Description

Main topic: Public Realm Settings and Street Design
Arch - Within the urban framework, the space for an open collective program (markets, meeting points, transportation nodes…) is designed through the definition of a coherent technical and structural logic that translates systems of activity settings into integrated functional opportunities applying rules of geometry and proportion, structural and constructive systems, materials and light.

UD - The street as a first level of urbanity and the essential scene in the public realm. Analysis of activity settings as the unit of place and basic urban interventions as a supportive environment for user interaction. Variables, elements and the sequence of relations that configure streetscapes and their experience.
