“Reimagining Urban Corridors: From Rigid Infrastructure to Inclusive Green Networks” “Urban environments today face critical challenges—population growth, rapid urbanization, and the fragmentation of ecological systems. As cities evolve, their rigid infrastructure often alienates natural systems and creates barriers to inclusivity and sustainability. This thesis focuses on reconceptualizing rigid urban environments by integrating transportation and ecological … Read more
FLOOD RESILIENCE TOOLBOX FOR ADAPTIVE URBAN DESIGN IN COASTAL CITIES Flooding is the most frequent natural disaster worldwide. By the report from The OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development), floods cause more than 38 billion euro in damages worldwide per year. Due to climate change, floods are becoming more extreme and frequent. Coastal areas … Read more
Our studio project is focused on reinventing this site near the Bésos Rivermouth as a biodiverse public space. To approach this project, we started by studying the site through the lens of multiple species, both human and non-human. In understanding what the flora and fauna of this area look like we began posing specific questions … Read more
Key words: Neoliberalism/ Critical Urban Theory/ Spatiotemporality/ Planetary Urbanization The accelerated development of communication and technological systems, and more precisely of intelligent technologies, has significantly changed the ways in which human and non-human coevolution is shaping. Implications for theoretical frameworks include broadening definitions of consciousness beyond the human, reshaping cognitive boundaries in an assemblage between … Read more
1.0 Concept In the evolving landscape of urban development, property rates are influenced by numerous factors, including geographical, socio-economic, and infrastructural elements. Our project, “Urban Insights: Leveraging Open Data for Smart Property Rate Predictions,” aims to create an intelligent, data-driven model to forecast property rates. This model utilizes features such as wards, property types, and … 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
