NATURE

The project was developed as part of the “Evermotion Challenge 2020”, as a result, he was awarded 3rd place.
The purpose of this work was to draw attention to a number of environmental disasters that occurred last year.
I have tried to share their imagery regarding this problem.

Lake Village

Idealized to be a refuge for the owners’ weekends, this house imposes its presence due to its simple and rural aspect. The great differential of this project was the choice of materials, implanting the houses in the middle of the forest, standing out from the countryside design of the other country houses in the region. The refuges were built in metallic structure and walls worked with plaster and wood. Suitable for cold weather, this system offers greater temperature control and comfortable acoustics. Foundations with concrete piles secured the structure and compensated for the unevenness of the terrain.

Lookout house

Inserida em um lote de 20 metros de declive, a casa emerge do terreno, conformando 3 volumes que se adaptam a topografia do lugar e emolduram a vista da paisagem.

Inserted in a plot of 20 meters of slope, the house emerges from the land, forming 3 volumes that adapt to the topography of the place and frame the view of the landscape.

CGI – GIGA-SCHOOL FIPC

FIPC Fundación Social Alberto Merani is the oldest and most important foundation in Colombia dedicated to improving the quality of education without subsidies or donations. It has a network of 100 private and official schools that have managed to match the academic results of rich and developed countries.

The Foundation developed the giga-schools with the vision of bringing thousands and thousands of children from the base of the educational pyramid, to the level of students in rich and developed countries and thus fulfill the mission of solving poverty without using subsidies, through education.

Thus, the objective of the foundation between 2020 and 2030 is to provide free and high-quality education to 100,000 Colombian students, without using subsidies, making free giga-schools in 5 to 10 macro-projects of social housing.

In conclusion, giga-schools are educational establishments that manage to rapidly improve the academic quality of their students through pedagogies and places that break down the barriers of traditional education. These infrastructures are installed on land authorized by the municipality, which must be provided with public service networks. In this way, the Foundation builds the school with its own resources and operates by managing the joint properties; at least until the last student to enter earns her degree.
