Architect and Urban designer
4MOTIVATIONMy main inspiration is the people
I am applying for collaborating with you as an urbanist and architect. My experience as urban designer, small architectural studio cofounder, head of the special projects department in an automotive corporation, and my latest success, the completion of my masters in urbanism and strategic planning, have uniquely prepared me to understand and solve projects for meeting both, our clients (capital) and the final users needs.
My personal objective is to develop sustainable projects that consider the social agency as an important part of the design process. I believe that the lessons learned during the fieldwork of my master thesis from the slums in Ecatepec de Morelos, Mexico about sustainability, eco-nomy and self-organization, can be a powerful tool to reinterpret the contemporary city and should be taken into consideration when designing urban and architectural projects.
Moreover, I consider the landscape as the strongest dialectical element in any territory, as it is the environment in which we live the one that shape us, and at the same time, it is us who constantly re-shape the environment. I am convinced that as urbanist, architects and planners, it is our task to make this dialect a virtuous circle instead of a vicious one.
I am relocating to Brussels and would welcome an opportunity to talk with you about the open positions. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Ana Sabrina Martinez Feria

LANDSCAPES OF INCLUSION AND THEIR MOVING SPACES
Ecatepec de Morelos is a mosaic of fragmented realities hosting a multicultural environ-ment. A landscape shaped by religious rituals, social traditions and a strongly rooted co-llective imaginary. It is an unfinished product mostly sculpted by informal urban practices, spaces in constant evolution (Turner, 1963), non-stop moving areas (B. Jacques, 2001) that use and create the landscape as a language of perpetual conflict and compromise be-tween what is stablished by the authority and what the vernacular insists upon preferring. (Jackson 1984:148). It is a territory that demands its own right to the city by reclaiming the streets as a collective democratic element (B. Jacques, 2004) were scenes of [civic] public life and activities of exchange take place.
Located in the northern part of what used to be part of the Lake of Texcoco. The majestic 260 km2 lake has been reduced to 17 km2 in 100 years. The dramatically shrinking water surface, the risk of flooding events and obsolete drainage system combined with high risk areas of subsidence obliges us to think about new solutions, visions and strategies when approaching this territory.
I propose to recover what should be the most important resource and identity of the area, the water.The three transversal water structures (A,B and C) and the Grand Canal shown the left map, are projected as carrying structures for purified water distribution while serving as storm water runoff and graywater collectors. Both viaducts and open chanals, discharge todays considered wastewater, into the seven urban lakes along the territory. These basins are designed to create large public parks and water filtering infrastructures for processing this element through constructed wetlands and storing it in some of the rehabilitated Lake of Texcoco reservoir for future domestic and agricultural use.

INTERPLAYING DENSITIESVision for Taihu 2040
Academic projectEMU Programme - KU Leuven
location: Taihu, Beijing, Chinaprofessor: Kelly Shannon, Viviana dAuriateam: Ana Martinez, Calin Lambrache, Dennis Schowers, Ray Qin, Sam Khabir, Tianlu Chou, Yuvi Chauhan, Jonas Knapenscope: urbanism and urban design proyectdate: February 2012 - June 2012
INTERPLAYING DENSITIES
Beijing is booming at an unbelievable speed. In thirty years the city has grown up till its 6th ring road, where the Taihu municipality is located. The massive migration from rural to urban metropolis and the opening of the new high speed train station that connects Tianjin with Beijing, creates a strong trend of urbanizing the area. We believe that the challenge is to create a city that allows growing and shrinking. A dynamic, flexible, multifunctional city that rethinks density as a way of regenerating the urban fabric while creating a void occu-pied by a high-tech productive landscape. As a result, our project focuses on offering three diverse lifestyles - Ciquizhen City, Jin Kuang Villages and the Lian Villa -
Ciquizhen City is proposed for people wishing to have a healthy and intense outdoor life. The main idea is to create a car-less city were the public realm is completely designed while the private areas can be projected according to the inhabitants dreams.
In Lian Villa, we have created a sanctuary specially for those who aim to live in balance with nature. We developed a natural-like man-made landscape network that connects the different villas to a series of get-away spaces, designed for their comfort and enjoyment. Moreover, the development gives them the opportunity to produce their own organic food, while living in a first class villa that can be shaped according to their needs.
The Jin Kuang Villages are multilayered small/medium enterprise networks, that bring pri-vate and public investments to the area providing trading and training facilities along the Xiao Tai Hou River. The project aims to protect the traditional villages, while regenerating the urban tissue. This is archieved by developing new housing typologies that combine work and living units.

