The house was designed to be higher in relation to its surrounding neighbors to enjoy excellent views of the Chipinque National Park and the Cerro de la Silla Mountain. It is made up of simple geometric volumes with challenging structural solutions intending to evoke an image of lightness.The interiors are plain, although the central concrete circulation tower

contains a sculptural staircase with a surprisingly high space, where natural light is captured through a series of museum-like skylights. The BC house is also a study on energetic efficiency. It was provided with diverse systems of insulation and a landscape project made out of native vegetation.

On a sloping site, adjacent to the Sierra Madre Moun-tains and with impressive views of the city, we were given a site for a single-family house of five.

The house has large street presence and was solved in various levels that responded directly to the site’s to-pography allowing us to design a very open project that still gave plenty of privacy to the family. The concrete base served as a strong support for the white stucco and black volcanic rock volumes that rest on top of it.

House C is a project that explores the relation between the outside and inside living areas connecting them visu-ally and directing the views towards the city. On the front garden level we have the kitchen and laundry room, the family living areas and the formal areas. The sleeping quarters on the top level are ventilated towards a more private recreational back lawn.

Located in the city of Monclova, this historical building has undergone several reformations to serve different uses. It dates from the late 18th century, when it was originally built to serve as a Hospital for the then province of Coahuila. After that, it was used as a prison during the war of independence. In 1906, it was designated district jail and in 1910, a century after Mexico’s Independence, a monument was built in its plaza to commemorate Don Miguel Hidalgo. Its last formal use was strictly military before it turned into government offices and a museum of regional history.With the idea of rescuing the historical edifice, a very important steel company from the city of Monclova

proposed its restoration to serve both as its current Museum use and as a cultural center.Even though the building was structurally strong, our proposal projected the maximization of space with new uses including a climate-controlled central patio, art facilities, permanent and temporary exhibition galleries, a restaurant, storage facilities, historical archives, a public library and a parking lot. The landmark of the project was its new roof cover that would replace an old glass cover that created a green-house effect.

This shopping center was designed to extend the most vibrant area in Playa del Carmen to a residential zone blooming with tourism. The program takes advantage of the maximum allowed density resulting on a three-story shopping center with large roof terraces that can serve as extensions of the restaurants, bars and cafes adjacent to them.

This semi-enclosed plaza, becomes a meeting point for locals and tourists alike because of the vast offer of services and gastronomical options. The material palette was carefully chosen to achieve a project that is both contemporary and respectful of the existing context.

Lincoln East is a mixed-use building located in the historic district of Miami Beach. Like many of the buildings by Enrique Norten, this project is a careful study of volumes assembled to fit a structural module. The white concrete façade offers a structurally simple and economical solution to this elegant complex. This development is formed by a four-story, L-shaped volume that breaks and slides to continue five more stories up. The remaining space created opens the

building to the surrounding city and forms a roof terrace with a pool area. Opposite to the residential area are retail spaces framed by a huge overhang that welcomes the visitors.

The residential units range in size but are planned as vacation homes and offer one and two-bedroom condominiums.

Formerly “Edificio Monterrey”, Urbania used to house the headquarters of a local insurance company. It was designed and built in 1958 by Architect Ricardo Gua-jardo and Armando Ravizé. Fifty years later, the former office building was re-planned to become a 130-unit building with apartments that range from 45 to 150 square meters.

Our intervention was carefully thought out to respect the history of the property but to revive its use. The first two levels of the project continue to serve as retail spaces, the third and fourth levels were designed for office spaces and the rest of the structure and original brick

walls underwent a careful restoration process to rescue the building’s original architectural modern character and become lofts. Also, the addition of 4 levels to the 15 story structure accentuates the verticality of the building and the transition between the original façade and the new addition.

Urbania will bring new life to Monterrey’s city center, an area that has been gradually abandoned by its inhabit-ants. It is a project surrounded by pedestrian areas and with easy access to restaurants, shops, cafes, as well as subway and bus stations.

Magma Towers is a mixed-use complex with residential, commercial and retail spaces located in the exclusive area of Valle Oriente in Monterrey, Mexico.Its two-story base forms a retail wall towards Frida Kahlo Street, leaving prime storefront space towards this busy city corridor while designating the back street for office space. This pedestal holds two monolithic gray towers that create amenity space

between them that includes: lobby, pool, bar and common areas.To comply with the market’s needs for the project, the façade helps create the necessary mix of apartment types and sizes generating an image of great compositional freedom. Inside a same building double height lofts meet penthouses, and one and two bedroom apartments of various dimensions.

