Tijuana Parasol

This parasol project was a social & urban built initiative by Amorphica to mitigate the lack of public spaces in one of Tijuana’s communities.

Camino Verde is a low-income, 30,000 person community in Mexico with the 2nd highest violence-rate in the country. It was established in 1984 by immigrants that settled in the outskirts of Tijuana and has grown into the urban chaos that it is today. Our project was to design a public space which would help mitigate the violence by offering neighborhoods a built identity and foster interaction with different habitants. To do so, we recycled old tires, which are abandoned near the site, washed, painted, and assembled the component for a parasol with a very limited budget.

NASA Campus

The NASA campus project was part of Cornell University’s partnership with Ten Arquitectos as part of the AAP New York City program. Architects from Enrique Norten’s Taller were instructors to a studio in Manhattan. The task was to look at NASA and what it meant to be a part of it.

For our analysis, we understood the NASA identity to be that of collaboration, innovation, and discovery. This architectural project capitalizes on the evident sub-communities that exist in the current NASA campus in Cleveland, OH, and proposes five distributed interventions as opposed to s a single building. The notion of scale drives this design as even within each of the five interventions, the space is fragmented so as to provide as many experiences as possible while offering users a single dwelling for congregation.
