so, here`ss the thing: I am working on my master`s thesis in architecture, this project is a part of it, i gave this big lecture on it last wednesday and got the highest grade anyone`s ever got on my school (that sounds like i`m full of myself, but i want to grab your attention and hear some opinions from you folks).
the project was mainly to challenge the whole idea of what`s private and what`s public by means of a programmatic park located on a realtively poor area. This is, a hybrid park that in time could become a surface that could contain a series of Programs (institutes, schools, clinics, hospitals, restaurants and stores) and dialogue with other outdoor activities such as skateparks, wall climbing, bmx dirt parks, public pools, children games, jogging, etc.
here are some images of it, separated in 4 groups: 01-04 general topography of the park general 01-07 5 year views contours 1-18 that form fragment A fragment A 01-04 diagrams01-02evolution + masterplan
sorry if it is very sloppy, if you peepz don`t feel like looking at all the pics, please give me some comments on the ones catalogued as FRAGMENT A 01-04
thanx. pics here

if it snows, followed by rain, those overhangs are gonna have a hell of a time supporting the weight.
i guess i don't really get it but i'm a genetic scientist, not an architect. the pictures are cool looking though.
and i think that its great that a place can be versatile enough to accomodate a guy on a huge unicycle.

ahahahhah the overhangs, the structural plans are not included on these images, but they can support a lot of weight.

cool stuff! the ground of the public park bends, and becomes walls and roofs for the private sections, right? blurring the line between public/private? really nice, and neat pics too.
is the building in general06 an earlier project?

you got it webmaster. that`s the whole point. i`ve been working on bending surfaces for quite a while now. the building on general06 is indeed an older project, not mine tho, but it was useful to ilustrate how habitational complexes could become active on site.
thanx for the comments, coming from an architect such as yerself.
;D

Hey childkiller that looks really interesting. I wish I'd done architecture instead of computer science. Talking of which, do you have any pointers or links which might be of use to a computer science MSc in virtual environments seeking employment in an architecture related field? Thanks

Yeah, it seems interesting. Really nice stuff. I like the building in general 06 (even if you didn´t do it). What programs does it hold? Is it strictly living space?
Is it to be seen as one big project or as a masterplan for a series of smaller ones?
Would there be lots that you could buy? If it´s one big project would this be a project initiated by the city or by private investors?
Are you blurring the line between private and public in a juridical sence as well or is it limited to a spacial blurring? (If the buildings are private the rooftops would probably be private too and then the owner could put up a giant electric fence keeping the public from walking on his roof top. Unless you make restrictions as to what the private investor is allowed (which is the reality in most projects). Have you made restrictions like that?)
Are the structures an illustration of what things could look like or are they to be seen as a completed proposal? (what I´m getting at is: Would there be one architect (you) drawing/deciding everything or would you draw the masterplan (deciding what should be where, where the roads should go, how big the lots should be etc) and leave the details to others?)
It looks really good and interesting, I´m just curious about the deeper layers of your plan since I´ve been working on similar issues myself.
Cheers.

thanx for all the insights peepz.
tonyfish_sorry, don`t know of any links. clone_ calatrava is an awesome architect
zetre_ the idea was to be able to generate a multi-purpose-hybrid topography. i came up with several stages of development, as well as a series of rules that controlled the use of the public space by this programmes. The blurring of the line between private and public is mainly spacial, but for instance, private investors could not use fences, only by means of bending, folding or cutting the surface or trees and vegetation, they could create more intimate spaces within a total that is completely open and that hold it`s park condition. The city would finance the masterplan (one architect and landscape artist), then it would be sold in stages with specific sites for each possible programme, then private architects would design each programme paying attention to the general rules of development. As the masterplan architect, i decide the general uses of the park, circuits, topography, vegetation, traffic roads that dialogue with the park, ilumination and the distribution of private sectors to be bought by private investors.
i hope i answered some of your questions, if you want some more specific info or the written essay just e-mail me.
cheers

hi childkiller
the project looks great!
I am also very interested in bended surfaces and hibrid spaces... watching the pic isnt a surprise that you got the best grade, congratulations, I am sure you will be a great architect, well really you already are.

hmm, this thread is nice. i will probably post a project here this fall, when i'm in the process. it seems like a good idea to get opinions from people outside the studio once in a while(not classmates, teachers), to get a little perspective on things

it is a good place to get interesting ideas, in fact, mr tenzin pointed something out the very first time i posted my project, and his insights (amongst many others) helped me re-shape and re-think some things about the project. Sometimes comon sense and non-architectural opinions are the ones that point out the basic mistakes or misguided ideas in a project.
e-mail me when you do so Gonzola, btw, it is nice to realize that more members other then nacho and me are architects.
