DESCRIPTION
Walking along the riverside of Badajoz, it becomes clear that this is the
materialization of the relation between the city and the Guadiana River.
However, the quality of existent spaces along the interception line of
these two realities shows that the intention of bringing the city to its
river remains to be fully achieved. Eventually, the walk path parallel to
the river becomes imperceptible as it comes closer to elements that,
due to scale and other characteristics, block its humanization and
consequently dictate the absence of a purpose at its ending.
Therefore, the idea is to create that ending, receiving who comes from
the riverside walk with two platforms – one at the level of the path, the
other at the level of the river. Then, a dike makes the transition to the
other margin, designing a water-square with the river limits (meant
for the scale of the city) that counterbalances the imposingness of
the hills but on the horizontal projection. Upstream, the water level of
the dike becomes higher, intensifying the relation of the city with the
watercourse – in this case, an affluent of Guadiana.
Finally, the implementation of the public baths building concludes the line
by materializing its ending and giving it the missing purpose – one that
suggests people to use and live it.
The memory of early public baths at that place is recovered while
intensifying its interest with tensioned relations between built volumes
and resulting water spaces.

DESCRIPTION
The proposed cultural facility includes an extensive program with an
infrastructure to host different cultural events (approx. capacity of
2000 spectators); an equivalent underground parking lot; a park with
leisure areas and greenhouses to grow flowers; and a square that not
only articulates the new cultural facility with the Basilica di San Lorenzo,
Cemitero del Verano, and the University Campus, but also creates the
necessary conditions to set a non permanent flower market or any
other outdoor event like such.
The conceptual intention behind this project is not a simple addition of
spaces and functions, but rather a structure that works as a whole –
utilizing systems of integration and interaction – and is, within itself, not
only a place but also a process enabling machine.
The idea of a machine that enables processes and stimulates reactions
is expected to be the fulcrum for the urban regeneration of San Lorenzo,
but its optimal functioning depends on the creation of auxiliary systems
of interaction and communications that keeps a sense of connection and
fluidity regarding the dichotomy between the people and the place.
These systems exist, once again, as a whole, but to better structure
and understand the thought process behind them, subdivisions can be
established as for their nature:
A first one, of local interactions, defined by an idea of sustainability
and supported by low-tech mechanisms; and a second one, of global
interactions, defined by an idea of cultural interactivity and supported by
high-tech mechanisms.
The first system reuses another one, currently almost extinct but once
quite significant, in which local craftsmen would sculpt marble pieces and
produce the gravestones for the cemetery.
With the extinction of this labour, the demolition of the workshops
(degraded and without urban consolidation) becomes unavoidable, as a
similar kind of logic can be implemented in a preferable way – the growth
of flowers in a new structure created for that purpose (greenhouses)
and their sale. The same structure would also enable, besides a closer
contact with nature in a fundamentally urban environment, educational
activities and the idea of sustainability, as it would be possible for a local
resident to rent a space for his own small-scale agricultural production.
The second system uses the several structures of the cultural complex
as communication interfaces. The greenhouses become mobile – moving
along rails and permitting space changeability and flexibility of its use for
different events – and obtain communication properties since they not
only get lit in different colours but its material is also touch sensitive,
which creates direct interactivity with users.
The main hall is also designed with the intention of receiving
multimedia projections on its exterior walls turning it into a privileged
communication hub – for instance, to promote future or current cultural
events.
This interactive system can be activated in several different ways, the
standard procedure being the use of projections prior to the event, and
the full activation of all mechanisms from the moment it starts, this way
sending a clear message to the city.

ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION BY INVITATION
FROM FACOLTà DI ARCHITETTURA LUDOVICO QUARONI - UNIVERSITà DEGLI STUDI DI ROMA
DESCRIPTION
The goal of this proposal is to create a system, working on the territory
scale, that allows to enjoy the landscape and perform several activities
of agritouristic nature.
This system is translated into a clear gesture that is to redesign two
lakes, and connect them with a walkway parallel to an existent waterline.
A new implemented facility reuses an already deactivated industrial
structure (a ceramic factory from which the hovens are kept) and
is formed by a multifunctional area (that works as reception to
costumers), a wing of guesthouse rooms, and finally a suport structure
for agricultural activities - all connected by a cirridor that ends in a
magnificent viewpoint for the small town of Gubbio.
A subsystem - of public and semi-pulic spaces, formed by a square,
automotive circulation areas and gardens - allows the functional
implementation of this secondary system (the facility) onto the main one
(the lakes).
The conceptual intetion behind these systems is to create agricultural
resources that visitors can utilize for a certain period of time, while
staying at the comodity of a guesthouse. They can rent their own
farming space as they enjoy all that this region has to offer.

ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION
MASTERPLAN, PRELIMINARY DESIGN
DESCRIPTION
A concrete platform that lies over the slope, and the white body of the
naves that stand on it - these are the two gestures that not only define
the process of the project, or its construction, but also represent the
atmosphere of the spaces created:
the first as support for a community - as a place to learn, share
experiences, or pray;
and the second as a moment of faith celebration.
The emotional load felt within these spaces comes from the way the light
comes in, the simplicity and axiality of their form and the pureness of
their materialization.
When arriving, the churchyard proceeds the prominent concrete façade
- with a sobriety that contrasts with the reflections of the dark blue
tilework cladding its indentations. A wooden door leads to the interior.
The nave, also in wood up to the human dimension level, then turns into
a pure white that extends to the ceiling and the altar, where it’s flooded
with light from a strongly symbolic vertical opening.
On the lower level - the support platform - a pastoral centre lives around
the inner courtyard with several facilities such as a chapel, classrooms,
technical areas, and an events hall that also opens to a square on the
exterior.

UNKNOWN SOLDIER MEMORIAL2013
LUANDA . ANGOLA
ARCHITECTURE COMPETITION . PROJECT MANAGEMENT BY PBARQ - ARQUITECTURA PAISAGISTA
RESPONSIBLE FOR ARCHITECTURE PRELIMINARY DESIGN
DESCRIPTION
An opening on the main stairs of the grand platform allows to perceive a
passage to the inner square, confined by the platform itself.
This square anticipates the entrance for the memorial, and is meant to
emphasize the emotional side of the ceremonies that may occur inside.
The entrance leads down to a corridor that distributes the visitor to the
Tomb room on the right, and the Chapel on the left.
Apparently similar but with distinct depths, these rooms are visually
connected by an element that works as an axis and creates tension
between them - a water plane on the vertical projection of a voided
tower that fills it with light.
Contrary to the exterior spaces of this memorial that praise the
achievements of the country and its army, the interiors reflect the
emotional dimension and respect for the symbol of the Unknown Soldier.
Its materialization - exposed concrete and white marble - suggests a
certain weight and coldness that somehow is counterbalanced by the
warmth of the light over the water.
