About me

Currently in the beginning of the third year of Architecture and Urban-ism at the University of Brasilia. I consider myself a person passionate about culture expressions, such as art, architecture, music and perfor-mances. In this portfolio, I have tried to summarize my academic and free time works in order to present my qualities

darcy ribeiro memorial

In this study, I attempted to show the features that define the Memorial as a landscape using the princi-ples explained in The Philoso-phy of Landscape by Georg Simmel. To accomplish that I had to analyze both the building and the influence of its border.

sis Bauhaus Dessau

A study of radials was done using the Bauhaus building. In this analysis, we were expected to show how this primary lines of conception influ-enced in the functionality of the building, as in its form.

As an introduction to ur-banism, we studied one of the submitted projects to the construction of Brasilia Contest.

Contest of Brasília

The project was the third place M.M. Rober-to. Having in hands their presentation sheets, the group had to comprehend their ideas and show it through drawings and graphics on a presenta-tion sheet.

Belved

The project is an entrance to a national park, counting with a restaurant and stores through the way. The site is a canyon , with a stream in the middle of the path. The idea was to use a ramp to guide the visitor through it and lead them to a belvedere where there is also a restaurant.

The Palace of Catetinho building was the first resi-dence of the Brazil’s president when the capital was changed to Brasilia. In order to revitalize the place, a museum of photography was proposed. The project follows the site contours, making it lower than the palace, thus respecting the projects hierarchy. In the end of the exposition, a pre existing square also was rebuilt in order to put the visitor in contact with the local nature.

Benetta island

The world is erupting in war due to the sudden fuels production decrease. The alternatives energy production are not nearly enough to make the coun-tries government run. Only a few nations still holds good amounts of fuel reserves, and they are not willing to share it with the world.

In this Chaos, an Intellectual elite found refuge in a hidden island in the Russian sea. There was built an univer-sity. The arrival can only be made by sea or air. In the first floor, there are the classrooms, the restaurant and the library first level. In the second floor, there are the accommodations, an internal garden and the library second level.

Space of Light

Having Kengo Kuma’s works with glass and bamboo as an inspiration, this projects uses the light, both the external and the internal ones, to provoke feelings in the ones who passes it. The idea was that the visitor could have two kinds of experience. The first one is the architecture as a sculpture, the person can see it, but not come in, just going through the underground passage; or they can experience the building, going through the ramp path.

The idea was to create a space to expose the contemporary artistic expressions through a path that enables one also to experience the sights. The planes composition was chosen to make the building merge with the landscape, giving more importance to the natural sights than the constructed ones. The Iowa School of Art by Steven Holl inspired the project form.

Built to house 700 students, this student accommodation was thought first in its urban scale, to agree with the con-text and to utilize the existing roads and cycles tracks, also connecting the new ones with them. Second, the building features were thought taking into consideration an eco-nomic structure, environmental and climatic approaches, and accessible rooms in the first floor.

4 STUDENTs FLAT

This part of the project focus in the living routine of the students. The exigencies were that every student could only have 17 m². Thus, the project created is a 2-bedroom accommodation. Each room can be sheared by two students as well as -the bathroom. Moreover, there is a kitchen for four students, a laundry area and a living room. Every floor of the building counts with a study room, in case that the students need more silence or to study in group.

Located in the suburb of Brasilia, The Olympic Center of Itapuã is a project that tries to bring more sport events to the area, increasing it income with touristic activities, and offers a space to promote the practice of sport and heathy activities. The place also counts with a public school, which aims to attend the Itapuã’s poor population. The project was divided so that each member of the group had to develop one building of the center , and the urban scale for the entire group. In the center, there are a water park, with Olimpic swimming pools, a covered court, a gymnasium, an administration and school building and a square linking all this four elements. The Covered Court idea was to make a thick plane that for those who see from a distance seems that is suspended in the air.

In this class, the students were expected to produce two 2D and two 3D composi-tions by analyzing the geo-metric language in nature and in body movements and use it to produce art, developing our chromatic and geometric knowledge.

In this part, I tried to use shades of grey to produce fashion and furniture. The color chosen were a dark brown grey, white and black. The idea that originated the chair project was to create a furniture which would suite a cer-tain building. For that, I have chosen The Gug-genheim of New York, the Neue Nationalgal-erie and the Roberto Garza Sada Center.As to the fashion project, the idea was to create a more geometrical and conceptual outfit using figure ground perception.
