Selected university projects
Nau de les Arts
Factory Refurbishment. Thesis

​​
The cross-cutting concept has practically become a fundamental requirement when thinking about contemporary art, and even in general culture. The fact that knowledge and technologies of many disciplines can crisscross itself leads to the diversification of specific knowledge and has opened new lines of investigation.

 

This project aspires to become an engine of exchanges and proposals, and wants to operate in its environment as revitalizing activities as varied as reading, visual arts, theater and music,...

Nuredduna

Garden based on the poem "La deixa del geni grec"

​​
The narrative poem "La deixa del geni grec" was written in 1900 by Miquel Costa i Llobera and won the Englantina in the Jocs Florals of Barcelona in 1902.

 

The name of Nuredduna was made up with the word nur, that means "fire" in East languages, and nuraghe, Sardinian name for the talayots (stone monuments). Nuredduna becomes the personification of the sacred fire of the tribe.

New downtown

Urban project sited in Barcelona metropolitan area

​​
The project consists of creating a new central area in the middle of the municipalities of Sant Vicent dels Horts, Molins de Rei and Pallejà.

 

This new center lies tangent to Llobregat's park, a protected but very careless area due to its limited accessibility. We take advantage of the redirection of the interurban roads and we transform the national into an urban road. We establish a direct and comfortable connection with Barcelona creating a new tram line.

Creation of spaces

Perception of the surroundings

​​
We often think architecture adds a volume to the landscape. We followed the opposite direction, the subtraction of a volume, to create two spaces with natural surroundings, taking a person and what it sees as a designing tool.

Multipurpose building and Research center

Parc Mediterrani de la Tecnologia

​​

The university campus of Castelldefels is organized on both sides of a central street. The project seeks to create a plaza as a meeting point at the end of this axis, and enclose it with two new volumes: a multipurpose building and a research center.
