Brief description of the project

Córdoba

Infantil”” Urban Translator

“When the house is small, the street is all”

Arch. Gustavo Restrepo

As the result of a complex analyse of the neighbor-hood and sustained with the results of a survey we made to the people that lives there, we came to the idea of creating a youth center, in order to provide the younger ones with the best education and the support that they need (and lack). This project aims to take the kids out of the street, and to keep them far from all the delincuence and the drugs that sur-rounds the zone.

This building would be their first public bulding, their Urban Translator , and it counts with a Kindergarden, a Childhood Museum and a Multipurpose Room.

Living the 2.0 way

In an old neigbourhood of Córdoba which is under a renewal process, the “2.0 House” offers a new and different way to understand the changes that all the recent advances in the communications have done to the daily living.It is a common fact that all the centres of the im-portant cities in all over the world are crowded, and that the house seekers prefer to live in the periphery because the terrain there is much cheaper and there is less noise. This is translated in one of the big-gest problem that cities have to front: the unlimited spread of the urban area.As an alternative to this question, the project offers a new tipology of residence where the same building is able to give its inhabitants the opportunity to work from home, based in the “tele-work” and in the “co-working” concept, with plenty of workspace in the ground floor, including courtyards and meeting rooms.

Thinking in the future of these two cities, the year 2033 to be more exactly, we analysed their growing tendencies, all of their urban subsystems and all the possible future scenarios, to finally arrive to the S.U.M project.

S.U.M assigns to each city some main roles, develop-ing to its maximal potential the ones that they use to have, and creating new ones based on their location in the deparment and in the country. The masterplan also conceived the political, economic and environ-mental precesses that will have to front, taking into account each strategy/project priority, cost and date of beggining.

Developing “area” brandAs a work of interior architecture, we designed the main store of a company focused on skaters. They sell clothes, sneakers (the most profitable product) and skates with all its accesories. The idea of this project was “to bring the street inside”, so we rethink the urban equipment and translate it to a white-yellow-black language (brand colours) where the ramps, stairs, pipes, urban signals and the lights are the main actors of the different sceneries.

As a first approach with the tensioned structures we designed a path cover that links the old and the new building of the Architecture’s Faculty. This is a light and removible design, that can be easily assembled, do not affect any building and also works as a water tank in the central part, recolecting the rainwater to be then utilized in the watering of the grass in this sector.To understand the physics of this new structures, we counted on 3D models, Computer Simulators of the forces, hand drawings and with the creation of a real scale model .

Tension: 80Kg/m2area: 20m2=1600Kg=1,6tn

Scale measuring: - Traction: 1,12tn- Compression: 0,48tn

Traction divided in 2 tensors= 0,56tn each, but both load to the same dead weight.

- Dead Weight: 4m x 0,45m x 0,80m x 2,4tn/m3=- Dead Weight --->3,5tn

It is able to resist 3 times the load of the tensors.

“There is no architecture without action, no architecture without event, no architecture without program.”

San Vicente’s NeighborhoodBrief presentation

LocationSan Vicente is an old Neighborhood of Córdoba. It was one of the first “town city” to be constructed. In its beginings this neighborhood was used for the rich families to locate their weekend house. Then, the town grew up and turn into the industrial pole of the city, emerging lots of factories and warehouses. Nowadays, the factories are gone and the situation there is of marginity and a degradated urban envi-ronment.

Córdoba

San VicenteX

An “Urban Arts School” as a youth’s center for encounter, expression and work. A school with the goal of developing a social inclusion program that integrates education, art and social organi-zation as a means of promoting the group and individual development .

Oriented in addition to facilitate the strengthening of identity and their insertion in the labor market, through the acquisition of knowledge and devel-opment of new capabilities.

The project will be the “second home” of the urban artists that will work in the streets, and because of that our main idea was to “bring the street into the school”. This explains why we worked the cero plan as the most important one, and why it blends with the vehicular street in front that is next to the project.

The school area blends with its surrounds and is integrated to the housing complex next to it.

A slope between the outside lower court of the school and the intern alley of the housing complex is what delimitates it, eventhough both areas can be used by the students and the residents.

The interiors have plenty of natural lighting in order to reduce the energy consumption produced by artificial lights.

The complex embodies has, in addition to the school, a 4 floor residential complex to allocate a the always increasing demand of housing.

The indoor hall/street is a social place where all the students can gather and interact. It also provides the opportunity of “taking the classroom out”, as each of them has an expansion to this central area.

Redensification in San Vicente

San Vicente X

Like it is usual with the industrial zones of the 1900’s, this neighbourhood grow up givin its back to the river, and locat-ing there all the factories. Nowadays, all the industries have been relocated or abandoned.

Attending to the necessities of the neibourhood, the pro-posed urban project aims to give a solution to the differents fronts:

- Determine- Give response to the dormitory demand (the centre of the neigbourhood is crowded and with no more space to keep building)- Prioritise a main street axis by incorporating green and sidewalk widenings to link important historic and commercial buildings.-Formation of internal courtyards, lined with semi-public pas-sages.-Linear-Park at the edge of the waterfront.-Create new institutional buildings by recycling the old ware-houses, each of them dedicated to the main social, environ-mental and economical needs of the inhabitants.

““Not only is the city an object which is perceived (and perhaps enjoyed) by millions of people of widely diverse class and character, but it is the product of many builders who are constantly modifying the structure for reasons of their own. While it may be stable in general outlines for some time, it is ever changing in detail. Only partial control can be exercised over its growth and form. There is no final result, only a continuous succession of phases.”—

¿LEED?“Leadership in Energy and

Environmental Design” is the most renowed# certification of Sustainable Constructions. It is promoted by the USGBC from the United States and has certified some of the

most importante buildings all around the world.

RefereeArch. GARCÍA ARRIEN, Diego degarcia@falabella.com.ar

It was an excellent experience where I could learn from the most capacitated experts in each area, and to work with them hand by hand.

As the Chief Architect’s right hand and the encharged of the Leed Certification I got the chance to assist and arrange all the meetings and overseers with the different specialists, taking note and graphic records of the works that had to be done, and then manage all the remaining tasks in order to materialize the project. This included the draft of the technical plans and specifications (when not given by the technicians), the administrative & legal issues, and the eco-nomic part. Every step of this process meant an active participation in order to deal with the workers of each area, including the providers and the construction workers.

The expansionBy 2009 the Falabella Store located in “Nuevo Centro Shopping”, Córdoba, had 3200m2 and its authorities decided to make it grow almost 3 times that size. This construction had the complexity of being running a huge work and having to deal with the store opened to the public at the same time. The construction had to be done under the rules and specifications that the “LEED for Commercial Interiors & New Buildings Certification” stablished.
