Reflecting on water scarcity
The competition aim is to develop a permanent pavilion in an intersection of the future ecological corridor in CDMX. The project was requested to embrace water as the main concept. However, the proposal seeks to use the concept not as an element of waste in a city where water is scarce, turning it into the element of reflection, in short a water pavilion without water which architectural elements will be complete when rain starts to fall.

Adaptation, from industrial to co-working
Integrate a governmental office program of almost 9000m2 inside one of the most important cultural complex of the city “COFETRECE”, without changing the essence of the original project, allowing not just the correct development of the activities imposed by the program but to contribute to the urban set of the site was the challenge for this competition. The proposal elaborates on a co-working open cloud, a platform elevated where the machine produces, while the ground floor belongs to the most public functions within the different departments, dividing the program in 2 main programmatic and conceptually different environments.

The project is developed on an office building. The task was to adequate 2 available floors into the new headquarters of the GiCBC company. The main concept was to enable a core functional area surrounded by the taskforce of the company. Brick and crystal are the main material used in the project for dividing spaces. Furniture was designed to fit the requirements of the taskforce to maintain comfort and allow flexible configurations.

Unbalanced decision making processes, lack of planning scope and a market-driven development lead by high power interests have shaped the emergent Metropolitan Area of the Valley of Mexico (MAVM) with an increasing spatial fragmentation and social segregation. To counteract the problematisation an adaptive planning framework is proposed linking urban morphology, governance capacities and socio-ecological systems as a way to approach vulnerable areas in the metropolis from a local perspective aiming for a collaborative and evolutionary process. Several areas with the potential to become sub-centers are defined in the territory in order to become strategic locations where endogenous development is possible creating opportunities capable of overcoming segregation and fragmentation by means of enhanced economic and community activities. The research recognizes five main principles (systemic goals) which through spatial actions that act in a muldimensional level (scale, time and actors) stress capacities for adaptation embedded in the selected locations. Seemingly, potentials for connectedness and activation from a bottom-up perspective are revealed through exploration by design implementing a scenario construction.
