minimalistic pre-Hispanic exhibit in the to a “cluttered” twentieth century exhibition, referring to the information saturation nowadays.
