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.
●COVER DESIGN● KONSTANTIN MEL'NIKOV DVD
DVD cover design for the documentary Konstantin Mel'nikov digitalized for AAGRAFA.
I think this is one of the first covers I did for AAGRAFA. When I arrived, they didn't usually make covers to the videos they were creating on DVD, but I managed to convince our boss, Ildefonso to bring us a color printer that printed blank DVDs from the near by offices to our workplace. Even we didn't have a lot of time to do fancy stuff, just being a two hours a day job we all tried to bring some color and design to the ETSAM library video archive.DVD DETAILS

Short animation film to test a four frame per second animation.
I needed a kid's voice for this animation test, so Atxu Amann generously invited me to her house with her kids Javier and Josetxu. We improvised this story and many others while eating cookies and playing with Star Wars lightsabers. It was a funny afternoon.
●DVD DESIGN● DAI 1 2003 OBSESIÓN: LUZ
DVD authoring that collects moments from Atxu Amann's DAI 1 class in Architecture School of Madrid (ETSAM).
This was the first DVD I have ever designed and authored and I remember it was a big pain to discover how all this new stuff worked. Looking back at it I fell embarrassed by the design of the menus, they are ridiculously ugly.DVD DETAILS

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.

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 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.

Music: 'Exodus from the Underground Fortress' from Symphonic Suite AKIRA

Recorded with Canon DM-XM1 MiniDV camcorder
Architecture School of Madrid, October 2002
To make this video I used the footage recorded by Ricardo Santonja in the architecture school drawing classes. I digitally altered the images to produce the burned black and white style and I accompanied them with the fabulous soundtrack from Katsuhiro Otomo's AKIRA film composed by Shoji Yamashiro. The video pretends to be a dialogue between this piece of music that I love and this bunch of reused footage.

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.

A Project by Cristian Alvarez, Elena Calvo, Alba Rodriguez & Ioannes Busca
Shot on miniDV in ETSAM, Madrid in April 2003
Short film created for the first year DAI 2 class (Drawing Analyzing and Ideation 2) with professors Atxu Amann, Marta Maiz and Ricardo Santonja in the Architecture School of Madrid.
It was our first year in Madrid ArchitectureSchool and Elena, Cristian, Alba and me end up teamed up to make a short film for DAI class. I believe this this is the first time any of us worked making a video. We managed to borrow a JVC miniDV camcorder, but end up editing on VHS... then we played the VHS tape back on a TV and re-record it again on miniDV, to finally import this footage to Adobe Premiere and add the music. We had a great time.
