Slow Down, Stop, and Stay. A Public Space Intervention
For the social impact of this intervention in space, in the city of Barcelona, specifically in the district of Ciutat Vella. For the students’ great work of reflection on public space and the gentrification of the Raval. It is also important to highlight the rethinking of new uses of the Plaça dels Àngels through appropriation, involving the neighbours and all users of the square.
De la ciudad al mar
A continuous floor that brings new sensations. Through the natural elements ‘earth’ and ‘water’ it is intended to give the user a flexible design, emptying the container and giving a continuous floor.
The proposal is based mainly on two principles: the creation of gaps in slabs of generous proportions and the creation of thick walls at the ends that serve as a container for all programs and uses.
The intention with the creation of these gaps is to provide the vertical connection of the plants
and give natural light to the house, in addition to the continuous connection with nature.
We propose the creation of multipurpose spaces that generate the thick furniture of the perimeter through different uses or activities. That is why they adapt and convert according to the function. The proposed openings get the feeling of open space and related to the environment.
Calata
For the simplicity and clarity of this project. We have valued the original idea and its essential resolution, which is developed through sustainable self-production to value the craft. The Jury also highlighted the possibility of creating the coat rack to suit all needs, so that there is not only a single design, but it evolves over time.
La naturaleza del conflicto
For the courage of this editorial project, very risky on a graphic level, which shows with a free spirit the situation of the Colombian post-conflict. A work that explores new avenues and confronts in it two key concepts: botanical sampling and war, violence. The use of narrative in the project to discuss social tensions and differences in Latin America is very powerful.
