The MAA is a visionary master program with an innovative and open structure, mixing diverse disciplines, shaping professionals capable of producing theoretical & practical solutions towards responsive cities, architecture & technology.
As part of my thesis research, I had an opportunity to join the residency program at the Autodesk Technology Center in Boston, where I continued refining my proposal, but now with the benefit of access to cutting-edge facilities and experts in the field. Autodesk, a global leader in design and technology solutions, develops tools that … Read more
La creación de Santa Fe fue resultado de la intensa expansión que experimentó la Ciudad de México en los años setenta, concebida como parte de una estrategia de reordenamiento urbano. Aunque en ese entonces no se hablaba en términos de reciclaje urbano, esta iniciativa abordó aspectos que hoy se consideran fundamentales en ese concepto. Las … Read more
Our project harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to predict the deflection and curvature of bamboo elements, aiming to enhance their structural performance in various architectural and engineering applications. This innovative approach allows us to anticipate how bamboo will behave under different loading conditions, ensuring safety and efficiency in design. By predicting the deflection and … Read more
This project aims to develop a web-based application designed to optimize the construction of various architectural elements. The project requirements include several specifications from the user, such as the type of architectural element, its overall dimensions, and material selection. Additionally, the project involves specific training of a model using generated structural datasets from Karamba3D, which … Read more
For the last two decades, Mexico has grappled with an escalating wave of violence that has put the entire nation on edge, but it is particularly alarming and dangerous simply for being a woman. This alarming trend, characterized by uncontrolled levels of violence and fueled by a deeply ingrained misogynistic culture, underscores the urgent need … Read more
The task is to apply the logic of natural phenomena to architectural scale. Considering the hexagonal extrusions that were developed on the Kangaroo surface, Its been decided to do a pavilion with climate responsive facade system. When I took another look on what kind of responsive system i should go for, I’ve found out that … Read more
The selected elements from my catalog serve as the foundation for this exploration, culminating in a volumetric design that integrates various features. Key characteristics include a facade excavation for natural airflow, an exposed staircase spanning the building’s length, and a core ‘fish bone’ structure, reminiscent of the Pedregulho Housing Complex, enclosed by a curtain glass … Read more
We are daily exposed to negative environments and situations in our daily lives, such as city noise, spending a lot of time indoors, lack of greenery, and long working hours. Studies have shown that we spend 35 hours per week in such conditions and that stress is a major cause of illnesses. The best stress … Read more