GRAN VIA, THE METROPOLITAN STREET OF SABADELL
The Gran Va in Sabadell is today mainly used as the main car connection between the City of Barcelona and its northern metropolitan area, creating a strong barrier between the downtown (north) and the industrial town (south). The proposal re-thinks the highway as a suburban clamp that reintegrates both sides of the city proposing a new cultural spine with public plugge-in programmes for leisure, heath, education and housing. The project is reinforce by a multimodal mobility network plan, which will allow the down-grading of street and therefore, the decrease the amount of vehicles for creating other types of activities.

HERCULES - LA CAADAtowards a policentric city
Academic projectbachelor architecture- ITESM Queretaro
location: La Caada, Queretaro, MexicoProfessor: Alfonso Garduo, Carlos Gmezteam: Ana Martinez, Aurelio Valtierrascope: Urban/Architectonic designdate: August 2009 - December 2009
HERCULES - LA CAADA
Santiago de Quertaro is one of the most important cities of Mexico. It is located 178km from Mexico city and forms part of the industrial area called Bajio. As many latin american cities, during the last 30 years Queretaros urban sprawl has grown up to 16 times more, without any fixed plan or design. This undergraduate exercise was done to understand the agents of growth of the city while recovering the identity of the neighborhood Hercules and La Caada. These are the barrios were the indigenous people settled back in the day of the colonization. Moreover, this area is known as the place were the spring-water was collected and transported towards the city center. Today an almost deserted highly polluted river is all that remains. The project aims to recover the river side while regaining the old centrality of the area.

RECOSTRUCTION OF PALAZZO CAMPONESCHI
The earthquake of 2009 in the region of Abruzzo affected mostly the city of L Aquila. Today the city looks like what could only be described as a post-disaster abbandoned area. To restablish the economical activities, some organizations decided to begin with the recons-truction of the most imporant monuments. This exercise was done for a competiotion held by the municipality of L aquila during a period of three months summer internship in Veni-ce. at the studio Rizzi Proteco. The main activity I performed was the production of three plaster models for explaining the relation and importance of the Palazzo Camponeschi and the city. One 1:500, 1:25,000 and 1:100,000

NORTH DEVELOPMENT
The Development of Santa Rosa, will be the first sustainable project of these dimensions ever built for the Quertaro City. In an hybrid yet fragmented city that has them both, his-torical and industrialized potentials, remains the nostalgia of the down town city center as the place where things happen in contrast to the contemporary city where sprawl has taken place taking away any kind of public space. The development is conceptualized with prin-ciples of New Urbanism, where the idea of a poli-center city linked by urban and suburban system of parks and plazas.

MEDITERRANEO DEVELOPMENT
The first project I had during my intern was to take the Fraccionamiento Mediterraneo in Corregidora Quertaro (made by another firm) and redesign it with more economical and spatial values. The original design functions as a cluster with 129 houses without any kind of public space or commerce area. The redesign project archived 120 dwellings plus 22 spots for commerce and a small community park keeping the sizes of the housing plot of the original plan.

CABAA XACH
The Cabaa Xach was a project taken when half of the house was already built. The clients had several problems with the former architects and decided to change firms. The challenge in this project was to reinterpret the shell of the house and reshuffle the inte-riors to better fulfill the clients needs. Moreover, a third body was requested projected and approved by the clients.
House re-oriented towards the landscape. Interventions: the main facade was practically deniying the landscape. We redirected the central body by proposing a glass facade due to its public function
