Graph Machine Learning – A Study on Preventive Strategies for Femicides in Mexico City
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
Crystal pavilion
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
THF / PIXEL-HOF
Pixel-Hof reimagines Tempelhof, Berlin’s iconic 386-hectare airport, into a vibrant, sustainable urban oasis while addressing the housing crisis. Our innovative project weaves modular homes and dynamic activity spaces into a responsive pixelated grid, honoring the site’s historic spirit. Extending and morphing the existing plot grid to the site’s unique forms, we create conservation zones and … Read more
THF/PARK-LOOP
Tempelhofer Revamp: Confronting Berlin’s Housing Dilemma Tempelhofer Feld, once a bustling airfield, holds a significant place in Berlin’s rich and complex history. Originally opened in 1923, Tempelhof Airport was one of the world’s first commercial airports and played a critical role during the Berlin Airlift of 1948-1949, when Allied forces supplied West Berlin amidst the … Read more
