●MODEL DESIGN● PLAZA ECOPOLIS






 




700×150×50 mm aprox.
Cardboard and plastic


Model design for Ecosistema Urbano architects office for their latest project: Plaza Ecopolis. This working model was use during the building's development phase as part of a mayor project that aimed to regenerate a plot on the outskirts of Madrid, a place surrounded by transport infrastructure and adjacent to an industrial estate into  a public space for social interaction.
I met Jose Luis Vallejo in Madrid Architecture School where I was studying at the time when he was teaching there. When the semester ended he offered me a one month internship in his office developing this model that later became a real building.

●CONCEPT DESIGN● SIKA CONTEST ENTRY

Proposal created in collaboration with Laura Currais and Pablo Muñoz, submitted to the 2009 SIKA Student Architectural Competition.
This years rules were to create a temporary basement in the Caiman islands and put there all the politicians of the world so that they would fix the economical crisis that we were suffering... so for a utopian proposal what better than  a hyper-realistic solution. Laura was from Vigo so we thought that the ship could be produced there creating lots of jobs in the area. Then it would go around the world picking up the politicians to finally settle down in the Caiman island we all together they would resolve all the worlds problems (?)...Then of course the ship woul be reused as a luxury transatlantic. We didn't have much time to createa a hyper-realistic looking drawing of a transatlantic so we just took an amazing drawing by Stephen Biesty from his Incredible Cross-Sections books and ripped it out. If we had won we would have send a check to Mr Biesty. But that, sadly, didn't happen.

Product and ad design for ETSAM Architecture School class.
After making the home commercial campaign of DUSTLIC, I decided it would be fun to try to do some international variations of the printed commercial. I did this Japanese one with the help of google translator, my apologies for the Japanese readers, I will try harder next time.

●CONCEPT DESIGN● DUSTLIC

Product and ad design for  ETSAM Architecture School class.
We had to take something in this years design class and improve it, so I decided to take my new Ikea Lersta lamp  and design a plastic cover for it  to prevent dust from getting in when I put it looking upwards so that the light is not direct when I am reading. I name it DUSTLIC because is a piece of plastic that avoids dust.  The project was explained with this printed ad campaign that would communicate the idea to potential consumers, because after all, what is the point of solving a problem just for yourself?  If this problem affects to millions of owners of this lamp what better than make people know that this problem  can be solved right now with DUSTLIC. I belive that the only way of reaching the attention of consumers is by commercial campaigns that explain the product in an easy way so that everyone can understand them.

Panel conceptualized together with Beatriz del Castillo and her team mates, presented to the 2008 SIKA Architectural Competition  organized by SIKA. The panel was awarded with a mention.
This year the theme was "profitable city" and the goal was to maximize the profitability of a generic city. Our idea was to merge the colors of the city's infrastructures with the colors attributed to brands. Coke is red, Orange is obviously orange and Caja Madrid has a green bear as a logo.

●CONCEPT DESIGN● LEAVENING BOX




210×147×30 mm (Folded: 460×340 mm )
Photo and Digital image
Ink jet on cardboard


Box created as a final presentation in Madrid Architecture School. The box collected the A5 size cards with the multiple ideas and project approaches that were generated during the semester.  
The idea behind this augmented  version of the original ROYAL baking powder box is to create a metaphorical image of each card being a dose of leavening that can make something else grow or can grow by itself in something more than just an idea, thu becoming a real project. To transform those projects in reality we created a company and we name it AA&NN.

Design for a Architecture projects class in Madrid architecture school.
Intervention on a dwell in India. The proposal is a kind of a huge mechanical umbrella that is activated with the rain water and covers the visitors from the sun while it indicates the periods of rain.

●CONCEPT DESIGN● MOR GAN I & II prototypes


MOR GAN I
Opened: 60×60×60 cm | Folded: 30×40×15 cm
Working Prototype
PVC and staples

MOR GAN II
Opened: 90×90×90 cm | Folded: 45×45×25 cm
Working Prototype
PVC, staples and fiberglass rods


Product design for Madrid Architecture School class.
I designed these prototypes in a design class with professors​ Aranguren + Gallegos. That semester they entrusted us with the work to get a material and give it a new use. The main idea was to create a membrane that would cover the user, that was foldable and transportable and that could be built using simple materials and folding operations.

●ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN● INTERVENTION IN UPPER LAWN PAVILION






Four boards
297×420 mm each
Digital and traditional techniques
Ink jet printed on paper


Proposal for an intervention in the Alison & Peter Smithson's Upper Lawn Pavilion developed for architecture design class in Madrid Architecture School.
I discovered Alison and Peter Smithson's work in a school trip we did last year to UK, where we visited many of their buildings. This year we had to choose an existing house from a list, draw it and analyze it first, and then make a proposal for an expansion. I chose these architect's Upper Lawn Pavilion. While researching to find information to draw the house properly, I found their books and texts and is then when I really started to understand their approach to architecture. Magnificent, clear minded, honest, human scale architecture. Nothing to do with what we are used to see now a days in magazines.



●ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN● MOLLER HOUSE EXTENSION

594×420mm
Traditional and digital techniques
Ink jet printed on paper


Architectural proposal for a pavillion in Adolf Loos Moller house's backyard developed for architecture design class in Madrid Architecture School.
Memory  
From the start the project is thought not only as a pavilion for people who visit the house but a meeting point where anyone can go, stay and talk with other people. The backyard of the house is a nice space for that.  
The proposed building is basically a prefabricated metallic arch that is seven meters high in its upper part and crosses the garden from one side to the other, covering the 98 square meters of it and transforming it in a polyvalent space. The textile roof that covers the structure can be folded, opening the space to the rest of the garden. These textile walls are also used as projection screens.  
All the furniture and systems needed are provided inside four modular blocks that keep everything hidden while not in use. All these content  grows through the pavilion and is moved by the visitors themselves, who for example can take a chair, use it and return it to the block when they don't need it anymore.

●ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN● ARANA HOUSE EXPANSION

3 boards
594×420 mm each 
Traditional and digital techniques
Ink jet printed on paper


House extension proposal for Arana House in Ribera del Manzanares, Madrid. Developed in the second year architecture design class in Madrid Architecture School.

Memory: 
The expansion of Arana house in the Ribera de Manzanares is a complex project due to a law of conservation of buildings with a certain typology established years after the making of the house. That means that any alteration in the House has to be done now with the actual normative and basically the full house would have to be be modified in the case of intervene on it. That is the reason why the house has not suffered any renewal work from the outside for a long time. 
However, the needs of the inhabitants in the house have change through the years, what makes an expansion inevitable. One of the sons, who is a Star Wars figures and models passionate is looking for a bigger room to keep on collecting stuff. From the start, the decision of putting a container in the flat roof of the house was an idea that seemed to work. This kind of industrial element doesn't try to mimic with the house but with the cinematic imaginary that filmmaker George Lucas created decades ago. The contrast with the house helped to emphasize the idea of an alien ship that rest in the roof. 
As the extension is just a prefabricated element that is put on the roof without the need of mayor work, the problem of having a license to build is avoided. The façade of the house itself is not modified and in the worst case scenario, if the element has to be removed, this is a task that can be done easily. 
The user can access to this  container elevated in narrow columns from the terrace and from his old room through a spiral stairs that connect both spaces. The interior is completely diaphanous so the user can organize the inside of the room depending on his needs thanks to articulated screens. The floor works also as a container so that there is no need of extra furniture to keep things and space is liberated for other purposes. The fact that the container is elevated makes it possible to use the space bellow during all year long, keeping the user away of rain and sun and making a perfect spot to rest while looking at the river from the top of the house.

●ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN● UNDERGROUND MODULES


594× 420mm
Traditional and digital techniques.

Architectural proposal for a first year course in Madrid Architecture School.
Intervention in Preciados street in the center of Madrid. The idea is to make personal capsules that came out from ground so that peasants could hide, rest, read, sleep or whatever they feel like doing in that moment. A moment of  solitude in the middle of the crowded city.

●ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN● Proposal for a SKYSCRAPER in MADRID



Three boards
594×420 mm each
Traditional & digital techniques
Ink jet printed on paper


Skyscraper proposal in Castellana street in Madrid for the first year architecture design class in Madrid Architecture School.
Memory: 
A skyscraper in the middle of Castellana, with surrounding buildings not higher that ten stories. The proposal consists on a building clearly differentiated in two pieces. One expressed as a huge concrete element with not many apertures on it that has the same height as the surrounding buildings and a second piece, that grows from there, consisting on a perimeter structure that leaves a full glass façade behind. This structure would also work as a brisolei.
This external differentiation of the concrete piece in the bottom and a lightweight structure mounted as a later enlargement is reflected on the interior of the building. The first opaque part is where conferences and reunion rooms are located and behind the big glass façade is where offices are located.
The building is organized inspired by Richard Rogers Lloyd's building were service and served spaces clearly differ. Vertical communication such as stairs and elevators are in the east façade, while north façade keeps all the installations. The goal is to keep a square plant as versatile and free as possible.