As the Panama Canal expands in 2015, The New York Harbor, namely Staten Island’s North Shore will see a growth in maritime industry. This project intended to harness the potential growth of Staten Island’s maritime industry as a catalyst for job creation and the re-consideration of existing infrastructure.

New infrastructural typologies will provide the maritime industry of the North Shore with much needed commercial space, as well as provide residents of St. George new jobs, job training and a transit system to access these, all while addressing issues of boundary and access to the waterfront.

New York became an industrial and commercial center because of the connective potential of the regional water system, extending from the Atlantic Ocean, through the Hudson and East Rivers, connecting to the Erie Canal and gaining western connection into the Great Lakes. Today, its uses are fragmented by the region’s increasing dependence on inefficient roadways and truck transport, wasting time, money, fuel, and potential.

Currently this wasted potential is affected by the inefficient road-based system of freight transport in the New York City Region. Additionally, the city’s regional water system is not being used to its potential

and its inherent connectivity between industries could be improved.

FREIGHT LINK is a “freight ferry” system which will fuse NYC’s industrial network, allowing it to work more efficiently and stimulate economic growth. This mediating infrastructure will reconfigure the current freight supply and distribution system, usually centralized (Port Elizabeth) and then trucked to individual locales; by creating a network of secondary ports along NYC’s waterfront. Additionally, a network of smaller barges or freight ferries will transport and expose both small and large industries to more efficient regional connections.

Trucks in NYC:* Constitute more than 30% of particulate matter. * Emit about 20% of all smog-forming Nox

Barge Benefits* The most fuel efficient transportation available and reduced air pollution* Fewer trucks adding to highway congestion* Increased access to markets

The relatively recent opening of the former Eastern Block countries leaves Ukraine, and Kharkov especially, open to the potential of market-driven networks. There is promise here within this fabric for Kharkov to become an important commercial and business center for Eastern Europe. Live-Work Urbanism intends to spur development via the catalytic injections of incubator-platforms; the intention is to reignite professional and educational networks as well as leverage for the surrounding development of housing, services, amenities, and businesses, creating a denser, more vibrant city which can compete within the world market.

Kharkov possesses a number of important assets that are currently not being utilized to their fullest potential. These assets include a substantial student population, as well as a number of higher educational institutes in a variety of fields, including medicine, art, aerospace engineering, architecture, and information technologies, among others. However, these institutions remain autonomous and fragmented within the city fabric, currently unlinked to industry, and unable to mutually benefit from symbiotic relationships that currently do not exist. The incubator-platform is a solution because it provides the opportunity for these connections to exist in key places within the fabric, not only strengthening the social and educational landscape of the city, but the spatial landscape as well.

Industries, which at one time were the great economic generators for the former machine city, now often lay fallow in the city fabric, unused and abandoned. Furthermore, patches of vacant land located strategically proximate to this industrial fabric, existing tram lines, as well as educational institutions can be seen as ideal opportunities for deliberate development opportunities for the city of Kharkov, in direct opposition with the city’s current growth model.

Development is presently directed by a master plan strategy with focus on outward growth. This plan values inexpensive farmland, the expansion of wider roads and the removing of tram lines. This model reduces the viability of the urban center and promotes an abandoned middle ring.

Kharkov is slowly transitioning from a former Soviet regime into a free market economy. Our proposal identifies key places that will promote the change needed to both boost development in the core and bring new economic opportunities for its citizens.

This project utilizes social motivations and triggers in order to spur infrastructural and spatial development, to repopulate towards the city core in order to regain life and vibrancy. It identifies important sites which will act as urban centers with an incubator-platform as its economic engine from within repurposed industrial buildings. Important support programs and infrastructure will develop in adjacent vacant space, including housing, services, and revitalized tram lines and stops. Scalar and architectural cues from the existing city fabric will allow for a more sustainable type of growth. Finally, these new neighborhoods will resultantly fill in adjacent low-density areas over time with new businesses, housing and services to create a resilient and restored middle ring.

In the current world economy, urban transformation in Kharkov will require investment in strategically located projects. Redevelopment of live-work culture within the middle ring will serve as catalysts for change by leveraging a range of actors: both local and international students, faculty, professionals, and create networking, idea exchange and business opportunities in a global economy.

The new incubator-platform typology will reignite professional and educational networks while functioning as an economic engine from within repurposed industrial buildings. It will act as a catalyzer of new neighborhoods that will resultantly fill in adjacent low-density areas over time with new businesses, housing and services to create a resilient and restored middle ring.
